IN BRIEF
Former NFL star claims
pipe belonged to friend
When police found a marijuana
pipe in Michael Irvin’s car, the former
Dallas Cowboys star said it belonged
to his brother, contradicting earlier
statements he made to the media.
“It’s my brother’s, he left it in
there,” a police officer quoted Irvin as
saying in a court document obtained
by The Dallas Morning News.
The officer also wrote that the
pipe and plastic baggies with mari
juana residue were found in a
Versace sunglasses case under a
driver’s seat compartment.
Irvin, now an NFL analyst for
ESPN, told The Associated Press on
Sunday, and repeated in an inter
view Monday with ESPN Radio,
that the pipe belonged to a friend
with a drug problem.
He declined to name the friend to
the AP, but said it was someone he’s
known for 17 years. Irvin is the third
youngest of 17 children. He’s 39 and
his youngest sibling is around 30.
In the AP and ESPN Radio inter
views, Irvin said he cares more
about getting those closest to him
off drugs than he does being induct
ed into the Pro Football Hall of
Fame. He was named among 25
semifinalists last week.
“More important to me is to help
my friends and help my brother and
to remove this drug addiction spirit
out of my family,” Irvin told on
ESPN Radio.
Irvin won three Super Bowls in
four years with the Dallas Cowboys
as part of an offense that also fea
tured "IYoy Aikman and Emmitt
Smith. A vocal, emotional leader, he
set every significant career receiving
mark in team history before retiring
because of an injury suffered in 1999.
In 1996, Irvin pleaded no contest
to felony cocaine possession in ex
change for four years of deferred pro
bation, a $10,000 fine and dismissal
of misdemeanor marijuana posses
sion charges. He also was arrested on
drug possession charges in 2000, but
they were later dropped.
According to the new documents,
Irvin was driving a 2005 Mercedes
Benz SL55, with his wife also in the
car, on the North Dallas Tollway on
Friday afternoon. He was pulled
over for going 78 mph in a 60 mph
zone. Although he also was cited for
failing to signal while changing
lanes and for failing to carry his dri
ver’s license, he was not ticketed for
those two violations.
A routine computer search turned
up an outstanding arrest warrant for
a speeding ticket in Irving. That led
to the vehicle being searched. Irvin
declined to consent to the search, but
the request is procedural.
Irvin was released after paying a
$335 fine for the arrest warrant and a
$256 bond. The paraphernalia charge
is a Class C misdemeanor, punishable
by up to a $500 fine.

Notes: Defensive effort and
rebounding impresses Smith
Continued from page 9
and shooting .385 from the field, in
cluding .313 from three-point range.
“In the past, I’ve never had the
greatest preseason,” Davis said. “I’m
more than satisfied with where my
role is. We are winning and that is all
I ask for.”
All 12 Oregon players played Mon
day1 and just three played 20 minutes
or more. Oregon’s bench scored 52 of
the Ducks 70 points.
Hitting the boards
Oregon outrebounded a shorter and
scrappier Arkansas team 50 to 30 Fri
day as the Ducks allowed 12 offense
boards. Arkansas had only one player
taller than six feet in 6-foot-2 Kristina
Andjelkovic, and she only played for
eight minutes. Drake presented a larg
er challenge with 6-foot-tall players
Lindsay Whorton (five rebounds] and
Brandy Dahir (six) and 6-foot-1 for
ward Jill Martin (four).
Oregon held a 40-to-33 rebound
advantage against Drake and gave up
16 offensive rebounds. Oregon held
Drake to 21.7 percent shooting and
10.5 percent from three-point range.
“I’m very pleased with our desire
to be a great defensive team and
(how we) help each other out,”
Oregon coach Bev Smith said.
