00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:18,000
On April 29, 1985, the Orlando Renegades faced the New Jersey Generals at the Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New Jersey for a Week 10 matchup in the USFL's third season.

3
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:25,000
The Renegades were coached by Lee Corso in their first season in Orlando after having transferred the franchise from the Washington Federals in 1984.

4
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:32,000
New Jersey was coached by Walt Michaels and entered the game with a 7-2 record atop the USFL's Eastern Conference.

5
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000
This game had additional significance as it was being played just when the USFL had won its antitrust suit against the NFL.

6
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,000
This allowed the league to schedule their 1986 season with games in the fall.

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:50,000
The decision doesn't affect this game specifically, but the broadcast does involve quite a bit of discussion with executives on the future of the league.

8
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,000
This includes an extensive fourth quarter in-game interview with Generals owner Donald Trump.

9
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:23,000
This audio recording is from the WABC Radio broadcast featuring announcers Charlie Steiner and Dave Herman.

10
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:33,000
This is the stand-by. The guys have been in there for the longest period of time, but the other guys surrounding them, Stroth, Mackie, and Mags make for a very fine offensive line.

11
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
One of the better offensive lines in this league.

12
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Well, the Orlando Renegades have won the toss and have elected to receive. The Renegades are retired in white uniforms with blue piping and numerals.

13
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,000
The Generals will be in their familiar home uniforms, the red jerseys, white numerals, white pants, and red piping.

14
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,000
And again tonight we're not going to see John Joyce. Bob, you had a chance to talk to him right before the game, did you not?

15
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,000
I talked to John Joyce. He is on the sideline here. Of course he's not dressed. He's been working hard and rehabilitating his knee.

16
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:07,000
He feels that he can run straight ahead and back up pretty well with it. He's in a brace, but he can't go laterally, and that's the big thing he needs as a linebacker, that lateral movement.

17
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:12,000
He feels that he's still going to be questionable next week against Jacksonville, but he isn't proving each day.

18
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:17,000
The referee for tonight's game, Bill Parkinson. The umpire is Carl Pagawelli.

19
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:25,000
The headlines have been Hayden Terry, the line judge Larry Hill, the back judge Chet Nistapano, the side judge Ted Collado, and the field judge is Bob Mantoo.

20
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Jerry Parrish is standing back at his own five yard line anticipating the kickoff from Roger Ruzik.

21
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Coming up at halftime, the Commissioner of the USFL, Harry Usher, and more about today's meetings in Teaneck.

22
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:46,000
In the second half, Donald Trump will be joining us in the Generals' broadcast booth to talk about the Generals' aspect of this very big story out of Teaneck, New Jersey, of all datelines today.

23
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Donald is welcome anytime he stops by. That's right. His bats and balls are in there.

24
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Here's Ruzik making his way toward the football, and we are underway. It's a gorgeous night in the metropolitan area.

25
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Parrish, two yards deep in the end zone running straight ahead to the 10, to the 15, and he is down shy of the 20 yard line.

26
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000
The Generals' special teams once again doing the job.

27
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:15,000
As Frank Manning came up to make the tackle along with Kyle Borland, and Kyle Borland was a great story for the Generals last week, replacing the injured John Joyce.

28
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:23,000
He was the leading tackler with 10. Yeah, he was, and I gotta tell you, that's gotta be a good credibility to Walt Michaels and his staff, and a good thing for that young man, too.

29
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,000
He has the opportunity to play, and when you get that opportunity, it's up to you to make the most of it.

30
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:34,000
He obviously did last week, as he did on that one particular play right there, covering special teams as well as playing number one inside linebacker.

31
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,000
You wonder why Orlando's two and seven on the opening play. They had 10 men in the huddle, and hardly they brought in Ricky Clay.

32
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:47,000
And now he's on a wing to the right with Bledsoe, the single setback, Collier the quarterback. The handoff is to Bledsoe's off-right tackle.

33
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:55,000
He gets perhaps four yards to the 24 yard line, where it'll be second down and six yards to go. Emmanuel Weaver made the tackle for New Jersey.

34
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:01,000
And we're going with a new strong safety tonight. Don-Al Daniel is in the game at strong safety for John Preston.

35
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:08,000
John Preston, as we know, along with John Joyce is the leading tackler on this New Jersey General football team. They may miss him tonight.

36
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Bledsoe and Clayter split in the backfield. Jackie Flowers flanked to the right. And Joey Walters to the left on second down and six from the Orlando 24.

37
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Clayton backed up behind the line of scrimmage, and he is brought down by Kyle Borland and Jim Byrne.

38
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:30,000
And he was brought down by Maurice Clements as a guy that really come in there. And Borland and Byrne put finishes on it.

39
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:38,000
But it was Clements coming up straight up, making that tackle an outstanding hit by Maurice Clements playing another linebacker position.

40
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,000
So it's third down and seven, a loss of one on the play at the 23 yard line.

41
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Jeff Smith and Jerry Parrish are now the wide receivers. Flowers is in as well. So he has three wide outs. Make it four wide outs.

42
00:04:52,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Walter Smith, Flowers and Parrish on third and seven. Collier from the shotgun. Back to throw, throwing over the middle. He completes it to Curtis Bledsoe to the 31 yard line.

43
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,000
That'll be enough for the first down, the tackle made by John Miller.

44
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:12,000
That was a short pass. They had every receiver split out wide and they just came to the man over the middle. The linebackers took a good drop.

45
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:18,000
The big thing tonight is Reggie Collier. He's been the difference as far as Orlando in this football this season thus far.

46
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:25,000
They've got to contain Reggie Collier. He likes to run the ball and it looks to be that they're trying to run the football early against their opponents.

47
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:31,000
They tried it last week against Jacksonville with not much success already. They've run the ball two out of four downs against the generals.

48
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:38,000
Out of the I-formation now, the Orlando Renegades first and 10 at their own 32 yard line with a backfield split.

49
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:47,000
And off to Clant. Clant is out to the 35 yard line. Kyle Borland again in on the tackle. It will be second down and about five yards to go.

50
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Let's call it a pick up of four and make it second and six at the 36 yard line.

51
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:59,000
Bob, you mentioned how dangerous Reggie Collier can be. He throws that short pass pretty well. He doesn't have good control on the long ball.

52
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:07,000
But the thing that makes him dangerous is the fact that he can run the football if the passing lane breaks down, he can run the football and be effective.

53
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Walters flying to the left, Flowers to the right, backfield a split, second and six. Orlando at their own 36.

54
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:21,000
And off to Curtis Blitzer, stacked up behind the line of scrimmage. Back at the 34 yard line, Mike Weddington is there along with Kyle Borland and Mo Clement.

55
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Beautiful job by Borland. Filled in for the middle linebacker. Just stepped up in the hole. Nobody took him on.

56
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,000
And he had one on one with a running back that time, let's say. But the interesting thing is they're trying to run the football.

57
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:37,000
And the reasoning there has to be similar to this last week. Let's control the ball on the ground. Keep it away from the generals.

58
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Let's not give their offense, especially their running game, too much time on the field.

