In the first case, T think that sometimes we tend to fprget that the players are not NFL and tend to make mistakes. If the only reason we go to the game is to criticize the players and the coaches, then it would be in the best interest of the players and the school if we "Deadwood Dick presenta- month President Reagan told the.
