because I’m having a hard time buy
ing that. I’m having a hard time buy
ing that two-thirds of the picketing
players evencare about free agency.
Most of the players are on strike
because their teammates are on
strike — and team unity must pre
vail.
The players’ union is one big peer
pressure group. Those who oppose
it are jeered, harassed and attacked.
For example, the striking Hous
ton Oilers pelted a bus carrying free
agents with rocks and eggs. How ma
ture can you get?
In Kansas City, linebacker Dino
Hackett and tight end Paul Coffman
brandished shotguns at non-union
players who crossed the picket line.
In Dallas, Tony Dorsett referred to
Randy White as “Captain Scab.”
Never mind that White is a 13-year
veteran who has been a team leader
for the Cowboys over the years, and
never mind that White is a six-time
All-Pro. If he doesn’t cross the picket
line, he’s nothing more than a scab.
It seems to me that a player like
Randy White should be respected
for whatever decision he makes
about the strike.
No, the players’ union is treating
anyone who doesn’t agree with its
views as the enemy. If you cross the
union, you’re courting death. Just
ask the guy disguised as a gorilla
who taunted the Oilers with a sign
decrying the players’ average salary
of $230,000. A couple of players de
cided to give him chase.
Receiver Ernest Givins said the
man was acting “childish.” I guess
throwing rocks and eggs is the epit
ome of sophistication, then,
on, guys. The last time I egge
I was in the third grade. And son
people sf///think I’m immature.
I hate to tell you guys this, t
you can prance around in a parkit,
lot carrying signs, so can a man I
guised as a gorilla. It’s called “frtt
dom of expression,” and some pet
pie think it’s pretty important.
By the same token, the free agent
who are trying out for all the vacaiet
positions have a right to do that,
For some of these players, a strik
provides the only way they can
their dreams. For other free agents
a strike provides a way to pay tin
rent, at least temporarily. Forme
A&M football player Domingo Bn
ant, who is trying to join the Oilen
free agent team, says, “I’mjustdoin(
this to survive.” So are a lotofotli
It’s quite an ugly situation whet
mature adults start acting like ba
hies. The players need to realct
there’s no way the fans are going to
agree with them if they keep trask
ing buses and vans. The players also
need to realize that they are rolf
models whether they like it or not,
Yeah, kids really can lookupto

acingly at people who just want

game.

But not The Real Thing.
In case you’ve been in cryogenic
freezing the past few months, let me
break the news .gently.> there ain’t
gonna be no pro football this week.
Tact is, it looks tike it might be that
way for a while. Better not miss any
Oklahoma football games the next
few months; they’ll be about the only
pro team active.
I have been more concerned, be
lieve me. With the majority per
suasion of the Supreme Court ready
to shift, acts of war in the Persian
Gulf, and a cast of nobodies vying
for the job of Head Enchilada of the
US of A, I have weightier matters on
my mind.
Besides, the Cowboys and Oilers
wouldn’t have been any good this
year anyway.
To put the “crisis” in a nutshell,
the players’ union is demanding
pure free agency; the owners won’t
giv^it to them.
Admittedly, it is difficult to sym
pathize with a few hundred guys
making an average of $230,000
apiece for one year’s work (closer to

The 1987 Texas A&M Four-Way
Singles and Doubles Tourney begins
today at noon at the Omar Smith
Tennis Center, with the finals sched
uled for Sunday.
Teams competing in the tourna
ment include the host Aggies, Texas,
Texas Tech and McNeese State.
Texas finished last season ranked
No. 10 in the nation. McNeese State
won the Southland Conference
crown last year.
The top returning player for
A&M is senior Dean Johnson. John
son won three of the four tourna
ments he entered this summer, and
A&M Coach David Kent said the
newly-elected captain of the squad
shows good leadership potential.
Newcomers to the team include
Mike Chambers, a transfer student
from Houston; Kenny Rylee, who
transferred from Kentucky; and
six months, really) for doing k
sically what thousands of peopled:
for free. But the fact remains
is the players’ right to get what die
are after, and it is their right ton
sort to striking to get it.
With the current system, when
player’s contract with his team rati
out, he is not allowed to play fora
other club that wants his service
without it compensating the played
original team in some way.
The compensation makes a fret
agent less attractive to teams, driviti
down their market worth. Our ecu
nomic society has been based
years on people working for then
lue of their services. Whatever
market will bear.
I f that happens to be a few millffi

I’m not in the habit of siding
a union on any matter, weighty oi

“Well, I’m just gonna take my mat

ATLANTA (AP) — Dale Mur

Murphy also had a two-run

After the Braves tied the score
with four runs in the eighth, Al

Twins close in on title
pleted a three-game sweep.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Frank
Viola pitched three-hit ball for eight
innings and Greg Gagne hit an in-
side-the-park home run Thursday
night as the Minnesota Twins moved
closer to the American League West
title by beating the Texas Rangers 4-
0 for their sixth straight victory.
The Twins cut their magic num
ber for clinching the division to five
over Oakland, which played Chicago
later Thursday night.
Viola, 17-9, and Juan Berenguer
combined on a three-hitter. Viola
did not allow a hit until Steve Bue-
chele led off the sixth inning with a
single. He struck out 10, walked
three and lowered his earned run
average to 2.88, second-best in the
league.
Viola has won nine straight deci
sions at the Metrodome. The Twins
have won seven in a row at home
and improved their record there to
55-23, best home mark in the ma-
jors.
Charlie Hough, 17-12, allowed six
hits, hit three batters and walked
three. He struck out seven in his
12th complete game.
Jim Acker, 4-6, pitched the
ninth inning for the victory.
Trailing 7-3 in the eighth, Hall
hit his third homer, Murphy
doubled in a run for his 100th
RBI, Ozzie Virgil singled in Mur
phy, and Ken Oberkfell tied the
score with a single against Hous
ton reliever Dave Smith. Smith
had relieved Larry Andersen af
ter Murphy’s hit.
Nolan Ryan pitched six innings
for the Astros, allowing five hits,
striking out five and walking
seven. In 197 2-3 innings, Ryan
has 251 strikeouts, tops in the ma
jor leagues. Seattle’s Mark Lan
gston leads the American League
with 244 strikeouts.
