Switzer looks for redemption
against Eagles on Monday night
IRVING (AP) — Barry Switzer
said it, and he's not going to apol
ogize for it.
After beating the Philadel
phia Eagles in the playoffs last
year, the oft-hyper Dallas Cow
boys coach hollered, “We kicked
their (expletive).”
To Switzer, the 30-11 victory
was redemption for a late-season
loss to the Eagles that featured his
ill-fated decision to go for it twice
on fourth-and-one. Dallas didn’t
make it and Philadelphia used the
good field position to kick the
game-winning field goal.
So his exclamation was aimed
at his critics, not his opponent.
Yet Eagles coach Ray Rhodes
didn’t take it that way.
As a result, a Dallas-Philly ri
valry appears brewing as the
teams prepare for their meeting
Monday night, the first get-to
gether since that playoff game.
This NFC East series hasn’t had
so much flair since Jimmy John
son accused Buddy Ryan of hav
ing a bounty on his players.
The latest spice: Rhodes plans

The package was apparently
addressed to Losse, one of four
team physicians for the Charg

served as the team’s orthopedic
surgeon since 1981 and has
his own practice, Oasis

ment in his pre-game film.
Presumably, he hopes to fire
up his team and inspire them to
kick Dallas’ (expletive).
This may be the perfect time for
Philadelphia (3-1) to extract re
venge. The Cowboys are 1-3, have
lost two straight and are showing
no signs of be
ing the defend
ing Super Bowl
champions.
Dallas al
ready is with
out suspended
receiver
Michael Irvin
and injured
tight end Jay
Novacek. Now,
receiver Kevin
Williams has joined the absent
list with a broken bone in his foot.
Although he’s not backing
down from what he said, Switzer
doesn’t fully understand the up
roar it caused.
“In no way did I feel I’d incite
him,” Switzer said. “Ray uses
those things to motivate his team,
but I didn’t mean it personally.”
Rhodes, though, insists his
anger is genuine.
He told The Dallas Morning
News: “When you make state
ments about how you kicked
somebody’s (expletive), I don’t
think there's a person in the league
that’s going to accept it and not be
offended. Everybody in the coun
try who saw that game on national
TV knows you got beat.”
In reality, Switzer’s few inflam
matory words were part of a larg
er picture. He explains:
“Someone brought up the
fourth-and-1 in Philadelphia. Not
just us beating Philadelphia,”
Switzer said, referring to a question
asked in the news conference fol
lowing the playoff game. “I said,
‘Hey, look, after kicking their (ex
pletive) today, don’t you think we
ought to bury that fourth-and-1?’ ”
After being told Rhodes was
upset by the comment, Switzer
responded: “Well, did we or
didn’t we?”’
This week, Switzer said he
was “just being cute” with that
snappy comment.
Oiler logjam
Nashville waiting until Congress adjourns to
begin construction on new 65,000 stadium
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) —
That silence you hear is
Nashville’s NFL plans on hold.
The city expected to see the
Houston Oilers playing the 1998
season in a brand-new 65,000-
seat stadium on banks of the
Cumberland River.
But four months have passed,
and not one brick or shovel of dirt
has been moved.
The reason? Blame it on the
Cleveland Browns.
When Art Modell moved the
beloved Browns to Baltimore and
the team became the Ravens, legal
recourses were quickly checked.
One such response was drafted
by Rep. Martin Hoke, R-Ohio,
who wanted the NFL to compen
sate a jilted city with a new team
or pay a bounty.
The NFL has held off allowing
Nashville to start construction un
til Congress adjourns and Hoke’s
“Fan Freedom and Community
Protection Act” is officially dead.
Until then, “We’re just running
out the clock ...,” Nashville Mayor
Phil Bredesen said.
Congress is expected to adjourn
no later than Oct. 4, and Bredesen
will be ready. There are a final
round of documents to sign with
the Oilers and the NFL and a
pledge the city won’t sue the NFL.
Then Bredesen can sign a con
struction contract.
“When those three things are
done and when a construction
contract is signed ... then we’ve got
a team in place,” Bredesen said.
Bredesen doesn’t think
Nashville has been held hostage,
but the delays caused by Hoke’s
bill means Nashville’s stadium
will not be finished until 1999.
That forces the Oilers to play
in Memphis’ Liberty Bowl
Memorial Stadium for the first
year in Tennessee.
“Bud (Adams, Oilers’ owner,) has
asked me about that and I have said
it makes a lot of sense to try and de
velop a following in Memphis.
“There were some pretty hard
feelings,” Bredesen said. Mem
phis worked 20 years for its own
NFL team only to see the Oilers
dropped into Nashville’s lap.
The wait also means that vot
ers, who approved the relocation
deal May 7, have seen little proof
that Music City is joining the NFL.