59
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:48,000
The generals ranked seventh in the league of 14 teams against the rush. 119.9 yards against per game.

60
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,000
And on but the fifth or sixth play from scrimmage, Orlando is forced to call a timeout.

61
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Eleven minutes, 13 seconds to go. Quarter number one, no score from Giants Stadium in the middle lands.

62
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:15,000
We'll be back on the New Jersey General's football network.

63
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:23,000
On the boardwalk in Atlantic City, first class costs no more when you go to the centerpiece.

64
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Trump Plaza Hotel Casino. A glittering world of glass, grass, and class.

65
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:49,000
And best of all, this place is right in the center of the action.

66
00:07:49,000 --> 00:08:04,000
You'll see for yourself. Trump Plaza. It's Atlantic City's centerpiece. Yes!

67
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:17,000
You're listening to New Jersey General's football in WMCA New York, brought to you in part by the Alpha Romeo Presidents Group, automobiles built for the fun-loving rich, and you, if you hurry.

68
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:24,000
Orlando third and seven from their own 35. Collier at a shotgun, throwing long down the sideline for Jackie Flowers, incomplete.

69
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,000
He nearly got his hands on it at the 21-yard line of New Jersey, but the ball falls harmlessly incomplete.

70
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,000
In on the play, defensively carrying Justin along with Gregory Johnson.

71
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:42,000
So on fourth and seven, Greg Kader, the second leading punter in the USFL, averaging nearly 43 yards per punt.

72
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:50,000
His longest of the season, 64 yards, ready to punt it away to Danny Knight, who is standing back at his own 22-yard line to our right.

73
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,000
11 minutes, 7 seconds to go, first quarter, no score. The General's about to get their first possession of the evening.

74
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:05,000
A good snap from center, and Kader with a high spiraling kick that is fielded by Knight at his own 20, cutting it to 25, and down he goes at the 25-yard line.

75
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:14,000
For the General's, they'll have so-so field possession for their first possession of the game. First and 10 to go, 10 minutes and 57 seconds remaining in the first quarter.

76
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,000
It was a 45-yard punt for Greg Kader, just a couple of yards over his hand.

77
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,000
But hold the phone, flag on the play, let's see what that's all about.

78
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Somebody was downfield, Charlie, before the ball was punt, and Fred McAllister, number 53, was downfield before the ball was punt.

79
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:40,000
It looks like Walt is going to take the ball right where it is now, here on the 26-yard line for the General's.

80
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:45,000
And with the change of possession, there's a time out on the field, 10-57 gone, first quarter.

81
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:50,000
General's and Orlando are scoreless, we're a giant stadium, and we'll be back.

82
00:09:50,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Happy birthday, Thunderbird. That's right, it's T-Bird's birthday, but you get to open the presents.

But hurry, because come May 1st, the party's over.

88
00:10:51,000 --> 00:11:00,000
The General's first-at-10 play from their own 26-yard line, a quick opener to vote Carthon out to perhaps a 28.

89
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:09,000
A pick-up of maybe two yards on the play, it'll be second down at eight, as Bernie West, the left-side linebacker, came up to make the tackle for the Renegades.

90
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Clock running, 10-15 to go, first quarter, this is the General's second play of the game.

91
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,000
Carthen and Walker in the I-formation, with Clarence Collins flanked to the right.

92
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Two tight ends in the lineup now. Handoff to Herschel running off left tackle, looking to turn the corner.

93
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Hey, here goes Herschel, down the sideline. Walker is knocked out of bounds at the 40-yard line, but way back at the line of scrimmage.

94
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,000
There is a penalty marker, however, I think it's against Orlando.

95
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,000
I think you're right, Charlie. I think they're going to get him for jumping off sides, and it's going to go against Orlando.

96
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000
And already they run the sweep on second down and nine, and he picks up a ton of yards.

97
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,000
What a football player Herschel Walker is. You've got to get Moe Carthen Clinton on that particular play,

98
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:55,000
because he was right down there leading the block for Herschel Walker, enabling him to get outside and get the yard.

99
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:02,000
It wasn't offside against the Orlando Renegades. The Generals have that first down and tend to go at the 40-yard line going in.

100
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Walker enters the game with 1,006 yards. He can tack on an additional 32.

101
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,000
That's not going to hurt.

102
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Generals first to tend to go at the Orlando 40-yard line, again the I-formation, Walker the deep back.

103
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000
And once again, flank down to the right, Clarence Collins.

104
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,000
And out to Herschel this time running right, turning the corner.

105
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:24,000
Herschel is finally brought down at about the 31-yard line. He picked up only nine that time.

106
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,000
And you've got to give credit to Walton, his entire coaching staff, and Bob knows this better than anybody.

107
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:36,000
When you have a football team that's 10 days between football games, you really have to wonder, can you get them ready and peaking at the right time.

108
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,000
Defensively, they certainly were ready, and it looks like offensively they're ready here just as well.

109
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:49,000
But I've got to tell you, Dave, walking into the locker room a couple of hours before the game time, everybody was talking about this T-neck meeting today.

110
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:57,000
They wanted to know what was what. And I've got to tell you, I was wondering whether or not their concentration had been altered by the events of the USFL over the past couple of weeks.

111
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Here's Flutie back to draw, second and one in his own 31, throwing sideline incomplete, intended to the far side line, to the 15-yard line for Clarence Collins.

112
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
But Flutie had a rush to pass, so it'll be third down and one for New Jersey at the Orlando 31-yard line.

113
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Getting back to Walt Michaels and how he prepares his team, he now is in the second half of the season. He's very conscious of bringing players along.

114
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:27,000
He knows the long haul better than anybody. And he's got these guys. He's trying to save their legs. He's been practicing on the grass field outside the stadium. I think they're ready.

115
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Generals are a 54 percent efficient team on third down. They're third and one at the Orlando 31. Carthen and Walker stack up in the I-formation.

116
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Hand up to Herschel looking to circle the end. He's got the first down. Herschel still on his feet. He finally made it out of bounds at the 11-yard line. He picked up 20 more.

117
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,000
You can't, you know, you don't appreciate him unless you're down here.

118
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Well, you're right beside him. What was it like?

119
00:13:53,000 --> 00:14:00,000
It was like a blur. But I mean, the speed is fantastic. He's really just cruising along and he's just getting great blocking up front.

120
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:11,000
We say a lot about Maurice Carthen. He's outstanding. But let's not ever forget Sam Bowers. He's the guy that creates the block to the tight inside right on the corner. And he has done an excellent job this year.

121
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:17,000
This man truly has world-class speed. You know, you forget about that as a football player. He's got great speed.

122
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:25,000
It's like a runaway refrigerator heading downhill from Mount Everest. It's first and 10 at the 11-yard line. Hand off to Herschel looking to circle left end.

123
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Barely finds a crack and gets to the 10-yard line. A pick up of one, second and nine. Herschel so far tonight, four carries, 62 yards.

124
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:43,000
When you look at this football team, the Orlando Renegades, they do not match up on their defensive line. The guys playing there are 260, 255, 250, and 255.

