It is not known if this idea could make a smooth transition to other professional sports. Women referees in the NFL may seem like a foreign idea to some and almost sacrilegious to many die-hard ma cho-men football fans. Heck, many don’t like the idea of Lesley Visser or any woman on the side lines dLiring the game. But as long as women know the rules of the game, why can’t they give it a shot? Oftentimes, we let our stereotypes and traditions stand in the way of change. So what if a woman has never con quered professional officiating? That is what change is all about. It took the Los Angeles Raiders hir ing Art Shell to break the color bar rier in professional football coach ing, maybe this will break the gender barrier in officiating. It is not only the NFL that women should look to as the new frontier, but Major League Base ball as well. Right now it seems as if the only credentials required to umpire in baseball is a receding hairline and a huge pot belly. So Burch Continued from Page 7 Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds said last week that Mackovic was not about to get the ax, but ru mors were circulating that boost ers were pitching in $1 million to buy out his contract. The Swami has one word of ad vice for the coach under fire — call your financial advisor concerning the best way to invest your retire ment fund. And John, the Dallas Cowboys may be in search of a new head coach at season’s end. Throw the Game Plan Out The Window Oklahoma State owed its explo sive 6-0 start in part to the Cow boys’ ability to hold onto the ball. Prior to Saturday’s loss to Mis souri, OSU had a turnover-to- takeaway rating of + 10 with 18 takeaways. But against Missouri, the Cowboys put the ball on the carpet four times and recovered just one turnover. The Cowboys also failed to stop the run, something it did during its six-game winning streak. OSU had held opponents to 360 yards on 164 carries, a 2.2 yards-per-car- ry average, through six games. But the Tigers rushed for 221 yards on 41 carries, an astounding 5.39 yards per attempt. I Heard That. Texas Tech place kicker Tony Rogers, after kicking a game-win ning 47-yard field goal with 19 seconds remaining in the 16-13 victory over Texas A&M: “Coach (Spike) Dykes always talks about making the best of your opportunities,” Rogers said “And I got the chance to do that.” Oklahoma sophomore quar terback Brandon Daniels, who has played at defensive back since high school, after his rush ing for 85 yards and scoring the Sooners only touchdown of the day in a 27-7 loss to Kansas State: “It felt good to get in the game as a quarterback again, but we why not women?Ifawom knows the ins and outset^ game rules, whydenyaw.| the right to wearafacen call balls and strikesmeidil cause of her gender?Thaiii* discrimination.
