Supreme Court Big 12 presidents to
rejects NFL j • 1 £r
player appeals discuss revenue, playofl
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Supreme Court finally ended
the NFL’s eight-year-long labor
troubles on Monday by rejecting
the appeals of 18 players, in
cluding Cris Dishman of the
Houston Oilers, who said they
were wrongly forced to join the
$200 million settlement of the
antitrust lawsuit.
“It’s nice to finally get it over
with,” said Gene Upshaw, the
president of the NFL Players
Association, which sided with
the league in opposing the
suit.“We thought we were right
when we walked out of the
courtroom with the settlement
and today we finally ended it.”
The suit, tried in Minneapo
lis, was an outgrowth of the
1987 strike by players and led to
a labor agreement finally
reached in 1993. It included that
$200 million settlement.
However, the 18 players, in
two different suits, challenged
the settlement and, after being
turned down by the 8th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals, took
the case to the Supreme Court.
The court, however, declined
without comment to hear the
appeal of the players, some still
active. Had they taken it, they
would have brought a new ele
ment of uncertainty to the
league.
“ When you look at our situa
tion, we’ve got to learn from
what’s going on in other sports,”
Upshaw said.
The league agreed.
“We’re pleased that the mat
ter is resolved and the focus of
attention will continue to be on
the football field,” NFL
spokesman Greg Aiello said.
The suits challenged the way
the money in the $200 million
settlement was distributed as
well as free agency restrictions,
the college draft and pre-season
pay rules. The lawsuits sought
injunctive relief — an order re
quiring the NFL to change its
rules — and monetary damages.
One of the suits was filed as a
class action, purportedly in be
half of past, present and future
NFL players.
Eighteen players then carried
the case to the Supreme Court
in two appeals.
One was filed in behalf oFsix
— Dishman; his former Houston
teammate. Green Bay defensive
end Sean Jones; Leslie O’Neal;
William Mathews and Van
Waiters.
The other was filed in behalf
of Mark Dusbabek, Carl Lee,
former University of Houston
defensive back Audray McMil-
lian of the Minnesota Vikings,
Felix Wright, Cody Risien, Mark
Harper and Sammy Martin.
Kotsay named
Player of the Year
HOUSTON (AP) — Mark
Kotsay, a sophomore who led
Cal State-Fullerton to the 1995
NCAA baseball championship,
on Monday night received the
R.E. “Bob” Smith Award, sym
bolic of the college baseball
player of the year.
Kotsay set career College
World Series records this sea
son with his two grand slams
and .529 batting average (15 for
29).
In the championship game,
in which Cal St.-Fullerton beat
Southern California 11-5, Kot
say hit two home runs, driving
in five runs, and pitciied Hie fi
nal two innings. When not on
the mound, he was his team’s
centerfielder.
The award was presented at
the annual Smith Award dinner
at the Hyatt Regency in Hous
ton. Kotsay edged fellow final
ists Todd Helton, a first base-
man-pitcher from Tennessee.
q The new conference
is expected to raise as
much as $40 million
per year.
AUSTIN (AP) — Big 12 presi
dents are set to meet here today
to decide a variety of transition
issues, the most significant be
ing a revenue-sharing plan that
includes a football playoff.
The presidents, who have fi
nal approval on all major issues,
will consider proposals approved
last month by the league’s ath
letic directors and faculty repre
sentatives.
Besides the revenue-sharing
plan, other topics to be discussed
include academic eligibility re
quirements and where the new
league will locate its offices.
The Big 12, comprised of the
Big Eight plus Southwest Con
ference holdovers Texas, Texas
A&M, Texas Tech and Baylor,
plans to begin competition in
August 1996.
However, before play begins,
the issue of money must be
tackled by the council.
The revenue-sharing propos;
would let football powers tokee;
their gate receipts and rewar
schools for first-year NCAA1®
ketball tournament appear
ances.
As much as $40 millionitj
gross revenue is anticipated fe?

ing about $6 million from a foe
ball playoff between the Big IS
North and South division chae
pions.
Preliminary reports by Ste
Hatched, who becomes commi;
sioner of the league July 1, shot:
a playoff could generate
$500,000 to $550,000 per school
Athletic directors and leap
presidents like those numbers.
But all 12 football coaches opj
pose a playoff and believer*
could knock a team out of a®
jor bowl or a national champ
onship game. They contend tfe
as much or more money couldte
raised getting a second tear
into the major bowls each year
On academic eligibility,tt
presidents must decide whette