125
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:53,000
When you turn that around and look at the size and the strength and the finesse that this offensive line of generals has, you can anticipate Herschel having a real big night. He's already got his start.

126
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:02,000
General second down and nine at the Orlando 10. Once again, out of the eye, pitch out to Herschel running right. Looking to turn in the corner.

127
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Herschel gets inside the 10-yard line where Kelvin Atkins, the left side linebacker, came up and made the tack.

128
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:15,000
We've got to watch for this play. That time he pitched the ball back to Herschel and Flutie came opposite him and just sort of hung around.

129
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:24,000
I've got to believe we saw this play earlier in the year that that pass is in the books and we may see it even from Herschel Walker throwing back to Doug Flutie one of these times.

130
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Generals now third down and seven at the Orlando 8. They would have to get down inside the one-yard line. Speck is in the lineup.

131
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Broughton flank to the left. Collins to the right. Generals in the I-formation. Carthin and Walker third and seven from the eighth.

132
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Here's Flutie stopping, throwing, completing. But Jeff Speck short of the first down, however, inside the five to about the four.

133
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:56,000
What a move! That was a bootleg. That was a cold bootleg. He came out and the defensive end held his position. He knew he couldn't run with the football.

134
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:06,000
He pulled up and he hit his tight end coming across. It's the way he pulled up. He pulled up to it from a dead-speed stop and just threw that ball underhand off-sidearm and got the ball to Jeff Speck.

135
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:20,000
An outstanding athletic move. Really nothing more than an extra point try. The snap, the place, the kick is perfect and the Generals are on the board leading three to nothing with six minutes and 34 seconds to go in the first quarter.

136
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:35,000
You're listening to the New Jersey General's Football Network. So it will be a touchback in quarter number one. A giant stadium in the Meadowlands and we'll be back.

137
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:42,000
First and ten to go for Orlando. They're up to the 40-yard line now and on a neat move by Collier.

138
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:52,000
He completes it to the tight end Bob Nizelik into Generals territory for the first time up to the 47-yard line where it will be first and ten for Orlando.

139
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Collier is one of those guys. He's going to give a lot of encouragement. If he gets started and he starts to play well and he completes the pass, he can be dangerous all night long.

140
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:08,000
He's got to stop him right away. The last two times that he had the ball in this series, he's played very well for the quarterback position.

141
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:18,000
It may have been somewhat self-serving, but Lee Corso, the head coach of the Orlando Renegades, said that Reggie Collier is the prototype quarterback of the 80s.

142
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:32,000
Five and a half minutes to go, first quarter, Generals three to nothing, Orlando first and ten to the General, 47. Collier back to throw, going long, down the sidelines for Mickey Flowers and it is intercepted by Gregory Johnson.

143
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:43,000
Johnson returning into the 20s. And he has knocked out of bounds at the 36-yard line of the Generals, first and ten to go for Gregory Johnson, his second interception of the season.

144
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:48,000
And that was a great play. He's the free safety. They tried to hit the receiver deep down the sidelines.

145
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:57,000
He has a clear back. Justin Beat, as he threw the ball up, Johnson came from center field, as he's supposed to, came over perfectly timed and intercepted that ball.

146
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:05,000
The Generals were on their hands a little bit, but two first downs back to back. That interception is costly for the Renegades.

147
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Gregory Johnson, his second intercept of the season, and for the Generals' secondary hit is their 12th pickoff of the year.

148
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:19,000
So now the Generals, first and ten to go, at their own 37-yard line in the first quarter, they are marching from right to left.

149
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:27,000
They line up again in the I-4 Bay, and Carthen and Walker are deep. Clarence Collins flanked to the right, pitch out to Herschel running right.

150
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Walker turning the corner. Walker out over the 40-yard line, flag on the play. Walker down at the 41-yard line, however, there is a flag at the 49-yard line, away from the flag.

151
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,000
That's the back judge who threw the flag.

152
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,000
Holding against New Jersey.

153
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:52,000
That was a long way. He's got better eyes than I got. That's a long way to throw that. The back judge threw it way down by the defensive backfield, caught the Jersey offensive line in a holding situation.

154
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,000
But going back to that play, again you have to look at the compliment out there between Maurice Carthen and Herschel Walker.

155
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:06,000
Big Mo leading that time and knocked the linebacker completely flat on his back. I mean, that's a tough thing to do from your fullback position, and Mo Carthen does it very, very well.

156
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,000
So the Generals now find themselves in a first and 20 predicament back at their own 27-yard line.

157
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Walter Bratton flanked to the left and Clarence Collins to the right.

158
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,000
In the I-formation now, Carthen and Walker decide to split the backfield.

159
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Floating calling signals. Generals lead 3-0 first quarter.

160
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Once again now, Walker goes back into the deep I-formation. Hand off to Herschel. He's going to be stacked up behind the line of scrimmage.

161
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:39,000
It was David Graham, the left tackle, along with Scott Hutchinson who's stacked up Herschel for a loss of about 3 on the play.

162
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:48,000
They are going to key on Herschel Walker all night long. They've known what has been effective for the Generals in terms of winning the last ballgame, and it's been running up number 34.

163
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,000
You're going to have to look for them. You'll see them coming, glitzing linebackers and secondary people.

164
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,000
That would certainly seem like it was set up a play-action pass of some sort.

165
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:05,000
It is second down in a very long 22. Back at the 25 yard line, Carthen and Walker split in the backfield.

166
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Bratton flanked to the left, Collins to the right. Flutie back to throw. Flutie with time, throwing over the middle, and he completes it.

167
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Out to the 41 yard line where it was Clarence Collins who made the reception.

168
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:25,000
Clarence Collins split to the right side, comes down and does a deep curl, turn-in pattern, gets back to the football, makes the catch.

169
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Crucial, crucial catch against five defensive backs. They brought Mike Guest, the nickel, back into the game.

170
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,000
Flutie had good protection, stayed in the pocket, and found his man open as he curled to the football.

171
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:43,000
Generals pick up 18 on the play, so it is third and five out to the fairly respectable 42 yard line from the I-formation.

172
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Flutie back to throw. Flutie is rolling on a naked bootleg. He has got the first down.

173
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:53,000
He stepped out of bounds at the 48 yard line. He had to get to the 47.

174
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,000
That is what Doug Flutie has been doing so well the last three or four ballgames, Charlie.

175
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:03,000
He has not been trying to force his passing situation. He takes advantage of his speed whenever he has an opportunity,

176
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:09,000
and he has made several big plays just like that, getting first down and getting a couple of touchdowns by his running ability.

177
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000
He is a very fast young man when it comes to running with the football.

178
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,000
Clarence Collins now flanked out to the right. Carthaden and Walker stack up in the I-formation.

179
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Bowers and Speck are the tight ends. And off to Herschel. Give it to Herschel. See Herschel run.

180
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:29,000
Inside the 50, down to about the 48 yard line. Only a four yard pick up that time for Mr. Walker.

