A draft to ensure a safe and effective system to manage the growth of the whitetail deer population in Oxford was passed at the Board of Alder- men meeting Tuesday . “We have an overpopulation of deer, and it’s become a prob- lem,” said Jimmy Allgood, Di- rector of Emergency Manage- ment and Homeland Security. “We have been working with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks and the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture on a deer management plan to try to con- trol the deer population here in the city to a safe and healthy level.” The city of Oxford has com- pleted the first step of the plan which is a “no-feeding” ordi- nance that makes it unlawful to feed, provide feed or other at- tractants to deer within the city limits and authorizes city offi- cials to enforce the ordinance. As part of the ordinance for the first offense the offender re- ceives a notice of violation and the second offense is a $50 fine and for every offense after that is a $100 fine according to All- good. The draft outlines a plan to Involve the community in an awareness program of how wildlife and humans interact and the impact that they have on each other, develop a Wild- life Task Force that will monitor and update the management plan on a regular basis and de- velop a community oriented set of controls that will limit or reduce the growth of the deer population. “One of the first and im- mediate measures we can take is by controlling the feeding,” Allgood said. “The deer browse throughout the city naturally, but there are people that are feeding them corn, grain and other things to supplement C M Y K LOU SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA FORD CENTER The orchestra performs a preview of its fall concert for children, featuring music from Symphony No. 5 in Bb Major, Concerto for Two Pianos and Or- chestra, and Prelude and Liebestod from “Tristan und Isolde.” 11:30 am - 12:30 pm M ISSISSIPPIAN THE DAILY TUESDAY , JUNE 3, 2010 | V OL . 98, N O . 70 LOU SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA FORD CENTER The orchestra performs a preview of its fall concert for children, featuring music from Symphony No. 5 in Bb Major, Concerto for Two Pianos and Or- chestra, and Prelude and Liebestod from “Tristan und Isolde.” 11:30 am - 12:30 pm this week inside THIS IS WHERE THE TEASER GOES SECTION THIS IS WHERE THE TEASER GOES SECTION THIS IS WHERE THE TEASER GOES SECTION T HE S TUDENT N EWSPAPER OF T HE U NIVERSITY OF M ISSISSIPPI | S ERVING O LE M ISS AND O XFORD SINCE 1911 | WWW .

The Daily Mississippian

Summer is here— the time of fun, relaxation and a break from worrying.

Since when was that true? The summer I know is the time for catch-

ing up on classes, getting a job and living back home with the parents.

Yes, the trips to the beach are fun, and every-one loves catching up with all of the long-lost family members.

It is during this time, though, that we re-ally get to think about the past year and the upcoming one.

I know you are probably thinking, “Who does this random writer think she is to try to get inside my head?”

The truth is, I’m not. I am trying to get in-side my own.

High school is over, as is childhood. College is stuck in this weird place between

being a child and an adult. We try to cope with this confusion with

wonderful summer employment, whatever it may be: internship, coffeehouse, department store, family business.

The main perk about summer jobs is the extra cash to spend on the frivolous vacations your parents won’t pay for anymore.

The bad thing about it is the personal rev-elation that this is not what you want your life to look like—or that it is exactly what you want your life to look like a few years down

the road.So far, I have spent my summer working a

local internship. It is on the same road of what I’m working

toward, but a little far from the intersection I’m looking for.

While I value what I am learning and am grateful for the experience and opportunity, I miss doing what I love; I miss my life in Ox-ford during the year filled with classes, friends and my job.

One thing that I have learned so far is that in the “adult world” that comes after graduation really is not much more organized or different than what we already know.

I look into my boss’ office and see her on Facebook; I glance over at my co-worker, and he is playing a game on his phone.

Times like these makes me wonder who does the work when the intern is gone.

It is nice to go home after a long, sometimes frustrating day at work.

It is especially nice to go home to a mom-cooked meal.

Wait, what? The home cooking has been in short sup-

ply and the rules and curfews are hard to get used to.

Ever want to blurt out, “I have been living on my own quite successfully for the past year”?

It’s ok. I have kept my composure and have avoided the lecture that would immediately follow that statement.

But at least you get to catch up with your old friends, right?

Negative. The amount of people who take summer

classes is significantly larger than what you would expect.

