He can throw the ball downfield with accuracy, and is getting better and better at making smart decisions un der pressure. He also ac counted for all three of the Oilers’ scores on Sunday. A lot of Richardson’s crit ics put down his uncanny ability to get the ball in the end zone by suggesting he only collects the stats in “garbage time”, when oppos ing defenses have their sec ond and third string players in. To that, I say, so what? Despite being second or third stringers, every player on the field is still part of a very se lect group of athletes that have earned a spot in the NFL. And don’t you think those guys are playing their butts off trying to impress their coaches and get an in crease in their playing time? Fact is, Richardson’s not only competing with these guys, he’s tearing them up. The Oilers still have a good secondary and a good corps of receivers. Gary Brown had a great bust-out year last season, and despite a poor performance on Sun day, he is the Oilers’ main running man. But a lot of the Oilers’ veterans are ex pendable for a team that is rebuilding. Many of the Oilers’ play ers are the types that a team making a playoff team would covet, and be willing to trade draft picks for. Lorenzo White is one, as are Webster Slaughter, A1 Smith and even though it hurts to say it, Childress. The Oilers’ have been say ing “It’s gotta be this year,” for the last three years. This year, they can finally hold their heads up high, they were telling the truth last season, this year they’ve got no chance. But they can still make it fun for the fans, who pay the man who pays their salaries. The fans absolutely go ba nanas when Richardson comes in the game. The real fans are mainly working-class Houstonians, and they wor ship a hard-working player. That’s what made the “Luv Ya Blue” era special, the players the Oilers had were not the most talented in the league (save Earl Camp bell), but they gave it their all every game, and twice came within reach of the Su per Bowl. Richardson is that kind of player, and maybe he can rub off on some of the other players, and remind them of the other reason they play ball, besides the money. Do Houston a favor, Bud.... Start Bucky. Rice breaks touchdown record 49er scores three TDs Monday, tops NFL list SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Jerry Rice had little time to sa vor the record-setting effort that made him the NFL’s all-time touchdown leader. No sooner had he scored his 127th career touchdown Mon day night in the San Francisco 49ers’ 44-14 rout of the Los An geles Raiders than the 49ers wide receiver was caught up again in the Joe Montana-Steve Young rivalry. The 49ers travel to Kansas City next Sunday for their first confrontation ever with Mon tana. He led San Francisco to four Super Bowl wins in the 1980s before losing his job to Young and joining the Chiefs in a 1993 trade. “We’ve got a big game coming up and I’m not going to have a lot of time to enjoy it,” said Rice, who surpassed Hall of Fame full back Jim Brown’s previous mark by scoring three times. “But it’ll be nice to see Joe again. He helped me get this record,” Rice said. Montana and Rice connected on 55 touchdown passes. Young and Rice have hooked up for scores 49 times, including two against the Raiders. The first came on a 69-yard bomb from Young. Rice then made like a running back to pull into a tie with Brown, scor ing on a 23-yard reverse and set the record with 4:05 to go when he outjumped Albert Lewis for the ball and tumbled into the end zone. "He made a great play,” said NFL’s all-time touchdown leader Jerry Rice of the San Francisco 49ers scored three touchdowns Monday against the Los Angeles Raiders to become the all-time , /£' r \ touchdown leader in the National Football League. .

I was grabbing at his arm, grabbing at the ball but somehow he managed to hang onto it.” “I’m embarrassed it was a lit tle short,” said Young. ‘T had someone on my back and that’s all J had. But it is kind of perfect that it came on a ball that was a little short and he went up and took it away for a touchdown.” Teammates rushed to congrat ulate Rice. “He was crying; he deserved to cry,” running back Ricky Wat ters said. “He worked so hard for this. He wanted it. That’s how he was able to score on that reverse. That’s how he was able to go up for that last ball and get it.” Rice actually thought he was done for the night after scoring his second TD. “Why not?” said offensive co ordinator Mike Shanahan. “I thought if we can get it now, it would be great.” So, did the 49ers make the right decision in keeping Young and trading Montana? "I’m not going to put myself on the spot by saying, what if or what, you know. It’s up to the or ganization,” he said. Rice said likes the way he and Young have developed as a tandem and thinks they’ll get even better. “I watch Joe play during the season. I watch him throw those balls. I watch him place those balls right in receivers hands, 1 ’ Rice said. “It brings back a lot of memo ries to me. But you know. One thing I never told Joe. I never told Joe he was the greatest to ever play the game. It’s weird be cause you get caught up at times and you don’t think about situa tions like that until something happens. And he was the best to ever play the game.” Club teachesTae-Kwon-Do Sport offers students way to improve physical health, learn self-defense moves Kristina Buffin Thf. Battalion How can the typical A&M student get in shape, learn to protect themselves and be part of a long standing tradition? No, not by bulking up at Bon fire Cut, but rather by signing up for classes of fered by the Texas A&M Tae-Kwon-Do club. Eddie Bartimmo, president of the 23-year old club, compares the sport to kick boxing since some of the moves are alike. But Bartimmo said unlike the depiction of Tae-Kwon-Do in motion pictures, the class is less sensationalistic but nevertheless effective. “We give a well-rounded beginning introduction to Tae-Kwon-Do, “ Bartimmo said. “We achieve this with the use of kicks, and with showing the proper way to hit and punch.” Nearly 50 percent of participants in the class es get involved as a way to improve their physi cal conditioning. Bartimmo praises the sport as an excellent way for students to get into prime physical shape. “This beats getting into a leotard and doing aer obics, “ Bartimmo said. “(Tae-Kwon-Do) strength ens muscle groups, increases flexibility and aides in balancing the strength of the right and left ’ sides of the body.” Once achieving the highest level, a black belt many students enter competitions at the local arc national level. Member Christian Crowder says competition was the primary reason that he got involved “Competition highlights the art and different styles of Tae-Kwon-Do.” Crowder said. Another member of the club, black belt Nancy VanRiper began Tae-Kwon-Do because her father worried about her being able to defend herself when she left for college. Although she has never been in a situation where she has had to defend herself, she knows a few women who have success fully defended themselves with Tae-Kwon-Do against would-be attackers. Bartimmo says one of the main goals of the classes is to teach people basic moves to help them defend themselves. “We’re trying to prevent people from panicking when they are attacked, ” Bartimmo said. “Instead of freezing, the students learn various moves to safely get out of a dangerous situation.” Come in For A FREE Workout!