181
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:35,000
It will be second down and six. Ron Freeman, the middle linebacker, and Orlando's leading tackler made the play.

182
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Only a four yard pick up, but way ahead of schedule as far as the running game goes, but they came with two tight ends that time.

183
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000
Speck and Bowers. That creates a problem for the defense. That forces them to bring that outside linebacker,

184
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,000
who is accustomed to playing the split end side up on the line of scrimmage.

185
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:56,000
General second down and six at the Orlando 48. And again the I-formation, and once again Speck and Bowers on the offensive line as tight ends.

186
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:03,000
And off to Moe Carth on the up back in the I. Moe picks up maybe two yards on the play as Freeman and Graham.

187
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
Freeman, the middle linebacker, Graham, the left tackle, make the play.

188
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:16,000
Just the nature of their defensive line, having four down defensive linemen versus the usual three down defensive linemen is going to make it tougher for Maurice Codden to run the football from his full back position.

189
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:26,000
They're going to give it to him several times tonight just to keep that defense on us, but the effectiveness is going to come from Herschel Walker from the I-back position where he gets a better read of the offensive lineman's block.

190
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,000
Broughton and Collins now flank out to the left side.

191
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:36,000
Carthen and Walker in the I-formation on third down and four for the Generals at the Orlando 46.

192
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Flutie back to throw, rolling left, stops, looking to get rid of it. He does sideline incomplete. He threw it out of bounds. His intended receiver on paper at any rate was Clarence Collins.

193
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:53,000
But Flutie is doing something now over the last three or four weeks that he was unable to do the first three or four weeks, and that is throw it out of bounds and get out of trouble.

194
00:22:53,000 --> 00:23:04,000
Absolutely, absolutely. He's done that well. Remembering back to when the team would get in trouble, it was when Doug would try and force the situation, make the completion happen when there was action coverage downfield.

195
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:09,000
That time again he threw it out of bounds and that's a step of maturity as far as I'm concerned about Doug Flutie.

196
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Fourth and four for New Jersey, Rick Partridge averaging 39 yards per punt. Standing back in his own 40 yard line, the line of scrimmage is the Orlando 46.

197
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:27,000
Victor Jackson standing in his 10 yard line, two hour left. A minute 58 to go, first quarter, Generals lead 3-0.

198
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:35,000
Awaiting the snap from the long snapper Russ Mitchell and the Generals have taken too much time. I guess they were hoping that perhaps Orlando would jump the gun. They did not.

199
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
And so the delay of game penalty and so at this point really the difference between fourth and four and fourth and nine is academic.

200
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:52,000
It really doesn't make that much difference considering where the ball is placed and now it's going to be almost on the 50 yard line. He can get a 45 yard punt out if he's doing a good job of punting right now.

201
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:57,000
And it'll put the Generals in pretty good field position if they get the coverage they expect out of this punt team.

202
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Wind isn't much of a factor down there is it Bob?

203
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,000
None at all Charlie. It's a perfectly cool night and it is no wind at all.

204
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Rick Partridge now will punt it away one more time standing back in his own 35 yard line.

205
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,000
And it looked like Orlando may have jumped the gun that time but no flag.

206
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:21,000
Victor Jackson fielding the ball at the 15 yard line, cutting up the middle and he brought down at the 25 yard line.

207
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Frank Matty is in on the tackle for New Jersey. We have a break in the action with a minute and 35 seconds to go and quarter number one at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

208
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:37,000
Whereas the Generals lead the Orlando Renegades 3-0. We'll be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

209
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:45,000
What is it about Alfa Romeo that has commanded the loyalty of four generations of Europe's and now America's best families?

210
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Can it be the excitement of a car that devours a mile in less than 30 seconds?

211
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Can it be the sumptuous Italian self-indulgence that Alfa Romeo's radiates?

212
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:03,000
Can it be the warranties for Alfa including an optional six year, 60,000 mile dealer warranty?

213
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Yes it is all this and something more the rich would rather you didn't know.

214
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Alfa Romeo is a bargain. There is an Alfa for instance for the scandalously low price of $13,495 and none is higher than $20,000.

215
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:27,000
Now the aristocracy may not be happy to see you at their Alfa Romeo dealer but you walk right in.

216
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:35,000
And if anyone should ask, tell them you want one of these toys for yourself on this shopper's day off.

217
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:43,000
57, the only thing the Indians need are the guards.

218
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:50,000
The Renegades break the huddle as first and 10 to go at their own 25 yard line.

219
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,000
They line up in the I-formation with Bledsoe the deep back and they end up as Curtis Bledsoe.

220
00:25:54,000 --> 00:26:01,000
And he gets to the line of scrimmage and that is about all she wrote as Kyle Borland once again in on the play for New Jersey.

221
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,000
And they had a miscue out there from their offensive center.

222
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:12,000
He went to go fire straight ahead and he feet slipped up from underneath him and actually the running back tripped over the top of his offensive center as well as Borland getting him.

223
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Again you come back to Borland though. He's made outstanding contribution since he's been put in there in place of John Joyce.

224
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,000
He's making himself feel as if he felt like a real football player for the general's defense.

225
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,000
He killed the generals the first two years when we were visiting them in Michigan.

226
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Here's Collier back to throw and he just missed the tight end Nizalek at the 34 yard line.

227
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Danelle Daniel was in on the play defensively so it'll be third down and nine at the 26 yard line.

228
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:45,000
If you have just joined us and missed the news about the big USFL powwow today in Teaneck, New Jersey, the league reaffirmed its position.

229
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:56,000
We'll be moving to the fall of 1986. John Bassett and the Tampa Bay Bandits have opted to leave the USFL at the conclusion of this season and apparently go their own way.

230
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:02,000
But you know if it's only Tampa Bay you know that the Bandits are guaranteed a playoff spot next year.

231
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:13,000
Third and nine at the 26 Collier back to throw throwing it and completing it to Joey Walters who is grabbed upside the head by Jerry Holmes and brought down ruthlessly at the 39 yard line.

232
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:19,000
A pick up of 13 on the play. First and 10 to go for the Orlando Renegades at the 39 yard line.

233
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:25,000
Their own 39. That will likely be the last play of the first quarter with the clock running 20 seconds remaining.

234
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:34,000
They came out at five with five receivers that time. Collier stayed in the pocket, got a good rush but got decent protection and waited for Walters to come underneath the receivers.

235
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,000
They cleared out the area man for man coverage with Jerry Holmes on his back.

236
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:44,000
I misspoke. This will be the last play of the quarter. Clock running three two one and Collier is back to throw.

237
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:54,000
Throwing quickly sideline for Nisalik. He completes it and Nisalik is wrestled out of bounds at the 49 yard line of New Jersey where the first quarter has come to an end.

238
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:02,000
With the Generals leading the Orlando Renegades three to nothing at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands and will be back.

239
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:09,000
Hey fans if you haven't been out to see Doug Flutie, the record breaking Herschel Walker and the rest of the playoff Hungry Generals, here's what's coming at you next.

