Moon: Goodbye to Oilers, hello to Minnesota Vikings
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Warren Moon,
flanked.by. his family and aggnt,
said goodbye to his Houston Oilers
ties on Monday, choosing to talk
about his fans instead of his detrac
tors.
It was a clean break, with no
bitterness showing through.
“This is a day 1 thought would
never happen so soon, hut a day
that’s become reality,” Moon said.
“This is my final day as a Houston
Oiler and my first day as a Min
nesota Viking officially.”
Moon was traded along with Ills
$3.25 million salary to the Vikings
last week for a fourth-round pick
this year and a conditional third-
round choice in 1995.
“OneThing Twanted to acixflfii-''
plish here was to get this teafh ip
be a winner and we got that done,"
Moon said. “I wanted to become
entrenched in the community and
we ^ot* that done.
Another thing was to win a
championship, and we didn’t get
that but maybe the Oilers can still
get it. My efforts from now on will
be with the Minnesota Vikings.”
Moon said he knew his depar
ture was a business decision
brought on by the NFL’s salary cap.
"Economics play a big role in
what goes on in sports and players
get caught up in business deci
sions,” Moon said. "I’m just lucky
that I got artflther opportunity.”
Moon became a focal point of
criticism when the Oilers reached
the playoffs seven straight years but
never got past the second round.
Houston won only three playoff
games in Moon’s 10 years with the
Oilers.
His wife, Felicia, has told of
racial slurs directed to her during
games.
"There are bad apples every
where,” Moon said. ‘ If I do some
things they don’t like up there, I’m
sure I’ll hear that too. I do know
that 1 got more support than nega
tive stuff here.”
Moon said angry fans were
tougher on his family than on him.
‘ People aren’t going to walk up
to me and say stuff because they
don’t have the nerve to do that,'
Moon said. “It’s been tough on my
wife and family.”
Leigh Steinberg, Moon’s agent,
said Moon’s contract with the
Vikings was for two years, but
Moon declined to say that would
be the end of his career.
"I never dreamed Td still be
playing,” Moon said. “Who knows
how long I’ll be able to play after
this contract is over.”
