picketers show
support for NFL strike
HOUSTON (AP) — Houston
Oiler teammates, marching to music
blaring from a black Mercedes
parked nearby, picketed the en
trance to the team’s practice site
Tuesday as they joined fellow Na
tional Football League players in a
strike against team owners.
They found, however, few non
union players to confront.
Free agent defensive lineman
Tony Fitzpatrick, currently on the
team’s injured reserve list, left the
practice facility after getting his in
jured shoulder treated.
Several players shouted, “Scab,”
as Fitzpatrick drove through their
picket line.
“I’m not a union member and I’m
not crossing their picket line,” Fitz
patrick said. “I’m just going to get
treatment on my shoulder. They
(union) haven’t done anything for
me yet. I believe in a lot of things
they say, but until I’m in the union
I’m just trying to get ready to play.”
The Oilers picket line ranged
from 28 to 33 players as the deadline
passed for a 12:30 p.m. team meet
ing of non-union pla'
the club.
players signed by
Three security guards were
posted at the gate in front of the
practice field but there were no inci
dents.
Picketing players were in a jovial
mood, although tight end Jamie Wil
liams said the team was serious about
the walkout.
“I’m really upset because they’re
acting like kids, and it’s mostly the
owners,” Williams said. “We don’t
need to be out here doing this. They
should have gotten this settled long
ago.”
Oilers quarterback Warren Moon,
the team’s player representative,
said pickets would resume daily be
tween 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. but
would not continue indefinitely.
“We’ve got the picket lines up now
just to see who will cross the picket
line and how many scabs they bring
in,” Moon said. “The pickets will
drop off when we start working
out.”
Williams said he thought about
bringing his dog to walk the picket
line.
“He’s real ornery,” Williams
joked. “I started to bring him out
here and sic him on a scab.”
Dorsett: Pokes’ stance
on strike still unsure
IRVING (AP) — The Dallas Cow
boys players voted Tuesday to strike,
but running back Tony Dorsett said
it was not unanimous and added
“there are a lot of uncomfortable
people.”
None of the Cowboys showed up
for a scheduled 2 p.m. CDT team
meeting, and President Tex
Schramm said the club will begin is
suing uniforms to 45 free agents ex
pected to report.
Quarterback Danny White, an
outspoken critic of the 1982 NFL
players’ strike, said he would honor
Wednesday’s picket lines which will
be set up outside the Cowboys’ Val
ley Ranch headquarters at 8:30 a.m.
“It’s not an easy dacision because
I’m losing $45,000 a game,” White
said. “But I support the team. I’m
not a supporter of the union or man
agement.”
Defensive tackle Randy White,
however, may cross the picket lines
on Wednesday, said a player who
asked not to be identified.
“Nobody wants to strike and we
want to get this resolved,” said Dor
sett, whb stands to lose $28,000 per
game. “I feel the strike should have
been avoided, (but) I’ll be there with
a picket sign in my hand. ”
The union leaders spoke at a
Cowboys team meeting at the invita
tion of player respresentative Doug
Cosbie, who later refused to talk to
the media.
Another possible holdout, line
backer Eugene Lockhart, said he
had decided to walk.
“I’m with the team,” Lockhart
said.
Linebacker Jeff Rohrer said the
Cowboys wouldn’t be happy with
picket crossers.
“I don’t see how those guys who
cross (the picket lines) can look at
themselves in the mirror,” Rohrer
said. “I could forgive ’em, but I
couldn’t forget ’em. My grandfather
was in the Teamsters union.”
Some of the Dallas players said
they had complete faith in the
union.
Schramm said the Cowboys would
“welcome any players back any time
they wished to come to Valley
Ranch” and said the team was “del
uged by requests from players and
their agents to join the team. We’ve
also received a lot of fan interest by
mail.”
The Cowboys are scheduled to
play Buffalo in Texas Stadium Sun
day, but the NFL likely will postpone
that game, Schramm said.
Astros near elimination
ATLANTA (AP) — Jeff Blauser
drove in four runs with a triple and a
pair of singles Tuesday, leading the
Atlanta Braves to a 6-2 victory over
the Houston Astros.
Blauser’s triple in the second in
ning gave fellow rookie Kevin Cof
fman, 1-3, a lead he and reliever
Chuck Cary protected for Coffman’s
first major-league victory.
Coffman, who was making his
fourth major league start, gave up
four hits in five innings. He struck
out two and walked five.
The Astros will be eliminated
from the NL West race with a combi
nation of three Houston losses or
San Francisco wins.
Blauser’s first single came with the
bases loaded in the third and scored
two runs. The other single drove in a
run in the fifth.
Paul Runge walked with two outs
in the second and scored when
Blauser tripled into the right-center
field gap against Houston starter
Bob Knepper, 8-16.
Albert Hall led off the Braves’
third with his second straight single,
stole second and scored as Gerald
Perry doubled. After Dale Murphy
walked and went to second as Perry
was thrown out attempting to steal
third, Gary Roenicke walked and
Ozzie Virgil singled to score Mur
phy. Runge was safe on a fielding er
ror by shortstop Craig Reynolds,
loading the bases. Blauser then sin
gled in two runs.