240
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Sunday May 12th is Mother's Day and at 2.30pm it's Star Wars USFL style with the 84 champion Baltimore Stars invading Giants Stadium with Chuck Fusina and Calvin Bryant.

241
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Don't forget to bring Mom, it's her day. On Saturday night June 1st, 7 o'clock the Generals host the Memphis Showboats and the USFL's number one passer Walter Lewis.

242
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Also two lucky couples will win round trip airfare compliments of Pan Am by coming in their best European costume from France, England, Germany or Italy.

243
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:44,000
I know I won't want to miss that. Gates open at 5.30 and concession stands open early too.

244
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:49,000
Stadium club opens for members at 4.30 so come out and enjoy dinner or a snack and see some great action.

245
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:59,000
June 1st, Saturday night at 7 the Generals and the Memphis Showboats. Advanced sales of Ticketron outlets are at the Betterlands Arena box office Monday through Saturday from 10 to 6.

246
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:10,000
Sundays from noon to 5 are called 935-3900. Day of game tickets on sale at Giants Stadium. Ticket windows three hours before game time. Come on out, the Generals want you.

247
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:21,000
Well the first quarter is in the books and the Generals have a three to nothing lead. It was a fairly efficient first quarter for Herschel Walker.

248
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Seven carries, 66 yards including his first run of the ballgame which was a nifty 32 yarder.

249
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:46,000
Orlando, only 73 yards of offense in the first quarter, 66 in the air, seven on the ground. Generals had 76 yards of rushing, 66 from Walker, 22 yards in the air courtesy of Doug Flutie.

250
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Orlando's passing game again comes back to those intermediate zone passes. The ones that not the flat pass and not the deep step are out there where the linebackers are.

251
00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Every team we've seen play against the Generals have had some success in this particular area. And again coming back to this quarterback Reggie Collier, you can't let him get going, get his head of steam underneath him.

252
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000
Get him confident because he can hurt you if he has his game on.

253
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:22,000
They particularly use their tight ends very effectively that first quarter. We might see more of it. A short, intermediate sideline cut working on Danel Daniel playing at strong safety for the injured John Preston.

254
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:38,000
So it is first and 10 to go for the Orlando Renegades with the ball of the General, 49 yard line. Hand off to Curtis Bledsoe straight ahead for maybe three yards to the 47. Pick up a, let's call it three, second down and seven yards to go.

255
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:50,000
The Generals obviously are thinking run when they line up on that first down, first down on defense because they've got their both linebackers up on the line of scrimmage on the outside linebackers and the inside linebackers playing very tight.

256
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:57,000
So what we're really looking at is almost effectively a seven man line to stop that run and they've been stopping it pretty well on first down situation.

257
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Second and eighth they call it at the 48 yard line of New Jersey with Bledsoe the single setback. Echols and Nisalick two tight ends. Hand off to Bledsoe straight ahead and Bledsoe picks up maybe two more yards to the 46 where it'll be third down and six yards to go.

258
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Very interesting call on second and long. Now they're going to come up with a third and about six yards to go. The Generals come with a fifth defensive back into the game. That's Terry Daniels.

259
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Be interesting to see how they attack it. They've come to the tight end. They've come to the wide receiver. Joey Walters coming underneath the coverage with five receivers out.

260
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:44,000
And there will be four wide outs employed by Lee Corso on this play. Walter Smith flowers and Parrish third down a long five at the 45 yard line. Collier lines up in the shotgun formation with Parrish in motion to the near side.

261
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Collier back to throw. Being rushed. Throwing over the middle completing it to Walters at the 41 yard line. We'll see where they mark the ball.

262
00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:01,000
Actually they're going to mark it all the way to the 39 yard line where it'll be first and 10 for the Renegades. Again the short time pattern as Dave mentioned.

263
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:09,000
The short time pattern where the receiver just turns back the ball is they're very hard to defend against and also with receivers like Walters they're very quick to get into the scene.

264
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:19,000
They're just controlling the football with short control passing game. Henry Odom checks into the running back position for the Renegades. He's five nine two oh five from South Carolina State.

265
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:28,000
He joins Curtis Bledsoe. They're splitting the backfield first and 10 at the 39 yard line. And now Bledsoe lines up as a deep back in the eye formation.

266
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Hand off to Odom the up back and he crawls along the ground. Odom picked up only one on the play second and nine at the 38. Collier back to throw. Stopping throwing.

267
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:49,000
It is intercepted by Danel Daniel who spins at the 40. And some more on the outside. Danel Daniel may go all the way.

268
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:59,000
Daniel is run out of bounds at the 10 yard line.

269
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:09,000
What a bad throw by Reggie Collier the quarterback. The intended receiver never even saw the football. It was thrown completely behind him. Danel Daniel takes the ball.

270
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:19,000
Starts up to his right. Saw the open area on the left hand side and got some help going downfield. Got it all the way down to the seven yard line before the Renegades finally dropped him.

271
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:26,000
But it was just plain a bad throw by Collier the quarterback. When he's good he's good and when he's bad he's not so great.

272
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:34,000
But he's bad he's off. First in goal for the generals of the eight on a 58 yard interception return by Danel Daniel.

273
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,000
That's two on the nine.

274
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:43,000
Clarence Collins flank to the right. Generals of the eye formation. Hand off to Herschel running right.

275
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:51,000
Cutting at the five. Herschel is inside the five to the three yard line. A pick up of five yards for Walker. Freeman and Jackson combine on the tackle.

276
00:33:51,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Again Sam Bauer is on the corner with Maurice Carthon blocking and that turns out to be the off tackle play. That's just a slant off tackle and Herschel got a great block in his tight end and full back.

277
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:13,000
And he's looking down at second and three. Sam Bauer is bigger than most offensive linemen. He's 257 pounds and doing a real fine job out there tonight blocking from that tight end position.

278
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:22,000
All right here are the generals now second in goal at the three again in the eye formation. Hand off to Herschel this time he's running left cutting right and he's brought down at the line of scrimmage.

279
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:29,000
Atkins and Freeman the two linebackers make the tackle. And they're blitzing the linebackers they're gambling down here. They came with 10 men.

280
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:37,000
George the cornerback was out here on the wide receiver Collins everybody else was up and blitzing. They have to see a little play action pass in here. Look for your tight end in the end zone.

281
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:45,000
They're going to do that Bob until the generals can hurt him on that blitz when they're going to blitz and the generals would go into a play action pass or have some sort of bootleg and over.

282
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:58,000
They're going to blitz Herschel Walker and try and stop him tonight. Generals now third in goal at the four yard line marching from left to right lining up in the eye formation including he is going to roll it.

283
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Looking to turn the corner at the team. He's in the team.

284
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:30,000
He was stopped in his own 10 yard line made a complete one eighty through the ball in the air. It was Sam Vow to went high into the air for the touchdown. Oh what a play by Doug Flutie. How would you like to be the defensive coordinator trying to find that one.

285
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:48,000
How would you like to be the play by playing as we're trying to describe it. Now here's Ruzak for the extra point try with partridge to hold in the step the place to kick is good. And the general's lead 10 to nothing with 10 minutes and 42 seconds to go in the first half.

