Sports Time for some baseball heckling Welcome to a potpourri of sports tidbits. . BASEBALL: If the Portland Beavers keep los ing. Seattle Mariners’ owner George Argyros (soon to be the owner of the San Diego Padres) may just want to buy them He’d then have the worst team in both the minors and the ma jors. . Speaking of the hapless Beavers, the only reason their players continue to collide with each other is to get on the highlight films on the late night news. . .The door is being unlocked, and the handle is being turned. Yes. if the Chicago Cubs win a few more games, society will lie From the Sidelines By John F. Weber desecrated once again by those annoying Cub fans who only come out of the closet to express their sentiments of loyalty when their team is at or near the top of the National League East...Teams to keep an eye on — the U>s Angeles Dodgers (ugh:) and the New York Mets (ugh!). On second thought, let's just hope both teams fade into their respective cellars. . .Don’t count Boston out yet. The Yanks, Tigers, Brewers, lays, Indians and Orioles could all declare Chapter 11. Hey, Texaco did it! If I had to choose favorite college nicknames, they would be the following: Terriers (Boston University), Bisons (Bucknell). Chippewa* (Cen tral Michigan), Fightin' Blue Hens I Delaware), Golden Flashes (Kent State), Thundering Herr! (Marshall) and Leathernecks (Western Il linois) . . . If Sugar Kay l.eonard fights again, we'll all know it’s just for the money He beat llagler and has nothing left to prove . .I'm beginning to miss the IJSFL. For me, spring will never be the same... Wouldn't it be funny if Oklahoma linebacker Brian Bosworth was picked by the New York Giants He wouldn't have a prayer of starting. .Allowing fans to vote for starters in the Major league Baseball All-Star game is ridiculous. I-el'a see the best, not the most popular. . It's getting to be that people watch auto racing to see a crash just like they view hockey to see a fight. . .A recent change in the NBA lottery assures the the team with the worst record, this year it's the Los Angeles Clippers, of picking no lower than fourth in the NBA draft. I still think they'd la? better off in the CBA A fellow in Rome. Ga. recently played nine holes of golf and scored a 43 — with a putter. . . Alalmma basketball coach Wimp Sanderson on whether he's met sports agent Norby Walters, who has said he gives money to college athletes: "No. but I'd like to, just him and me. in a room by ourselves. One of us wouldn't come out ." Sounds like Wimp is no wimp Best joke about sports this week goes to talk show host David Letterman. "Apparently, the highest-paid team in the NBA is the lars Angeles Inkers. But the Phoenix Suns have a higher street value." Tavlor excluded from Pan-Am field Oregon’s Anthony Taylor was not included on the 12-man roster of the I’an American team which will compete for the United States this summer.
