Cowboys get
slow start at
training camp
AUSTIN (AP) — After watch
ing his team’s first scrimmage,
Dallas Cowboys coach Barry
Switzer said Sunday he saw too
many mistakes, mental errors
and penalties.
And, oh yeah, the team’s out
of shape, too.
“We are not in good enough
shape to go play somebody,”
Switzer said of a team that will
scrimmage the Houston Oilers on
Wednesday and open the presea
son against Buffalo on Saturday.
“We had guys shoving and
not pursuing the ball, slow get
ting up and getting back to the
ball. But I’m not worried about
it. We’ve got five weeks to do it.
That’s what camp’s all about,”
said Switzer, who earlier in the
week praised several veterans
for being in great shape.
Four offensive and defensive
units took turns running plays
before 5,000 fans at a local high
school stadium in nearly 100-de
gree heat. The team’s star run
ning backs, Emmitt Smith and
Daryl Johnston, were kept out of
action to avoid injuries.
The only touchdown of the
day came with the third-team
unit on the field. Oronde Gads
den, a rookie free agent receiver
from Winston-Salem, caught a
48-yard pass from Jason Gar
rett, slipped by rookie corner-
back Artis Houston and dove
into the end zone.
Gadsden later appeared to
have possession of another
pass near the end zone before
it was stripped.

Hoopin' it up for charm
Four players scramble for a loose ball at Saturday's Brazos Vafe
HOOP-N-WHOOP basketball tournament in Bryan.
GeorgANDIS: Where
have all the heroes gone?
Continued from Page 3
back Warren Moon. I figured it
was another training camp sto
ry, probably in regards to the
fact that 1995 will likely be his
last season.
I was wrong.
Moon’s wife had fled their
Missouri City home after he
reportedly choked her, slapped
her and pursued her in his
car. She returned home later
and said she will not press
charges, but Missouri City of
ficials went ahead and did it
themselves. Moon blamed the
incident on “marital strain”
and apologized profusely for it
during a press conference Fri
day from his home.
This all comes less than a
year after Moon was named in a
sexual harassment suit by a
Minnesota Viking cheerleader.
Despite playing for the often-
controversial Oilers for nine sea
sons, Moon remained a pillar in
the community. His Crescent
Moon Foundation helped count
less Houston-area youths enjoy
better lives.
Maybe it hurts even more
because Moon is a personal fa
vorite. He was such an icon of
Houston sports in his decade
there. He was the big role
model off the field and the
valiant warrior on the field,
giving it his all every Sunday,
but ultimately always coming
up just a little short.
Moon’s image is now tar
nished beyond repair. He is no
longer an all-pro quarterback,
not with the media’s pack of dogs
is on his trail.
The next day, trouble reared
its ugly head in baseball.
Duke Snider made it to the
baseball’s Hall of Fame in 1980,
which was the last year that
Willie McCovey played the
game. McCovey hit 521 home
runs in his career and made it to
the hall six years later.
Snider was so famous during
his prime with the Brooklyn
Dodgers that he was included in
the popular 1950s New York
tune “Willie, Mickey and the
Duke” along with Mantle and
Willie Mays.
Both men are all-time
greats and both men were
indicted Thursday on tax
charges stemming from the
sale of baseball memorabilia.
With the high demand for
items from older baseball play
ers, Snider and McCovey can
make what used to be two
months’ salary in an afternoon
at a baseball card show.
It seems both men thought
they deserved a little more of
the money than they were al
ready given, and neither one
did a very good job of report
ing their earnings to the Inter
nal Revenue Service.
The troubles of these four
athletes are nothing new to
the world of sports. It’s almost
like America’s watching to see
who will be the next hero to
fall from grace.
Last year, it was O.J. Simp
son. In years past, it has been
Pete Rose, Darryl Strawberry,
Dwight Gooden and Roy Tarpley.
Some athletes argue that
they are unfairly expected to
live by a higher standard than
the rest of us because of their
public exposure. Maybe that’s
somewhat justified, but it is a
life they
have chosen
for them
selves.
Hitting a
ball is not a
whole lot of
responsibili
ty for a man,
especially
when he is
getting paid
$5 million a
year for it.
But the off-the-field responsi
bilities that go along with the
job are monumental.
Wearing a jersey with a
team’s name and the name of a
city automatically makes that
person a representative of a
corporation and a community.
Screwing up one’s personal
life goes a long way toward de
faming the team and tarnish
ing the image of the city.
Keeping one’s life clean and
respectable is where a lot of
the $5 million is earned.
Hopefully, others will learn
from the mistakes made by
Moon, Blades, Snider and Mc
Covey. But, you would have
thought those four men would
have learned from the faults of
their predecessors too.