286
00:35:48,000 --> 00:36:06,000
We're a giant stadium in the Meadowlands and we'll be back. Now's the time to change your motor oil to protect your engine.

290
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:20,000
It's not bad David. Hurry. You sound like you live. What. I am telling you. That's too late. We saw him get the first down here running with the football and that particular play there. Just an outstanding effort by radio play by play guys nightmare trying to describe the pirouettes that he pulls off game in and game out.

291
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:34,000
Well he did it again and powers came down with a touchdown pass Ergo the general's 10 and the run against nothing is Ruzek makes his way toward the football. It's a high end over and kick the Jerry Parish will field at his own five yard line far side of the field.

292
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Parish to the 10 and he will not even make the 20 yard line. He is muscle down at the 17 and in on the tackle was Jim Dumont or New Jersey Dumont the reserve linebacker from Rutgers. You know we talk about that they throw different words out in sports and one thing in football and Dave knows it well as the word intensity and there is an intensity about this general football team especially on their specialty teams.

293
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:10,000
That really is exciting. They come down they cover and they're hitting they're looking to get tackles and looking to make gang tackles and it's sort of filters through the whole football team when you're especially teams hit like that and play up everybody else combines it falls in line.

294
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:19,000
It always does Bobby you can tell it especially on a special team the way they start the football game and the way they continue to cover those punts and kickoff kickoff return to return.

295
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:33,000
That's the mark of an intense football team. Walt Michael certainly has this football team. The generals here tonight ready to go 10 days off. They needed to 10 days midseason break but to get them back the way they're performing now it's a mark of a good coach.

296
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:43,000
We've always said that and I've watched a lot of football teams without come back after a win like they had against Memphis and then all of a sudden a 10 day layoff come back a little bit flat.

297
00:38:43,000 --> 00:39:01,000
In this case right here they are superior to the Orlando Renegade on paper and they're certainly superior in their team play tonight. The generals over the last month really immediately following the loss in Arizona have played as fine a football as this organization has ever played and that includes their 14 and 4 season of a year ago.

298
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:06,000
The generals have really come into their own into a fine football organization.

299
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:22,000
Joey Walters flank to the left of Jackie Flowers to the right for Orlando first and 10 at their own 17 Collier rolling throwing on the run and he completes it to Henry Odom who is wrestled down at the 25 yard line by Jerry Holmes a pickup of eight on the play.

300
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:29,000
It'll be second down and two yards to go. You watch Jerry Holmes make the tackles a lot different when he makes the tackle and he hits them with his shoulder.

301
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:38,000
If you had a John Preston out there one on one he would have ripped his head right through the ball up through and tried to force the fumble Jerry Holmes outstanding coverage man.

302
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:45,000
He's not really a vicious tackler like a Johnny Preston is but he certainly does a fine job covering the receivers. They called it a game of nine.

303
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:54,000
So let's say a second and one at the 26 yard line single setback is Curtis Bledsoe to tight ends employed in this play.

304
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:59,000
And it looks like the generals may have in fact jumped the gun. It looked like Emmanuel Weaver.

305
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Emmanuel from his nose tackle position. Now you know he can move a little bit but he's got to be back across the line when the ball is snapped.

306
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:10,000
But that time he bumped helmets with the offensive center. So they're going to call it against the general.

307
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:14,000
Hold on hold on. Wait a minute. He was drawn offside Charlie. I saw him hit it.

308
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:20,000
That's what it is believe it or not. They're going to call it on the center who sort of lean back.

309
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:27,000
Mark Fisher second year man from Notre Dame Jerry Fowlton.

310
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Did he OK. He's out there arguing now we're going to have a little talking about it but Reggie you're going to lose.

311
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:39,000
Mark Fisher is none too pleased by the call. He is being restrained.

312
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:46,000
So the second down and six well at the 21 yard line when you're two and seven you frustration to sit in.

313
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:54,000
So Orlando has played better of late. They've won two of their last three having knocked off Memphis and Arizona.

314
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:59,000
Let's go and out of our in the backfield now and they are split.

315
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:05,000
Walters flank to the left and Jackie Flowers to the right second and six Orlando at their own 21 yard line.

316
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,000
And now Joey Walters jumped the gun on Jerry Hall.

317
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:13,000
And there's a reason for that Jerry Holmes not only gets up and plays in your face but he does a lot of talking to you along the way.

318
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,000
I'm sure he was talking that time and he fell for it.

319
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,000
Now they're not talking about Reagan's trip to Europe. What are they talking about.

320
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:24,000
They were talking about the negotiations in the neck. I'm sure.

321
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:31,000
Anyway the big thing for the generals tonight and we know it and we talked about it early and that is they've got to keep the pressure on themselves.

322
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,000
There's no way Orlando can beat him if they keep the pressure on themselves.

323
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:39,000
And the only way they can do that is everybody plays the game defense offense special teams.

324
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:45,000
So now from second and wanted second and 11 for Orlando all the way back to their own 16 yard line.

325
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:49,000
Let's show the single setback a wing to the right flankers to the left into the right.

326
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Oh you're back to throw and the ball is tipped into the air by Freddie Gilbert and nearly picked off by Jerry.

327
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,000
That's it. It'll be third and eleven at the 16.

328
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:07,000
That's the closest to anybody on a defensive line has gotten to Reggie Kyle the quarterback and it was big old Freddie Gilbert coming into his own.

329
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,000
You know you say this about this football team Charlie.

330
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:14,000
There's a lot of guys that are progressing as this season goes on and they're a good football team now.

331
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:19,000
But if they keep that progression going at certain positions they're going to be a much better football team by the year's end.

332
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:25,000
Third down and eleven for the renegades at their own 16 yard line for wide receivers.

333
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:29,000
Jackie Flowers Jerry Parrish Joy Walters and Jeff Smith.

334
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:37,000
And here's Collier on a little pitch out to Curtis Bledsoe and Bledsoe is run out of bounds at the 21 yard line a pick up a five.

335
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,000
It'll be fourth down and six to go.

336
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:44,000
It was Armstrong who came up from his three safety position to run Bledsoe out of bounds.

337
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:49,000
And so now for the second time tonight Greg Tater trots onto the field to put it away.

338
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:55,000
He is a second leading putter in the USFL averaging 42 and a half yards for funny.

339
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:05,000
Got off a 45 yarder in his first try in the first quarter standing back in his own 36 yard line anticipating the punt from catered his Danny Knight.

340
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:16,000
You may remember Greg cater with the Buffalo Bills good snap from center and cater with a high but short punt that night will fair catch at his own 34 yard line.

341
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:26,000
Generals with excellent field position with nine fifty two to go in the first half first and ten at their own 34 yard line.

342
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,000
General's 10 and Orlando no score.

343
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:52,000
We're a giant stadium in the middle lands and we'll be back on the New Jersey General's football network.

344
00:43:52,000 --> 00:44:00,000
The boardwalk in Atlantic City is higher than ever.

345
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:06,000
Trump Plaza Hotel Casino rising above the sea.

