When you watch Super Bowl
XXXV this Sunday, be sure to
keep your eye on speedy Balti
■ more Ravens wide receiver
Patrick Johnson (#85).

After all, it
wasn’t that long
ago that John
son was streak
ing along the
sidelines of
Autzen Stadi
um and burn
ing the rubber
off the track of
Hayward Field.
JOHNSON
Johnson left
Oregon in the spring of ‘98 and
joined the Baltimore Ravens as
their second-round pick in that
year’s NFL Draft.
And now, in only his third sea
son, he will participate in the
supreme sporting event of the year
when his Ravens take on the New
York Giants at 3 p.m. Sunday on
CBS.
Johnson has quickly become a
key starter for the Ravens’ offense
and is always a deep-play threat.
Baltimore head coach Brian Billick
nicknamed him “The Tasmanian
Devil” because of his rapid speed.
Johnson leads the Ravens with an
18.1-yard receiving average.
While at Oregon, Johnson com
piled 3,844 all-purpose yards for
his work as a receiver and returner.
In track, he was an NCAA All
American sprinter in the 100- and
200-meters.
But it took awhile for Johnson to
be fully appreciated as a football
player and not just as a track
sprinter who happened to strap on
the pads in the fall.
“That’s my pet peeve,” Johnson
said in the fall of 1997. “I’m disap
pointed that I’ve always been
looked at as a track guy who plays
football. But the truth is, I’m on a
football scholarship. I’m a football
player.”
More than three years later, with
the Super Bowl looming in two
days, it’d be hard to argue with
Johnson on that point.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)—Today is a 7 —

GEMINI (May 21 -June 21) — Today is a 7 —
You thought you'd get away with everything,
but you might have to play by somebody else's
rules. Be sensitive to an older person’s wants,
needs and authority. Don't ignore the person
who's signing either your grade card or pay
CANCER (June 22-July 22)—Today is a 7 —
Yesterday you may have wondered if the clouds
that surrounded you had a silver lining. A deal
you were working on looked like it had gone
sour. Today blue sky's in your heart. Your
dreams are fulfilled in a way you never expect
ed.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)—Today is a 5 —Your
negotiations yesterday may have been more
successful that you realized. More money's out
there, waiting. You just don't have it all in your
pocket, yet. Don’t give up or get lazy. Your at
tention is requited!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6 —

your brain have the night off.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)—Today is a
6 — You've worried long enough. A loved one