And the fact that you are not makes you think you probably should—-there goes next summer.

The fact is, we are all working towards our futures.

So whether it be internships, jobs or sum-mer classes, the summer that we always looked forward to in grade school is not the same one we see now.

I laugh as my 12-year-old little brother tries his hardest to stay up all night just because he can, while I am trying to get to bed early enough to be awake for work the next day.

I remember being like him—-never being completely satisfied with my day and vowing to top it tomorrow.

When you’re not where you want to be, find your alley and enjoy the walk there.

The bad part-time jobs will teach you some-thing in the end, and knowing that you can do your work just as well as the people who actually work there full-time is quite a good feeling.

The summer we knew when we were kids isn’t gone, it has just changed.

So relax, enjoy the ride and get ready for next year.

WHEN YOU’RE NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE COLUMN

Billboards usually serve the pur-pose of informing the public of a particular message, whether it is an advertisement for a business or po-litical campaign. Billboards do not usually address the president of the United States directly. That is what one controversial billboard in Buf-falo, New York has recently done, drawing attention from the entire nation.

The billboard in question reads, “Dear Mr. President, I Need a Freakin’ Job. Period.” and includes a photo of four college students. Ac-cording to a CBS news release, the sign is part of the “I Need a Freakin’ Job Movement,” which was started by businessman Jeff Baker, who lost his own small business 15 months ago. INAFJ’s website, www.inafj.org, states that the purpose of the movement is to give voice to the millions of people affected by the

high unemployment numbers in America. Their mission statement says, “As families suffer, our political leadership seems content with their dysfunctional posturing. Together we can set the record straight, or at least just make fun of it.”

Regardless of various opinions on the appropriateness of the sign, there is a fundamental message conveyed which transcends party lines: Amer-ica needs jobs. Our nation was built on the muscle of manufacturing; we were once an industrial giant of the world, where jobs were available to those who wanted to work. And yet, as the nation comfortably enjoyed that success, we became lazy and less willing to work long hours in difficult positions. The bottom line? Many manufacturing jobs are leav-ing. Countries around the world are increasing their industrialism and exporting to us most, if not all, of the goods we consume daily. This is definite cause for concern.

President Obama continues to state that those in the government

are working diligently to combat the unemployment rate, with an estimated 290,000 jobs added to the work force in April, as main-tained by the Labor Department. However, of those “added jobs,” no one is really sure what they are, and whether they are the kinds of jobs necessary for stability. Even so, those without work reached a rate of 9.9 percent in the same month, according to the Washington Post, certainly breaking Obama’s promise that the unemployment rate would not exceed 8 percent.

Despite the current heavy divide between the Democrat and Repub-lican parties, the message about jobs rings loudly for both. Americans are not looking for rhetoric or politi-cal dispute, they just want employ-ment. The future of the economy depends on a working America, and the people want their voices heard. We must return to a country where our focus is once again on indus-try, and begin to build not only the economy, but morale. The only way

to do that is by putting people back to work.

The billboard in New York clearly demonstrates the feelings of many Americans. While its message is simple and direct, it has a profound effect. It addresses Washington and those in power straightforwardly, asking them to remember their fo-cus. While other tasks are impor-tant and deserving of attention, the fact remains that nothing else mat-ters unless the American people are working. Therefore, jobs need to be the number one priority.

Controversial though it may be, the “I Need a Freakin’ Job” bill-board serves its purpose. It repre-sents a feeling that Americans’ needs and wishes are being disregarded by their leaders and it places responsi-bility on those representatives to put aside any political agenda and serve the people. Ultimately, this is what our nation is all about. The New York billboard says one thing: Dear Mr. President, when the American people speak, listen. Period.

Dear Mr. President, I Need a Freakin’ Job. Period.

BY JESSICA SINKThe Miami Student, U. Miamivia UWIRE

The only life you’ve ever known has ended. The people you’ve seen every day are now people you see sometimes. The things you did every day are now things you used to do. Times are changing.

You’re going to get a lot of advice. Most of it probably won’t stick, but I’m going to give you one more piece.

Be yourself. Stay true to you. Watch out for number one.

It’s cliché. You’ve heard it a million times. There’s no scientific evidence or scholarly journal to prove that it’s true. But it is. You’ve got to be yourself.