346
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:15,000
It stimulates like nothing you've ever experienced.

347
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:24,000
And best of all this place is right in the center of the action.

348
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,000
Come see for yourself.

349
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Trump Plaza.

350
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:40,000
It's Atlantic City centerpiece.

351
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:44,000
WMCA New York.

352
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:56,000
Generals first intended their own 34 floating back to throw a throws for Walker over the middle and completes it to the 43 yard line where Ron Freeman the middle linebacker made the tackle.

353
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,000
General's fall short of the first down by a couple of yards second down and two to go.

354
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:08,000
What they did that time was they just decided on first down to get away from that rushing linebackers and linemen against the run and they just dropped back and dumped the ball off the hush a lot of back.

355
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:14,000
So the generals now second and two lining up in the eye from their own 42 yard line.

356
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:20,000
Flutie calling signals flankers to the left and to the right and off to Herschel running right turning the corner at the 40.

357
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,000
He is run out of bounds at the 45 yard line.

358
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,000
That's good for the first down for Walker.

359
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:30,000
Victor Jackson ran Walker out of bounds simply not giving Herschel any angle.

360
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
Absolutely wasn't given Herschel any angle.

361
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:38,000
I guess he can stop as fast as he can run because he was coming full speed towards the bench and just put his brakes on him.

362
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,000
But he got the first down a big play by Herschel.

363
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:48,000
But going back to what Bob said before having that pass on the first down was a change in the and the general's direction of their strategy.

364
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,000
Walker now 10 carries 74 yards.

365
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,000
Generals first and 10 from their own 45 yard line.

366
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,000
Walker on a wing to the left floating back to throw throwing over the middle for Sam Bowers is complete.

367
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:04,000
And Bowers is brought down at the 25 yard line of Orlando by Jeff George and Sam Bowers.

368
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Sam Bowers is having an outstanding night at the running position when he's blocking from the tight end spot as well as catching the football.

369
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:18,000
He caught that touchdown at miraculous fluted touchdown that we saw up here going into the same direction.

370
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:25,000
But on this particular play he found the open area of the zone pass zone coverage and Flutie had nice touch getting the football to him.

371
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,000
And Sam brought it down for the big game.

372
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,000
Jeff Speck is power as a breather.

373
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:34,000
Generals first and 10 at the Orlando 25 lining up in the eye for me.

374
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Flutie hands to her off right tackle.

375
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,000
Herschel picked up a couple down to the 23.

376
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:44,000
It'll be second down and a Ron Freeman who is the leading tackler with a place called Pittsburgh State.

377
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,000
And he made the tack.

378
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,000
That's in Kansas Charlie.

379
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,000
Not too far from Bradley.

380
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:54,000
You know what we were watching last year.

381
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:59,000
Watching Jeff Speck come on and it started this year Jeff back come on as being sort of like a alternate tight end.

382
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,000
But we really see a difference now with Jeff Speck.

383
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,000
He's definitely the number two tight end.

384
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,000
Sam Bowers has come a long way since last year and certainly throughout this year.

385
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:13,000
We are pleased to announce the arrival of the wretched wave once again here at Giants game.

386
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,000
Second and nine for the generals of the 24 of Orlando.

387
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:17,000
Flutie back to throw.

388
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,000
Flutie being rushed.

389
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,000
Flutie being sacked at the 34 yard line.

390
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:26,000
A loss of 10 as Scott Hutchinson the right hand record his third sack of the season.

391
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:34,000
That's the second time that Doug Mackie number 73 in a left offensive tackle has got in a situation with Scott Hutchinson.

392
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,000
Hutchinson number 66 brushes the patcher very well.

393
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,000
He's pretty quick.

394
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:49,000
And when Doug Mackie's got to get fundamentally sound if he's going to protect Doug Flutie's backside the rest of this night because obviously Hutchinson seems to have found a weakness in Doug Mackie's blocking style.

395
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:54,000
Generals now in the shotgun on third and 18 back at the Orlando 33 yard line.

396
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,000
Flutie back to throw.

397
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:57,000
Flutie with time.

398
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,000
Throwing long in the end zone for Bradton incomplete.

399
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:04,000
But there is a flag on the play back at the 50 yard line.

400
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,000
And I would suspect that Doug Mackie did a fair share of holding.

401
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,000
And here comes the official's call.

402
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,000
But you know what that was Charlie.

403
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,000
Same situation I talked about where this.

404
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,000
Okay they didn't call it.

405
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:25,000
They didn't announce it over the loudspeaker but it was Doug Mackie got caught for holding that same Scott Hutchinson number 66.

406
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:32,000
Like I said before he's got Doug Mackie figured out and Mackie's got to get fundamentally sound if he's going to block and protect because he's very important.

407
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:36,000
Left offensive tackle protects the backside of a right handed quarterback with Doug Flutie.

408
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:46,000
Here's Roger Ruzek who's about to attempt a 50 yard field goal something he has not tried from this distance all year.

409
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,000
He's four of six make it five of seven on the season.

410
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:53,000
Partridge the holder hash mark to the right.

411
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,000
Mitchell the snapper.

412
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,000
The place the kick is on its way.

413
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,000
It is up.

414
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,000
It is short.

415
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,000
It was about a yard short but it was right on target.

416
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:11,000
Still the generals hold a 10 to nothing lead with six minutes and 23 seconds to go in the first half at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

417
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:20,000
We'll be back.

418
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Happy birthday Thunderbird.

419
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,000
That's right.

420
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:27,000
It's T-Birds birthday but you get to open the presents right now during your four dealers Thunderbird birthday party.

425

But hurry because come May 1st the party's over.

426
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:16,000
Charlie Steiner along with Dave Herman and Bob Cassiola from Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

427
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:22,000
Six minutes and 23 seconds ago first half a half that's been thoroughly enjoyed by the generals they lead 10 to nothing.

428
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:27,000
Herschel Walker already on the evening as 11 carries for 75 yards.

429
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,000
Just another day at the office.

430
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,000
Just another day at the office.

431
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:37,000
But even though they're ahead 10 to nothing they haven't been as consistent tonight playing against these Orlando Renegades as they were last week against Memphis.

432
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,000
They've had ups and downs but fortunately they're ahead 10 to nothing.

433
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:50,000
Renegades first and 10 for their own 33 lining up in the I formation handoff to Odom the up back and Odom to the 34 yard line where he is met head on by Emmanuel Weaver.

434
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,000
A pick up of one on the play it'll be second down and nine to go.

435
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:56,000
Great job Emmanuel Weaver he's really working over the center.

436
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:06,000
Mark Fisher and doing a nice job of controlling that middle area and what the Renegades are trying to do is on the early down maybe just get three four yards come up third and short and then go to the control passing game.

437
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:11,000
They stayed with that most of the evening this far with Tom Woodland recuperating from knee surgery.

438
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:19,000
Emmanuel Weaver has taken over the starting job at that nose position on second and nine at the 35 handoff to Curtis Bledsoe straight ahead.

