Guess I have to put a lid on Dibble's quote insults replacement players Rob Dibble Chicago White Sox reliever The Associated Press SARASOTA, Fla. — Suspended White Sox reliever Rob Dibble has apologized for criticizing replacement players and was free to rejoin Chicago's minor leaguers yesterday. "I've always been known for having a big mouth," Dibble said. "Guess I have to put a lid on it." His agent, Dennis Gilbert, said the relationship between White Sox general manager Ron Schueler and Dibble was fine, and the pitcher would return to camp yesterday. Dibble was suspended indefinitely Sunday for conduct unbecoming to a White Sox player, Schueeler said, adding that Dibble criticized the team's major-league players. Dibble was quoted in Saturday's Chicago Tribune as saying replacement players were "going to be labeled like child molesters for the rest of their lives. "You're never going to get rid of that label." Dibble also called replacement baseball a beer league and said Chicago's minor-leaguers could beat the replacement players. "I said a few things off the cuff," Dibble said. "Most of the time I say stupid stuff in a funny way, but the way it was written in the paper was not how it came out of my mouth. "But what's done is done, and I can't take it back. I apologized to (Schueler), and it's not going to happen again." Schuler said Dibble's comments had not violated a team rule. "It was a rule I had with him," Schueler said. "It was an understanding we had. This was Dibble's ninth suspension. While with the Cincinnati Reds, he was suspended for such acts as throwing a bat into a screen, throwing balls at a player and a fan and charging onto the field during a brawl. "When we signed him, he had said some things, a little name-calling on ESPN before he got here. I brought him in and said, 'If you have any problem with any of this, you shouldn't be in this camp.'" The White Sox signed the two-time National League All-Star to a minor league contract this year. Eagles get Watters with unmatched offer $6.9 million lures 49er to Philadelphia The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — To the Philadelphia Eagles, a Super Bowl title is worth a Heisman Trophy any day, particularly when there's an eight-year age difference. The Eagles on yesterday released Herschel Walker and introduced Ricky Watters, a 25-year-old running back who won a Super Bowl two months ago with San Francisco. Watters' youth and championship ring made the difference to Philadelphia coach Ray Rhodes, who said the 33-year-old Walker would have had to compete for a roster spot if he accepted a pay cut and stayed with the team. proven by his spot on a championship team. But he saw in Watters a talent Rhodes, San Francisco's defensive coordinator last year, called Walker, a two-time Pro Bowl selection and the Eagles' offensive MVP the past two years, a good football player. "Ricky Watters has done these things. It's proven. It's on tape." Rhodes said at a news conference for Watters phia, Walker rushed for 2,344 yards and had 1,388 receiving. He played fullback, running back, tight end and on special teams. Walker, who was to make $1.3 million to $1.5 million in 1995, said he told the team he would rather be released than take a pay cut. He said Monday he had made sacrifices for the team and wanted to explore his options elsewhere. "I love Philadelphia. I love the "I made $1.2 million last year when I should have made $1.5 million," Walker told The Philadelphia Inquirer. "I took a cut to help them out with their money problems. This is not about salary cap; it's about respect." In three seasons with Philadel- fans. I told them I want to finish my career here. I gave my life for this football team on the field," he said. "It's like I took a bath with the wrong soap and I smell. Now they do not want to be bothered with me." new green jersey, seemed overjoyed yesterday to be leaving a Super Bowl team for one that didn't make the playoffs the past two seasons. He said it was a strategic career move. Watters, grinning and mugging for cameras with his "I'm 25 years old. I'm still young. It's a time for me to start over." Watters said. "It was a time we were going to make a move or I was going to be a 48er forever." Watters officially became an Eagle last Saturday when San Francisco declined to match a three-year, $6.9 million offer. After a minicamp practice yesterday, Watters said Rhodes' offensive scheme, the same one used in San Francisco, is ideal for quarterback Randall Cunningham. "I think it's going to be like throwing darts." Watters said. A Harrisburg, Pa., native, Watters made the Pro Bowl in 1992 and 1993. Over the past three seasons, he led the 49ers in rushing with 2,840 yards and 25 touchdowns on 653 carries. He also caught 140 passes for 1,450 yards and eight receiving touchdowns. Last year, Watters led the Super Bowl champions with 877 rushing yards and was second in receiving with 719 yards.