Many moons ago, when I first ven-tured out on my own, I was excited to become a new person. I was going to be cool, hang out with cool people and

do cool things. All my bad habits were going to melt away, and I would be re-invented.

I took a poetry class when I was 19. It was a longer class and on breaks sev-eral students would wander outside for a smoke. I liked those students. We talked in class and seemed to click. I always went outside with them, feeling awkward that I wasn’t smoking.

Halfway through the semester, I showed up with a pack of Marlboro Ul-tra Light 100s. My classmates looked at me. One of them, Ben, laughed and said he was going to hell.

Five years later, I’m still trying to shake the habit. I have body spray in my car so I don’t smell like an ashtray when I go places, I’ll brave the cold when I have a nic-fit, and I’m in denial about the very real danger of cancer.

And here’s the real kicker: My class-

mates didn’t care if I smoked. They al-ready liked me.

If I had accepted that I was a likable person, I’d be a non-smoker right now. I would have more money in the bank and a longer life expectancy.

I would have had I been myself.Now, don’t get me wrong. Healthy

changes are always good. Having goals to eat breakfast in the morning or to study Spanish every day aren’t compromising your identity. Eggs in the a.m. aren’t a cornerstone of who you are. Sometimes, the restrictions college puts on you are going to make you feel like you’re los-ing your identity. But don’t confuse not wanting to do something with who you are. This is higher education and much will be expected of you. Take care of the

responsibilities you’ve signed up for as an undergraduate, but don’t be afraid to question.

If you’ve been raised liberal but have ideas you feel are conservative – research that. If you have been raised Christian and are curious about Buddhism, Google it. Love Library, located two buildings west of the Union, houses thousands of books. Don’t be afraid to read them. This is college, after all. This is a place for growth and change. A place where you find yourself and hopefully become comfortable and confident in your unique perspec-tive – not a place to be buried by falsehoods or someone else’s expec-tations. It’s okay to question.

Don’t feel pressured by anyone or any idea that you should be a certain way.

You’re young and impression-able (even if you think you aren’t), and there are people who want to take advantage of that. Many busi-nesses and organizations are eager to swoop in when fresh meat comes along, because they know the fresh meat is eager to belong. Clubs and jobs are great ways to meet peo-ple when you don’t know anyone, but be careful. Don’t pigeonhole yourself or close yourself off from other experiences and people in a misguided effort to do the op-posite. Try joining a club in your major or become involved with the

new Multicultural Center. You can build valuable connections which will help you with your education and introduce you to a wide range of people – without compromising your “youness.”

When preparing for this column, I consulted a friend. I asked him what he thought about being an incoming freshman. He had this to say: “College is like a do-over. Any of the pre-conceived notions people may have fairly or unfairly had about you in high school that affected the way people perceived you in your day-to-day life … don’t exist anymore.”

It’s true. If you were unpopular at your high school, no one here

knows. More importantly, no one cares. The same goes for being pop-ular or nearly any other social stig-ma of which you may have been a victim. The wonderful thing about college is that everyone is different, but you’ll undoubtedly be able to find people like you.

Listen to me when I say you don’t have to listen to me. You’re going to make a ton of mistakes. You’re going to try to fit in and sometimes it will work, but some-times it won’t. Please, though, try to remember who you are. You’re the only constant in your life, and if you turn your back on yourself, no one else will be able to see you either.

their diet.”The draft also includes tech-

niques and tools used to aid man-agement by using lethal methods such as community managed hunts and trapping, and also outlines alternative nonlethal op-tions such as fencing, repellents, landscaping alternatives and community education.

The plan was constructed due to a recent a rise in complaints from residents that said that deer are eating gardens and even at showing signs of aggression.

The problem is a direct result of people feeding the deer, which attracts them into residential ar-eas. Once they run out of that food source, they start to munch

on the next best thing which might be someone’s garden or potted plants, Allgood said.

The plan is available to review for the next 30 days on the city of Oxford’s website and will be dis-cussed during a public forum at the June 15 Board of Aldermen meeting. The first step is a new ordinance.

McGlowan of Oxford.“This is not an election about

one man,” Nunnelee said Tues-day night. “This is about tak-ing our country back, taking it back from the liberal left wing that controls the United States Congress.”

Childers, a self-described fiscal conservative, voted with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on federal stimulus spending but voted against her on a fed-eral health care overhaul.