Magic cannot explain Finals
collapse versus Rockets
□ The defending champs
have beaten Orlando
three straight times.
HOUSTON (AP) — Until the
NBA Finals, the exuberant Or
lando Magic stared pressure in
the face and laughed. They
were young and in the NBA
playoffs and having a wonder
ful time.
The gaping grin and hulking
presence of Shaquille O’Neal
was everywhere. Nick Ander
son and Anfernee Hardaway
were slinging in big shots and
saying “why not now?”
Now they’re one game from
elimination and asking them
selves “what happened?” Sud
denly, they’re the guys who
can’t shoot straight.
“It’s very hard on us and
frustrating because you know
you’re better than you've
played so far,” Hardaway said.
“You want to go out and win a
game and show that you de
serve to be here.
“It’s almost like all the
games that we’ve won to get
here are going down the drain
if we don’t come back and win.”
The Magic is down to its fi
nal chance to get back in the
series on Wednesday night in
The Summit, and the tone in
O’Neal's voice prior to Mon
day's practice didn’t carry
much confidence.
“They’ve just been playing
big and Shooting the ball well,”
O’Neal said, his voice low and
barely audible. “I think we’ll
come out fired up.”
The Magic has been market
ed as the team of the future,
expected to become a fixture in
the NBA Finals.
John Gabriel, Magic vice
president of basketball opera
tions, wants the Magic to un
derstand it may not be that
easy.
“There are no guarantees on
making it to the NBA Finals,”
he said. “We have to treat it as
a special event. Do they under
stand? I don’t know, it’s some
thing we’ve tried to make them
understand, how special it is.”
Blame it on their youth or a
Rockets team that has im
proved throughout the playoffs.
It doesn’t matter to the Magic.
They’re still down 3-0 and not
playing well and can’t figure
ou t why
“The shots I’ve been missing
in the Finals, Tve been making
all Season,” Anderson said. “I
have to ask myself, ‘why non
To think of all the work I did:
get to this level. I was doing 1
well. Now nothing is working.
The Magic hasn’t shown tl
flash of earlier playoff series.
Although they eventual
lost, the Magic coolly dueled 1:
diana over an incredible 13
second span in which the lea:
changed four times before Rii
Smits hit a basket at the buzz::
for a 94-93 victory in Game 4.
the Eastern Conference finals.
When the Eastern Confe:
ence series was on the line:
Game 7, the Magic refused:
show their inexperience an
bombed the Pacers 105-81, ac
vancing to the NBA Finals fc
the first time.
But now their 3-poir
shooting is down. AndersonM
41.5 percent of his 3-pointersin
the regular season but only 33:
percent in three games again:
the Rockets.
Dennis Scott was the Mag
ic’s best 3-point shooter in tfc
regular season, hitting 42'
percent but he’s managed oni
a 21.6 average against th
Rockets. |
If the Magic’s shooting ey:
doesn’t return in Came 4, coacl
Brian Hill may consider mate!
ing Houston’s small lineup wit
Anthony Bowie and Donalc
Royal to get more penetration
But Hill doesn’t know howt
draw it up on the chalk boar
other than the way the ga®
unfolded. -
‘“Penetration is somethin:
we'd like more of but when:
broke down the tapes we go'
some great looks at the bask
last night,” Hill said. “1 told tbf
team, ‘we got all the shots we
wanted, exactly what we wen

“We just have to hope tha

you have to get some typed
penetration. : r;i
“We may have to see more:
Bowie and Royal to get us od
and running and slashing to
basket if we’re ineffective
shooting the ball.” f
Hill is looking for anything
to light a spark in the Magic of
fense. Running and slashing
could be the answer.
“It helps everybody,” Hili
said. “It gets Penny aggressive
and pushing the hall and look
ing for opportunities to get to
the basket in transition.
It gets Nick out on the
wings and Anthony Bowie as
runner on the wings.”
Jackson: Who elected him king?
Continued from Page 3
then again it came out when I was in the third
grade. I feel as though I have an excuse. Everyone
liked Jackson back then. He was right up there
with Debbie Gibson and the Jets. Those were his
glory days. He may have very well been on his way
to becoming the “king of pop,” but that was a long
time ago.
The rest of those cheese groups from his era
have since accepted that their time has come and
gone. But not Michael. He’s like a disease that
won’t go away and irritates you more as time
goes on.
The man, the myth, the tabloid king has since
deteriorated into a bonafide freak. Not to be com
pletely blunt, but if the shoe (or glove) fits, wear it.
Michael Jackson’s bizarre life has so completely
overshadowed his career enough that no one really
pays attention to his music anymore, which is sad.
Or is it? Sure, I’ve already admitted to owning
Thriller, but it’s not some kind of masterpiece.
So why is Jackson designated as the leader of
our generation? I guess it’s because he pretty
much invented pop music. I
think he should be hurt for sul
actions, seeing as how pop mu
sic is basically garbage, but
that’s just me.
I really want to know - are
there really die-hard Jackson
fans out there who think he ie
the greatest musician of thel^;
20 years? It would make me f eE
better if there are. Then I’d
know MTV’s plan to make
son’s HIStory video a central
part of its summer schedule a P
pealed to someone. So far, I ve
only seen people shiver, laugh or cry at the
thought of a summer full of the (hopefully) soon ' 1
be-ousted “king of pop.”
Jackson
