  After living in Boston for the last year, I can relate to this....I thought
  the city was going to shut off the electricity when Larry Bird retired!!
  But as someone so eloquently put it earlier, at least Larry retired in 
  style, after his body reached the point that it was NO LONGER COMPETITIVE
  AT THE PRO LEVEL!

  I too think that Joe Montana is about the best QB to EVER play football, but
  he's not anymore.  And in my totally amateur opinion, he'll never be at 
  that level again...he's simply taken too much abuse over too many years.

  I think it's great to admire a hero, and hold him (or her!) up to the world
  for praise, but please....I think the "opposing DBs quaking days" are over
  in respect to Mr. Montana.

  And by the way, Mr. Bradshaw looked pretty darn good while he won those 4
  super bowl rings too....I remember them well, because 2 of them came against
  the Cowboys!

  Just another person tired of reading about Joe "God" Montana.....

Speaking of silly...

Yes, it may be potent, but it seems that it isn't that complex as other
teams were able to utterly shut it down at the end of the season.  As I
don't have access to Mr. Kelly I.Q. scores I can't speak to whether he
is truly a genius of the n-th order wearing a chin-strap or not, but then
again, the standard one-liners usually testify to the contrary.

This is a great move by the Browns if it pans out. The center is such a

his age. Hilgenburg would be a great mentor to Thome and would certainly

This would be ideal, get rid fo Metcalf and not give up a high draft choice.

I keep hearing that the Browns are going to give up a third round draft pick
and thats it, seems to me they would be getting off cheap if this is all
they would have to do to get Hilgenburg.

If the Browns can come up with big bucks for Hilgenburg they certainly
can pay Slaughter what he deserves. This is one case where I am on the
side of the player, the Browns are paying Slaughter peanuts and he
deserves to be in the top five salary structures as far as NFL receivers
go.

Uh , No way. First, Indy will not go 0-8.

second, I predict N.E. will win 7-8 games.

This means another AFC EAST team will have about the same record as

The Broncos moved four players to IR today, all as expected:
 
WR Vance Johnson
RB Steve Sewell
RB Sammie Smith
S  John Granby
 
They called back two players from waivers:
LB Tim Lucas
LB John Sullins
 
They picked up:
K  Brad DaLuiso           <------ Surprise!
FB ??? Pritchard          <------ From Houston.  I never heard of him.
 
They still may make some more moves.  They currently have nine players
in the defensive backfield, one healthy tight end and three wide
receivers.  Reports are that Ricky Nattiel will sign sometime today,
and someone else might go on IR.

I, too, was pretty dismayed by what I saw.  I can imagine the
post-game tongue-lashing that the Redskins are going to get.  I just
hope they can do better come next Monday night.  If not, it's going to
be a long season....

There were a few bright spots, though.  Robert Green, Desmond Howard,
and Stephen Hobbs all looked pretty good.  Maybe the Redskins just
need a good kick in the rear to wake them up -- they won't win half

	I don't fall in the category of those who want to Joe to
quit--it's very premature to think he is finished, but the Blanda
comparison won't work.  Ole George spent all of his later years as the
place-kicker for the Raiders and he only had to quarterback the team once
in a while.  I never remember him taking a lot of tough hits once he was

He's also the Ol choice because Young rolls out and the line never knows where

Yes, but there is a difference between the long ball exhibition put on
the greatest hitters in baseball assembled (or the NBA slam dunk compe-
tition) prior to an all-star game and a pre-season "weed out" game.  In
fact,  one could make a point that  the very nature of the events  make 
them polar opposites.

Eric Green, IMHO, is the best TE in the league.  He has the hands and
agility of a wide reciever and the body of a lineman.  He also has
pretty good speed, too.   Plus, he is on team with no super
recievers....Lipps is too old and everyone else is a bit too untalented
so he'll get a lot of catches and touchdowns which will help out any
fantasy league football team.  Take my advice and go for him....you

I sure hope Joe does come back, just so the guys saying Montana is washed up 
will get one last look at the greatest quarterback of all time and get to 
eat their words.

I also see no evidence that Joe, if healthy, can not go to the Superbowl 
again.  He played well, while in pain, after his back surgery.  If anyone 
can make a comeback, it's Joe Montana.

RB Harry Sydney  -  From San Francisco
OG Joe Sims - Has anyone heard of him?


Terrell Buckley's agent came to Green Bay yesterday.  It appears Terrell
is close to signing a contract (just as you predicted, John).  The Packers
reportedly came up from their lastest offer of $1.35M/yr.  It will be 
interesting to see if the Packers request a roster exemption for Buckley
when he signs.  I would expect they would not and Buckley would at least
return punts immediately.

Has anyone seen a depth chart yet?

Woodson is down and out for 4 weeks, as are two other players in the
secondary.  Lake just signed, and will he regain his previous form of
two years ago?  Just when I thought that a change of regime would
help clear the air, this happens...Hopefully, the Steelers can weather
the first few weeks...I think they have a shot in the AFC Central if
they do...Anybody out there have any other Steeler's News?

Guys who might have made the team that I didn't see posted were
LB Darryl Ford and 6th round pick OT Larry Tharpe.  But I don't
know because I haven't seen a final roster.  I'll probably drive
into town on Sunday and pick up a Detroit paper.  It should
contain a Lions special section.  I also think Eric Sanders will start
at RT instead of Conover.

Injury report:  Cofer, Crockett and Moore are questionable, which
means they'll play, considering it's against DA BOORS, unless the
injuries are a lot worse than they think.  Looks like they got
through the pre season with no significant injuries.  Got to be
a first.