Mississippi Democratic Par-ty executive director Sam Hall said in a news release that Nun-nelee is a “career politician” who’s out of touch with the middle class. “Travis Childers has been independent minded and stood up for working fam-ilies while Alan Nunnelee has only stood up for himself and his own career,” Hall said.

Childers and Nunnelee will be on the Nov. 2 general elec-tion ballot along with seven other candidates.

In the District 4 race, unof-ficial results showed Palazzo defeated Joe Tegerdine in a Re-publican primary. Palazzo is a military veteran, certified pub-lic accountant and first-term state lawmaker from Biloxi. Tegerdine, a businessman from

Petal, courted tea party voters in his first run for office.

Palazzo will face Democrat Gene Taylor of Bay St. Louis, who has represented south Mississippi in the U.S. House since 1989. The November bal-lot also will have a Libertarian and a Reform Party candidate.

“South Mississippi wants somebody to go up there and be a leader on the issues,” Palazzo said Tuesday night.

Palazzo said Taylor voted against a federal health care overhaul but did too little to prevent its passage.

No incumbents were on the ballot in Mississippi; only op-posing-party nominees were being chosen. Election offi-cials reported sparse turnout in most of the state’s 82 counties.

In the 3rd District, unoffi-cial results showed Gill defeat-ed Holmes Community Col-lege sociology professor James D. Jackson of Brandon and Shawn O’Hara of Hattiesburg, who has run unsuccessfully for many Mississippi offices.

Gill, who lives outside the 3rd District, was the Demo-cratic nominee in the district in 2008 when the seat was open. He lost to Republican Gregg Harper of Pearl.

The November ballot will have Harper, Gill and a Re-form Party candidate.

Because of poll workers’ problems in Hinds County, the state’s largest county, a winner could not immediately be de-termined in the 2nd District GOP primary. Elections offi-cials planned to finish count-ing the race Wednesday, possi-bly by the afternoon.

Cook, a teacher who ran for the seat in 2008; and Marcy, a former Chicago police officer who ran unsuccessfully for a state House seat in Meridian in 2009, had the most votes, but not more than the 50 per-cent needed to avoid a runoff. George Bailey, an ordained minister, retired teacher and law enforcement officer from Clinton, was running a distant third.

The November ballot will have Thompson, the Repub-lican nominee and a Reform Party candidate.

Congressional candidates aren’t required to live in the district they’re seeking to rep-resent. Neither Gill nor Marcy believe their residing outside the districts where they’re run-ning has been an issue.

friends and family there. He said he is surprised, humbled and excited, though, to be selected as the next dean of the Ole Miss School of Law.

“I would have only considered leaving Charleston for a compelling opportunity in a beautiful place,” Gershon said. “Being dean at the University of Mississippi School of Law is a compelling opportunity, and Oxford is a beau-tiful place.”

He has many plans for his new position, such as in-tegrating more alumni involvement into the school. He said he believes that the Ole Miss School of Law is a well-kept secret in the world of legal studies and education.

With that in mind, Gershon said he hopes to bring the school to the attention of law professors, judges and law-yers not only across the nation, but worldwide.

“The law school has outstanding alumni, faculty, stu-dents, and programs,” Gershon said. “It prides itself on producing great lawyers, and I do not want to change that. But I do think that there are opportunities to in-volve the alumni to a greater level, and I look forward to working with them.”

Gershon said he considers the university to be one of America’s best universities, and is excited that his family, with whom he will move, will have access to the univer-sity

His wife, who is an editor of Garden and Gun maga-zine, also looks forward to Oxford from articles the maga-zine has written, according to Gershon.

“She is also a poet, so she is excited to work with the literary community at Ole Miss and in Oxford,” Gershon said.

In additon to the job, Gershon said he is also looking forward to Southeastern Conference football since he has studied at three SEC schools in the past.

John and Linda Flemming opened Emileigh’s Table, a country-style restaurant in Taylor, just over two years ago.

Emileigh’s Table is in the heart of Plein Air, a 15-minute drive down Old Taylor Road from Oxford.

Plein Air is a small, tradi-tional community located in Taylor.

It is also the site of one of Southern Living’s Idea Homes.

The atmosphere at Emil-eigh’s Table is laid-back and relaxed.

