Hollywood' creates showcase
United Press International
i MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Thomas
Wenderson is turning Super Bowl
[II into his personal showcase.
Henderson, who will start at
)layed 1 )( . rongside linebacker for Dallas
would and! > linst the Pittsburgh Steelers in
I thouiilii >I| a y s NFL title game at the
•e 10-range Bowl, has shattered the
annareni whovs' conservative image with
of other t s ivccnt verbal barrages.
, Henderson had the Los Angeles
e'confereitt W fuming 1 f fore th f r NFC V tU ‘
me two weeks ago, claiming they
... ..i..,, idn’t have enough class” to make
‘ r " e Super Bowl. Tuesday he turned
e " 5 guns on the Steelers, but most of

“I think the Steelers are more

ml Smith S ’^nd they can take that any way
. Woods ev want to. They can’t intimidate
the Ags»
us. The Steelers will be laying back,
trying to figure out what we’re going
to do. I wonder if they can think.
We are the reigning World Cham
pions. The score of Sunday’s game
will be a whole little to a whole lot
and we re going to be the whole
lot.
Henderson bills himself as “my
own P.R. man. He adds quickly,
“but I have to back it up. When I
can t back it up, then I m in trouble.
But it’s going to be just like the L. A.
game. They lack depth. We 11 shut
them out on defense and Hollywood
will have the final word again.
Henderson, who bestowed the
Hollywood title on himself, was re
ferring to a 68-yard touchdown run
with an interception against Los
Angeles that clinched the Cowboys
28-0 title game victory over the
Rams.
But while the Rams fumed and
fussed about Henderson’s taunts,
the Steelers only laugh and smile.
"Yeah, I saw what he’s been say
ing,’’ said Jack Lambert, the Steel
ers’ All-Pro middle linebacker. “I
thought it was humorous. I’ve al
ways felt Thomas Henderson was
the Muhammad Ali type. We ha
ven’t dwelt on it at all. I think he’s
just a lot of talk. I think it’s more of a
show than anything else. He just
likes to see his name in the paper.
“He’s quite a character, said
tight end Randy Grossman. “This is
a sport and everything, but when
you get to the professional level, it’s
big entertainment. Tickets are going
for $150-200. He serves a purpose
for the whole thing. What if every
body said, it’s going to be a great
game,’ and all that kind of stuff. It
doesn’t make any difference to me
what he says. What it comes down
to is the game. That’s when I ll be
serious.’
“We don t have anyone like that,
said defensive tackle Steve Furness.
“It’s not indicative of our style. If it
makes him play better, he should
keep it up. I don t see how he can
say we lack depth. We re not fazed
by that type of talk. Elvin Bethea
(Houston defensive end) guaranteed
a victory over the Steelers too. He’ll
(Henderson) have enough trouble
containing our offensive line.
“Gorgeous George had his thing,
Muhammad Ali had his,” said tackle
Jon Kolb. “You can’t blame a guy if
he wants a little recognition.
"If anything, it’s a little mental
boost for us, ” said guard Gerry Mul
lins. “It gives you incentive to try
and shut his mouth. He’s a good
football player and I guess he has
the right to say what he wants but I
know a lot of good football players
who don’t shoot off their mouth. If it
helps him get ready, fine, but it’s
just got to be fuel for our fire.
Most of Henderson’s teammates
were supportive of his vocal out
burst.
"We’ve never really had anyone
that outspoken,” said All-Pro safety
Clift’Harris. “In the past, when he’s
talked, he’s always backed it up. I’m
glad to see it. I know he won’t let
me down.
“He has strong personal opinions.
When Thomas says things like we re
going to shut out the Steelers, he
puts pressure on himself and he
seems to play better with more
pressure.”
