Of course, the only thing Eagle fans have to look forward to in the next ten or
twenty years (until Jimmy Johnson retires) is cheering for the other team each
time Dallas goes to the Superbowl.  I mean, you guys have no hope of getting
there.  You have an organization which does not know how to win.  You are going
to start losing your star players to free agency (I mean, who would want to
play in Philly?) and should in the near future have trouble competing with
Phoenix.  You are lucky you got your licks in on us when JJ was rebuilding,
because as long as he is there, you won't do it again.  The last two times
Dallas played Philly, it was sheer physical domination.  Get used to it.

Prediction- Dallas in a blowout.

Since there has been many questions on how recruiting has been going for SC,
here is what I know so far.

1. Since USC has som many returning players comming back this year, they don't
   have that many scholarships to offer. To be honest I don't know the exact
   number but have heard that it is around (or a bit less than) ten.

2. The major person commiting to SC actually didn't make football recruiting
   wires, mostly because basketball is his forte. His name is Stais Boseman.
   He has labeled as one of the best all-around athletes ever to come out of
   high school. He played quarterback at Morningside High School (but so did
   alot of SC greats that starrred at diffrent positions), but will redshirt
   his first year to concentrate on basketball. The reason he has not been
   talked about recently, because he committed to SC even long before Smith
   was fired, and still is under Coach Robinson.

3. Another "blue-chipper" in the running is running back Saladin McCullough
   from Muir High in Pasadena. He has stated that he has always wanted to be
   a SC tailback, but is also looking at other schools as well.

4. One blue chipper changed his commintment from SC to UCLA. His name is Andy
   Meyers, offensive lineman from Fontana High in San Bernadino. Meyers was out
   all this past season with a broken leg suffered on the first game of the
   season.

This is all I know so far and will update any more when they are made available

Jeff Forde, a 6-3, 210-pound QB from Staten Island, has verbally committed
to attend Wisconsin. Forde chose UW over Georgia Tech, Washington State,
Rutgers and Virginia. Forde threw for over 2,000 yards his junior year and
for 54 TDs and over 5,000 yards in his last three seasons. Academics won't
be a problem for Forde as he has already passed a college entrance exam easily
and has a 3.2 GPA in high school.

Said his coach Brad Olivieri, "He's truly the All-American kid and Wisconsin
is right for him. I can't tell you how many coaches have called and said
`Great decision.'" Forde played in the run and shoot, calling every play at
the line and used his 4.6 speed to elude defenders.

UW also got a committment from Dwayne Cuff, a 6-foot, 175-pound safety from
Philadelphia. Clocking 4.3 in the 40, Cuff is the latest burner to join UW's
'93 class.

John Mackovic complained about the same thing, aimed at Texas, last
season.  And several Midwestern coaches have complained about similar
incidents.  Either the problem is pretty widespread, or else coaches
love to blame others for recruiting failures.

(I've been planning to ask Mackovic about it on one of this call-in
shows during recruiting season.  I'm sure he won't name names, though.)

  Of course having Walsh at Stanford doesn't hurt any :-)  But that team
is essentially Green's team, so they should still recruit well as long
as they are a top-20 team.  Even if they weren't, Walsh would still pull
the recruiting class up.

  This could be the first time in a while for the southern California
PAC-10 teams to take the California recruits away from Washington, being 
that they are not in the top-5/10 anymore and the recruiting violations.

  Of course, now these schools will have to compete with Stanford and
Cal (I can't believe Cal is recruiting that well- what is Gilbertson
using to entice High School graduates that Stanford doesn't have?).
At least the California talent will be staying in-state :-)

Sorry!  Nice Try!  The guy who almost made Young a permanent part of the
turf (I have never seen a non-hit turned into such a big deal..., maybe
Young would have sidestepped and still hit Rice for the TD..) was 
the #1 #1 pick in 1990, one Russell Maryland.  It was not Charles Haley.
They Haley legend has gotten so big that the cowboys had to inflate
his QB pressure stats (the team reports those, they are NOT an official
NFL stat, by the way) to keep the media and his ego happy.

Anyway, your entire argument is moot.  check the tape, the guy who
almost separated Young from his head and limbs (isn't this supposition
great) and was held was the DL out of Miami....

	Do the owners/coaching staffs/players have any control over these
ridiculous halftime shows during the Superbowl.  For the past 10 years
the average length of a Halftime has been 37 minutes.  All of this media
bullshit has got to stop!!!!  I can't believe that the league and teams
allow these idiotic performers/producers ruin the most important day in 
professional football.  I hear the excuse that "it brings in a lot of money."
What a crock!!!  I do believe that the reason that people pay a minimum of
$125 for a ticket to the big show, is to see the most hard-hitting, well
played football game of their lives.  Maybe I'm just too much of a purist,

Nope lameness doesn't have anything to do with it.  Madden usually puts folks
he's had a chance to see in action. Since he covers a lot of NFC teams (in
particular the NFC East teams), his picks tend to center on teams from this
divison.  Like he said during the selection, he hasn't had a chance to see
Buffalo play this year hence the absence of Thurman, Bruce Smith and Co.
from the selection.  

I was surprised at the glaring absence of Sterling Sharpe... Madden has had
a chance to cover a Packer game and one would think that having broken the
single season record for receptions would garner him a vote!

Don't forget that the team that had to make the 32 pt comeback was the Bills
backup team, who also won the next week over Pittsburg, the "Best" team in the
AFC. Also, was it the consistant Cowwimps who lost to the Eagles? Well,
rather, embarrassed by the Eagles? Didn't the Cowgirls also lose to the
Cardnals? And who had to play the #2 toughest schedule? wasn't the Cowwimps. I
agree that Dallas has a good Defense, but don't forget that they only went up
against a very limited few quality offenses. The Seahawks, Denver, and Raiders
do not have quality offenses, so the "rating" system is somewhat off.
Remember, it rates on sheer numbers, not quality faced.