Chatter and laughter con-stantly circulate through the restaurant complimented by a delicious intermingling of aro-mas.

When I was there, the staff was friendly and eager to take care of its customers.

Upon walking in, the restau-rant proves itself inviting and cozy with a rustic, at-home vibe with a side order of coun-try love.

The lunch menu features plate lunches with items in-cluding meatloaf and fried chicken and a wide selection of vegetables.

There is also a “choose three” salad sampler.

Dinner is a presentation of competition-style barbecue, including ribs and brisket.

However, the menu doesn’t stop there, Emileigh’s envel-ops Southern cuisine, serving shrimp and grits as well as fresh potato salads.

Desserts are always fresh, de-

livered from well-known Emil-eigh’s Bakery in Oxford.

Like Mama cooked it, ev-erything is made from scratch; nothing is ever frozen.

Dinner at Emileigh’s is a BYOB event and many nights there is live music to entertain the guests.

They often book local talents to play but have had former Squirrel Nut Zippers founder and Mississippian Jimbo Ma-thus play at the venue on sev-eral occasions.

Emileigh’s is great for lunch but for all the fun Tyler Clancy, manager of Emileigh’s Table, recommends patrons visit on the weekends for dinner.

“Make a night of it,” Clancy said. “It’s great for family and students, and if you make it out here, you’ll be back. It’s food you grew up on, or should have, if you didn’t.”

For students looking for a night away from Oxford, this is a great place to eat.

The dinner menu ranges from $6 to $16 with plenty to choose from.

The live music provides great entertainment and the BYOB is an invitation to relax and have fun.

It’s just like eating at home, plates and silverware and great food; it is a restaurant, but without the white linen nap-kins or the prices that come with them.

Lunch is served Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. and dinner is served Thursday through Sun-day from 5 p.m until 9 p.m.

EMILEIGH’S TABLE: TAYLOR’S OTHER GEMBY AMANDA WARDLifestyles Editor

Emileigh’s Table manager Tyler Clancy prepares a dish at the Taylor restaurant. Emileigh’s Table provides Lafayette County residents with an option for classic, southern meals in Taylor. Emileigh’s Table is located down the road from Taylor Grocery and is open for Lunch from Tuesday until Sunday and serves dinner from Thursday through Sunday.

if you go

Take Mississippi 6 to Old Taylor Road. Head away from campus and continue on Old Taylor for around fifteen minutes, until you reach the Plein Air develop-ment on your left. Turn left before you get to it, and within their shopping area (near where the parking is), you will find Emileigh’s Table.

1. South Carolina: The Gamecocks boasted

the No. 2 pass defense in the Southeastern Conference last year, but the unit should be tops in the SEC in 2010. For-mer blue-chip recruit Stephon Gilmore lived up to the hype his true-freshman season, and will soon be a household name for college football fans.

2. Florida: Former Gator Joe Haden

was the first corner taken in April’s NFL draft, but the loss of Haden to the pros is par-tially offset by coach Urban Meyer’s penchant for stockpil-ing SEC-ready talent. Ahmad Black and Will Hill are the top safeties on the team, but don’t be surprised if true freshman safety Matt Elam earns some playing time.

3. Vanderbilt: The secondary was one of the

lone bright spots for last year’s 2-10 Commodores. Vandy has a pair of veterans in senior cor-ner Casey Hayward and senior strong safety Sean Richardson. The loss of cornerback Myron Lewis to the NFL hurts, but there shouldn’t be much regres-sion with a secondary full of Bobby Johnson’s signature as-signment football players.

4. Alabama: Strong safety Mark Barron

is the only member of the sec-ondary returning for the reign-

ing national champions. The Crimson Tide had three cor-ners drafted to the NFL, but super recruit Dre Kirkpatrick should fill in admirably at one of the cornerback spots.

5. Tennessee: Eric Berry rocked the worlds

of SEC offenses during his three seasons in Knoxville, and his early departure to the NFL means less big plays on defense. Strong safety Janzen Jackson earned a starting position as a true freshman, but must learn to keep out of trouble – i.e. not getting arrested for attempted armed robbery.

6. Kentucky: The Wildcats had a decent

pass defense thanks to corner-back Trevard Lindley, one of Kentucky’s all-time greats at the position. Corner Randall Burden will be counted on to help alleviate Lindley’s depar-ture.

