European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - February 20, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Tuesday february 20, 1990 the stars and stripes Page 23 commentary insult causes nothing but my a of sport California school officials got in Back Ward a week ago after a coach pulled his team off the court. Gil Ramirez withdrew his South tar ranch High school team after Lisa Leslie of Morningside High  scored ii Points in the first half. Leslie  been Given Cane Blanche by her coach Frank Scott in an attempt to break Cheryl Miller s National one game record of 105 Points. Morningside look a 102-24 Lead at halftime. With an injury and foul disqualifications dropping South Torrance to four players. Ramirez did t think it was Wise to continue and he was right. Letting one player stage a Point rampage is disrespectful not Only of a weak opponent but also of the reserves on the Strong team who just might like to Sec How it feels to make a Basket or two. This gesture by a coach suggests that selfishness is Good which is Fine for students planning to be junk Bond hustlers or company gobblers or Deal makers our National heroes from the 80s. A scoring frenzy against a hapless opponent is about what you might expect in an age when television promoters arc setting up inter regional grudge games As if these 17-year-Olds were heavyweight con tenders and newspapers run National rankings just to raise the Ante. At first the authorities suspended Ramirez but eventually they reinstated him. They  the right idea about suspension. They just  the wrong coach. Speaking of selfishness Public contempt seems to be growing for notre Dame since it abandoned the College football association to form its own $30 million five year television Deal. While notre Dame has clearly shown it docs not need friends partners or allies it docs the last time we checked still need opponents. Abc is not paying All those dollars to watch the Green play the Gold in an intr squad game. Would t it be delicious if Abc now gently suggested that notre Dame forget its trivial objections to Miami and get the hurricanes Back on the schedule by 1991, in fact and was t it delightful the Way Kansas dumped notre Dame from its basketball schedule in 1992 and 1993? what if nobody wanted to play the rogue elephant of College sports and speaking of television major league baseball assured the Public not to worry just because it cancelled the old Abc game of the week in favor of the new lbs game of the month policy. There would still be plenty of saturday afternoon games on the free channels baseball claimed. Guess what the acts Yankees and red sox have scheduled a total of four saturday aft inc in games on free television this season. The slam Dunk Competition was Fine As Long As it was a relatively informal gig on saturday afternoon almost an anti event with the Young guns measuring themselves against the standards set by Elgin Baylor Connie Hawkins and Julius Erving dunks per formed in real games against live defenders. But now that the slam Dunk has been made the Linchpin of a saturday night television program the activity has deteriorated into a trash sport. Even Dominique Wilkins. Who won the slam Dunk this year admitted How Many different ways arc there to Dunk a Ball worse the contest has become a blatant shill for sneakers. Wilkins. Who was to play in the All Star game on sunday Only agreed to participate in the Dunk hype on saturday when his sneaker sponsor told him it would be Good for business. So Wilkins showed up performed a few of the same old churning Windmill dunks and was voted the Winner in rather Peculiar judging one might add. At the press conference afterwards an agent walked up to the dais whispered something in Wil Kins s car and the player then attributed his Victory to the extra lift in my pumps a blatant plug for his Brand. To his credit. Wilkins delivered the promotion with a Broad Wink like David a Elterman disassociating himself from a Gross Pun he is about to deliver from the Cue cards. The reporters groaned and for gave Wilkins the plug. The Dunk and the 3-Point contests Are not As much fun As the legends game anyway. Younger fans can appreciate the vestigial skills of Hawkins who still wears his 20-year-old Canvas Chuck Taylor Converse Low cuts. I could t figure out How to lace up these new sneakers Hawkins said the other night. You need a i . For that. Besides there is something wrong with $165 sneakers. You be got kids killing kids for their sneak ers. I saw it on the news. I m clicking with my old  the Aba should go Back to basics too. David Stern should clutch the slam Dunk contest in his hot Little hands and perform a 360-Dcgrce-whirling-Dcrv ish double Darryl Dawkins downward stuff into the nearest dumps or.
