Death won't stop Eagles
The Associated Press
WEST CHESTER, Pa. — While Mike Golic realizes there will be a microscope on whoever plays the position once filled by the late Jerome Brown, he says he has enough years in the league to handle the pressure.
"I can't replace Jerome Brown."
Golic said Thursday during a break at the Eagles' training camp at West University's training university. "I can't get his numbers."
Brown, a Pro Bowdefensive tackle, was killed June 25 in a car accident in Brooksville, Fla. Last season, he recorded 150 tackles and nine sacks while helping lead the Eagles to the top ranking in almost every defensive category of NFL statistics.
Two others on the defensive line, Reggie White and Clyde Simmons, were Pro Bowl players, while Mike Pitts also played well.
Golic backed up Brown and Pitts, getting in about one-third of the time last season.
This year, the eight-year veteran is penciled in to start in Brown's place.
He has only 20 starts in his career
"I know there's going to be a microscope on whoever's going to be playing that defensive tackle position," he said. "That's why I felt I had to get into voluntary camp. I wanted the work. I wanted to get in the best shape I could."
"Mike and I have been in the league 10 and eight years. We know what has to be done. We're still hoping to get a good rush."
That puts pressure on the players in pass coverage, but Golic said the veterans back there understood.
but, he said, the Eagles' defensive scheme still emphasized stopping the running game first.
"They know what they have to do," Golic said. "We've got a good system here. We've got good guys."
He said he believed that the team could pull together and make up for the loss of Brown without trading for another player. The Eagles reportedly have been interested in Chicago's William Perry.
"I'm hoping they don't bring someone new in," Golic said. "In the last
few years, I felt that I could have started for other teams, that I could have played every down. But I've liked working here."
In addition to very capable veterans, he said, second-year defensive end Andy Harmon was playing well. Golic also praised third-round draft choice Tommy Jeter, who plays defensive tackle.
"All he needs is more game time," Goleic said. "He seems to be showing him how it works."
He said the players were still upset about Brown's death.
"We aren't going to ever forget him," he said. "We come into the locker room and still expect to hear him."
But, Golic said, his teammates were professional enough to put aside their feelings when they put on their nads.
"We're not packing up this season," he said. "We want to go on. We have to go on."
He said Brown would have understood.
"Jerome wanted to be a SuperBowl champ as much as we do."
Injury-free Braves top league
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves have the best record in baseball in part because of the team's uncanny ability to avoid injuries.
The Braves are the only team whose top four starting pitchers have not missed a turn in two seasons.
Tom Glavine, Steve Avery, John Smoltz and Charlie Leibrandt have pitched in a game they were scheduled to play.
The Braves orthopedic surgeon credits a good conditioning program and a staff that notices potential problems.
The Braves, who lead the National League West, have been relatively injury-free this season, except for pitcher Mike Bieleck. He will miss the rest of the season with a torn ligament in his pitching elbow.
Reds trainer Larry Starr said the injuries have been unavoidable.
The second-place Cincinnati Reds have not been as fortunate. Ten players have spent time on the disabled list this season, including four former All-Stars. Starting pitcher Tom Browning is gone for the year. Third baseman Chris Sabo continues to play, because he has been hobbled all year by an ankle injury.
"Our injuries this year are not due to off-season conditioning or lack of it," Starr said. "They're all collision injuries."
Chandler said that, although off-season conditioning could not prevent injuries, it could speed up recovery and reduce the number of nagging injuries such as ligament strains and hamstring pulls.
"You can't lift weights to make injuries not happen," said Glavine, the 1991 National League Cy Young winner. "But you certainly can lift weights to make yourself in shape to try and prevent a lot of things."
Union regulations prohibit teams from requiring players to work out during the off-season, but almost all the Braves are conscientious about staying in shape, Chandler said.
Reds manager Lou Piniella said he wished players would take it easy during the off-season and use spring training to get in shape.
"With more players living in Atlanta during the off-season, it is easier," Chandler said. "They come into the stadium to work out."
Tommy Lasorda, manager of the injury-riddled Los Angeles Dodgers, said some players could take weight lifting to an extreme.
"It seems to me that guys work out all year-round. I don't think that is a particularly good thing." Lasorda said. "I think they have to give their body time to regenerate."
Chandler said that it was possible to work out too much. "I think that you can overtrain if you get too bulky and don't maintain flexibility, but it is such an individualized thing," he said.
3,000th hit eludes Yount during slump
The Associated Press
Yount needed just 122 hits entering the season to become only the 17th player to reach 3,000. But the question these days is not so much when he will arrive at the magic number, but if he can get there at all this season.
MILWAUKEE — Stop the presses.
At least for the time being. Those special newspaper sections and an 80-page book ready to proclaim and celebrate Robin Yount's 3,000 hit are no longer issues of urgency.
Yount, a two-time Most Valuable Player, is still 23 hits shy and in one of the worst slumps of his 19-year career, an enormous slide that has dropped his average from .291 in mid-June to .242.
On Thursday, Yount bounced back a bit, going 3 for 5, including a triple and a double, and driving in three runs in the fourth game over Toronto. Still, he is struggling.
"I've felt pretty good for quite a while, but I just haven't been able to get anything going," said Yount, who turns 37 next month. "It's not that I haven't felt good, that's for sure."
"There have been some times over the last six weeks or whatever where I kind have been, you know, lost. But for the most part I felt pretty good. After a while it can work on you, even though you're feeling good and not getting any results."
The talk of 3,000 hits began to surface in earnest two years ago and has intensified as the unassuming Yount, always reluctant to speak about individual accomplishments, tries to sort out his problems at the plate.
He will admit that the 3,000-hit discussion has been a distraction, but he will not blame his slump on it.
"Obviously, it's a topic of conversation every day, somewhere along the day somebody will say something about it," he said. "It's pretty difficult not to think about it."
Every time he does get a hit or enters another one of baseball's all-time category, it is flashed on the County Stadium scoreboard for all to see.
"If would be nice to go ahead and get it, and it would be one less thing on my mind."