7. Ole Miss: The Rebels should be con-

cerned about losing three-fourths of a secondary that finished a mediocre sixth in the SEC against the pass in 2009. The corners have little experi-ence and junior college transfer free safety Damien Jackson has yet to take a snap in the SEC. Secondary coach Chris Vaughn has to hope the front seven can pick up the slack.

8. Auburn: Three starters return to an

Auburn secondary that ranked

in the lower fourth of SEC pass defenses in 2009. Cornerback Neiko Thorpe and safety Dar-en Bates were two of Auburn’s top tacklers last year.

9. LSU: The Tigers had an under-

achieving pass defense last year despite stars Patrick Peterson and Chad Jones. Peterson is the best corner in the league now that Haden is gone from Florida, but Jones’ departure to the NFL doesn’t help last sea-

son’s No. 8 ranked SEC pass defense.

10. Georgia: New defensive coordinator

Todd Grantham is charged at revitalizing a once proud Geor-gia defense. Corner Brandon Boykin may be the key to im-proving last year’s No. 9 pass defense in the league.

11. Mississippi State: The Bulldogs have a young

star in cornerback Corey Broomfield, who had six inter-

ceptions in 2009. Broomfield and safety Charles Mitchell are the keys to Mississippi State improving last year’s No. 11 pass defense in the SEC.

12. Arkansas: The Razorbacks finished last

in the SEC in pass defense in 2009. Although former start-ing cornerback Isaac Mason re-turns from an ACL injury, this should still be the Achilles heel for a team with high expecta-tions.

The Rebels will look to improve on last season’s No. 6 pass defense dspite losing three starting defensive backs, including Cassius Vaughn.

BY PAUL KATOOL The Daily Mississippian

Ole Miss senior Lauren Grill was named to the Louisville Slug-ger All-America third team by the National Fastpitch Coaches’ As-sociation on Wednesday. Grill was selected at the shortstop position and becomes the first two-time All-American in Ole Miss history.

A 2008 first-team All-America pick by Louisville Slugger, Grill started all 56 games at short for the

Rebels in 2010. She led Ole Miss with a .443 batting average, eight home runs, 39 RBI and a .705 slugging percentage. Her .569 on-base percentage this season is the fifth-best mark in SEC history, while her 44 career homers are tied for sixth best in league history.

“It is an amazing honor for Lau-ren to be named an All-American for the second time in her career,”

Ole Miss head coach Missy Dick-erson said. “It just shows what type of player she is and the talent she brought to our program.”

The Tualatin, Ore., native liter-ally rewrote the Ole Miss record book during her four seasons as a Rebel. Grill owns Ole Miss ca-reer records in hits, runs, RBI, walks, total bases, batting average, on-base and slugging percentage. She also ranks second in doubles, triples and home runs. In addition, she holds single-season Ole Miss marks for hits, runs, walks, total bases, batting average, slugging and on-base percentage.

Junior left-hander Drew Po-meranz was named one of 30 semifinalists for the 2010 Gold-en Spikes Award honoring the nation’s top collegiate baseball player, USA Baseball announced on Tuesday.

The list will be narrowed down to five finalists on Tuesday, June 8, before the announce-ment of this year’s winner on July 13.

Pomeranz, who was named the Southeastern Conference Pitcher of the Year last week,

has been a dominant force for the Rebels this season as he has compiled an 8-2 record in 2010. The southpaw leads the South-eastern Conference in strikeouts (134), opposing batting average (.190) and in ERA (2.21). He also garnered first team All-SEC honors last week, the league of-fice announced prior to the SEC Tournament.

The Rebels advanced to the SEC Tournament for the eighth straight season this year as the sixth-seeded team and defeated No. 7 South Carolina and No. 13 Auburn on the way to the semifinals of the event before falling to eventual tournament champion LSU.

With his seven strikeouts against the Gamecocks in the opening round of the tourna-ment, Pomeranz hit the 339 strikeout mark for his career, taking over the top spot on the career strikeout list at Ole Miss and passing Lance Lynn (332). Pomeranz, who holds 134 strie-outs this year, needs 12 more strikeouts to hit the top spot for strikeouts in a season set by Lynn in 2008.
