Oilers-Vikings
agree in principle
to trade Moon
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Warren Moon,
the star quarterback who led the
Houston Oilers to the playoffs
for seven straight years, is head
ing to the Minnesota Vikings.
Oilers owner Bud Adams said
Wednesday the team has reached
an agreement in principle to
send Moon to Minnesota.
“For all practical purposes,
we have a trade, but we have a
lot of details to be worked out,”
Adams said Wednesday. “But I
see no problem to keep us from
working it out. I think within 72
hours we’ll have a deal.”
Adams’ comments came
shortly after a phone conversa
tion with Vikings president
Roger Headrick, who also said
the deal was near completion.
“As of yesterday, it wasn’t
that close but right now I have
kind of mixed feelings,” Moon
said. “Everybody knows I want
ed to finish my career here but
also knowing there’s another
team that wants me is a chal
lenge.
‘ You can give your all if you
know the fans are behind you.”
But his emotions are mixed.
“I’m still going to be calling
Houston home but I won’t he
playing football in the dome any
more,’ he said. “I really didn t
want to leave here ... but I do
have a team that wants me.”
Arena
Continued from Page 7
A staunch supporter of the new
facility has been head men’s basket
ball coach Tony Barone. Barone has
previously stated improved facilities
as one of his eight steps in his
"Blueprint for Success ’ for the
men’s basketball program.
Hickey said the limited amount
of space available for teams to prac
tice is another strong argument for
the new arena.
“There were no practice for all
of us (both basketball squads and
the volleyball team),” Hickey said.
“We took turns with the men
this semester having practice late at
night. We need more floor space.”
Last week, the University made a
presentation of the plans for the
center to the Building Committee
of the Coordinating Board. The
proposal was approved for further
consideration, and the committee
will report to the full Coordinating
Board sometime later this month.
If the Coordinating Board agrees
to the proposal, the university s fi
nal approval will be voted on in
July.
Groff also stated the impending
conference merger with the Big
Eight as a reason for the urgency of
a new facility.
"We pride ourselves on our fa
cilities, and G. Rollie is one of the
few facilities that is not first class,”
Groff said.
“Some of the schools in the Big
Eight have facilities with s< ! ing be
tween 12,000 and 15,000. With
this facility, we’re in the top 10
percent of the country (in quality).
“We pride ourselves on our fa
cilities, and this is highly desir
able.”

Olajuwon MVP says Minnesota’s Browi
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — After being in
the trenches on successive nights
with two of the top candidates
for the NBA’s MVP award, Min
nesota center Mike Brown is pre
pared to cast his ballot.
Is it San Antonio’s David
Robinson or Houston’s Hakeem
Olajuwon?
"Hakeem is the best center in
the league, and he’s been the best
the last five or six years,” Brown
said.
“David is having an MVP sea
son by the numbers but Hakeem
has played that way for years. He
was my MVP last year.”
Olajuwon was second in the
MVP voting to Phoenix’s Charles
Barkley last season and is battling
with Robinson for the honor this
season.
Olajuwon scored 42 poio
including 1 3 in the final 4:0/
keep the Timberwolves from
late rally on Tuesday night (on
98-89 victory.
On Monday night, Brown ie:!
the Timberwolves lost totli
Spurs 101-89. Robinson scotti
29 points and got 11 rebounds
Both players left vivid imptst
sions on the Timberwolves mi
Olajuwon taking the edge.

Houston from the old National
League West.
The Reds’ presence does make
me feel a little better, because the
Reds-Astros series over the past
three seasons has escalated into a
near warlike state.
It all started back in 1991, in
the very first weekend of the sea
son. Rob Dibble, always .known
for his peaceful demeanor on the
field, had just given upo a run
scoring single to Astros pitcher
Pete Harnisch.
At this point, Dibble, unable
to control his frustration, blew
off some steam by throwing his
next pitch behind the head of the
Astros’ next batter, shortstop Eric
Yelding. v
Despite his slight of build,
Yelding wasted no time charging
the monstrous Diblile, first peg
ging Dibble with his batting hel
met, then jumping into the
melee as both benches cleared.
Later in the year, former Astro
and at the time current Red Billy
Doran played peacemaker be
tween Yelding and Dibble. Or so
he thought.
A year later, the two teams
were at it again, with Dibble as
the primary instigator one more
time. This time however. Dibble
met his match in the brawl in As
tros’ first base coach Ed Ott, he
of 1 0 knee surgeries. Ott
grabbed Dibble in a choke hold,
and was later quoted saying he
watched Dibble turn red, then
blue, then purple before letting
him loose.
That’s the kind of talk old-time
baseball fans love. It hearkens
back to a time when two cities
and two teams just didn’t want to
beat each other, they wanted to
heat each other up, and send the
losers home with their tails be
tween their legs.
The Astros used to have that
kind of vyonderful relationship
with the Giants, Braves and
Dodgers.
With the Giants, it was mainly
the apatliy felt by the city of
Houston towards Will Clark (for
having the nerve to light Nolan
Ryan up), and towards former
Giants manager Roger Craig, who
T - -
fastball, and then constantly at
cused him of scuffing the ball. |
With tl ie Braves it was the ha
tred of the fact that the Braves
perennial cellar dwellers werty
suddenly veryw^ty good! 0nce :
they got hot, it seemed they con
stantly beat the Astros senseless.
With the Dodgers, it was al
ways special just because they
were the Dodgers. The Dodgers
had dominated the division atir-
ing the ]98 0’s, and always
seemed to have the Astros' num
ber. Plus, Los Angeles was the
home of the Houston Rockets
nemesis in the 1980’s, the Lakers,
1 get chills remembering summer
nights in Houston when the As
trodome would rock to chants ot
“Beat L.A.! Beat L.A.!”
Rivalries are not born
overnight, except in the case of
an extraordinary occurrence. It
will take some time for the Hous
ton fans to familiarize themselves
with the new teams' heroes and
villains, now that we’ll be seeing
them I 3 times a year each. But
still, I just cannot envision myself
screaming, “Beat Pitts-burg!
Pitts-burg!”.
