Description
Contents: They’re Playing Rookie Roulette (Even the best young quarterbacks need a few years before they’re ready to start in the NFL. Todd Blackledge know this. He’s patient. John Elway doesn’t. He’s different), The ’83-’84 NHL Preview (Don Cherry, MHL-coach-turned-raconteur, presents his ice picks – pointed as always. Here’s why…the Bruins could burn out…the Rangers are in doubt…the Red Wings will rise…the Sabres will surprise. And, of course, who will win the cup (need you ask), For Sale: Dave Parker (Just a few years ago, many hailed Dave Parker as the best player in baseball, including the Pirates who gave him a fat contract. Then things went bad. Now the Bucs are back, Parker is up – and so is his contract), The Next Great American Hero (Why isn’t welterweight phenom Mark Breland already cashing in? Because that’s not in the script. The script reads: ’84 Olympics, Gold Medal, Madison Ave, Watch out), Taming The Mouth From The South (To hear Ben Bennett talk, you’d think he’s the best college QB since Jim McMahon. And, says the record books, he just may be), No More Cleveland Jokes (The Cleveland Cavaliers have long been the laughingstock of the NBA. Not any more. They’ll still lose – but nobody will laugh), Ten Things You Never Knew About The World Series (…And didn’t even know to ask. Now you do), The Strange Ways Of John McKay (It’s not been easy for a head coach in the NFL to be obscure. But somehow this man remains inscrutable. Take a closer look at Tampa Bay’s John McKay, who’d rather you didn’t), Interview: Mark Gastineau (He’s an awesome talent – and an awful hot dog. The New York Jets’ showy sack-dancer has made himself the best-known defensive player in the NFL – and the least liked. Oh, he knows you don’t like him, but he’s not going to change his ways) Departments – Fanfare, Sport Talk, Sport Quiz, Finish Line