439
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:27,000
He has got some yardage and he's got a first down all the way out to the 44 yard line of Orlando where Maurice Clemens and Jerry Holmes made the tackle.

440
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:33,000
Let's take a 10 second time out now for station identification on the New Jersey General's radio network.

441
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,000
57

442
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:44,000
I believe in seeing the earth and God.

443
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:53,000
First and 10 for Orlando marching from right to left and this is second quarter they trail 10 to nothing at their own 44 yard line Bledsoe the single setback.

444
00:51:53,000 --> 00:52:03,000
And off the blitz straight ahead and he gets maybe a couple of yards to the 46 second down and eight and once again a manual Weaver along with Bobby Lee a ball in on the tack.

445
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,000
You mentioned a manual Weaver taking over from Tom Woodland when he got hurt.

446
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:11,000
You know people that play like that tend to make these injuries that well very fast.

447
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,000
He's feeling much better.

448
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,000
He's doing a good job out there.

449
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:25,000
He man no weaver and he gets in the lobby he's so big and strong compared to the offensive center the center only weighs 248 pounds Mark Fisher and a man who weaver's much bigger than that and he's very active also.

450
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:37,000
So when he's on his game like he is tonight he's very effective weaver is six four and two eighty South Carolina second and eight at the forty six Orlando backfield is like higher back to throw higher with time throwing

451
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:57,000
and completing it to get like a tight end who is pumped by Jerry Holmes at the general 47 yard line about a yard short of the first down again they come to the tight end on the short quick turnout pattern from his tight end position tough to cover that because the strong safety has to give him a little room as he comes off the line of scrimmage he just breaks away from it's going to be third and short.

452
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:13,000
We would anticipate them running up inside here to try and get their first down about the best thing you can do in that situation Bob is make sure that guy receiving the football not the price but get the little bump here and there and I get it as hard as you can and making understand that every time he catches the ball it's going to be the same situation.

453
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,000
Get their attention get their attention.

454
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:19,000
Third and two at the forty seven yard line and off to Odom straight ahead.

455
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,000
He's not going to make it.

456
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:21,000
He didn't get it.

457
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:27,000
One of the glaring deficiencies of this Orlando team is they don't have a running back much over 200 pounds.

458
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:39,000
They've got clad as 206 out of 205 blood so it's 210 if that if and so now they will have a measurement the line of scrimmage is the general forty six yard line.

459
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,000
It depends really on where they marked the ball.

460
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,000
It's going to be very close.

461
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:45,000
Isn't that always the truth.

462
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,000
Right foot left right foot left foot.

463
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:53,000
And it was the left foot because they're about six inches short of the first down.

464
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,000
Well in this situation here Bob what do you do.

465
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,000
I think I was going to go for it.

466
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,000
He's won two games this year.

467
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,000
I think he's going to go for it.

468
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:02,000
He's on a roll.

469
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,000
He's on a roll.

470
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:08,000
Well I'm sure he's thinking right now he's 10 nothing in the second quarter he's staying close enough that he's still in his ball game.

471
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:09,000
So I'll tell you one thing.

472
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,000
The field position is not all that bad.

473
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,000
They don't think.

474
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:13,000
I'll tell you one thing.

475
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,000
You look at the talent on his side of the field versus talent on the other side of the field.

476
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,000
You can't really judge his coaching ability by what the one and lost record is.

477
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:23,000
Part of it is certainly but he just doesn't have a lot of good football players on the field.

478
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:27,000
You got to be you got to be very ready here for Reggie Collier himself carrying the football.

479
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:28,000
He is quick.

480
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,000
He hasn't really run with the ball tonight.

481
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:34,000
This is a perfect situation for him either to get it himself or to come out on some kind of a play action.

482
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,000
Well he needs about six inches on the play.

483
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,000
Fourth and inches at the general forty six yard line.

484
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,000
Collier I don't think he got it.

485
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,000
I don't think he got it.

486
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,000
Again they mark it back farther.

487
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,000
Lock it and weaver in on the tackle.

488
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,000
It will all depend on the mark of the ball.

489
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,000
Exactly.

490
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,000
Right foot or left foot.

491
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,000
I don't know.

492
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:56,000
The generals are optimistic.

493
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,000
That's for sure.

494
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,000
All the general's offensive unit is coming on the field.

495
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,000
They needed six inches.

496
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,000
It looks like they got a minus six.

497
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:04,000
Are they going to measure it?

498
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,000
He's going to measure it and he should.

499
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,000
Any coach should insist on a measurement here.

500
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:13,000
Just don't let them walk off the field.

501
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:17,000
Reggie Collier did not get a good start when the ball was snapped.

502
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:22,000
He almost took a step backwards before he went forward and that would be a costed situation.

503
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:27,000
If he didn't get it he could probably go back and say hey Reggie next time forward baby and get the first down.

504
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:28,000
He didn't get a good start.

505
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:29,000
His finish was no picnic either.

506
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,000
There it is.

507
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,000
He didn't get it.

508
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:32,000
The general's defense is hell.

509
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,000
How about that?

510
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,000
A glimmer of inches.

511
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,000
Who said that?

512
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:37,000
How can you lose yardage on a quarterback's sneak?

513
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,000
Well the federals have just found out.

514
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,000
We have a break in the action.

515
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:42,000
3-12 to go.

516
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,000
First half.

517
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,000
General's 10.

518
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,000
Orlando no score.

519
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:51,000
We're a giant stadium in the middlelands and we'll be back on the New Jersey General's football network.

520
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,000
Now are you concerned about the cost of heating or cooling your home?

521
00:55:54,000 --> 00:56:00,000
Now if you are, PSE&G, Public Service Electric and Gas Company of New Jersey has a solution for you.

522
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:06,000
PSE&G will send an energy specialist to check out your home from basement to attic to look for energy leaks.

523
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:11,000
You'll then receive a computerized report on exactly where your home is losing energy and what you can do about it.

524
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,000
The cost of the service is only $15.

525
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:19,000
With the report you also receive a free energy savings kit so you can begin to stop those energy leaks right now.

526
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:27,000
Call the PSE&G Energy Conservation Center toll free at 1-800-854-4444 and ask about the home energy survey.

527
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,000
And look for more information about the survey in this month's public service mailing.

528
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:39,000
Remember the number to call is 1-800-854-4444. 1-800-854-4444.

529
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:47,000
57, tell me you've been seeing me and you've gone.

530
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:52,000
General's first and 10 to go at their own 46 yard line.

531
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,000
Leading 10 to nothing with three minutes to go first half.

532
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,000
Walker and Carthens split in the backfield as Flutie is back to throw.

533
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:02,000
Flutie has time, throwing long over the middle and it is nearly intercepted.

534
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:09,000
Flutie overthrew Clarence Collins and Jeff George and Victor Jackson were both in the neighborhood to pick it off and it fell in complete.

535
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:14,000
The key there was Charlie that he did overthrow the football because the receiver had the area.

536
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:21,000
He found the open area in the zone, he found it and the ball was overthrown and instead of him tipping it down he tipped it up and almost got it intercepted.

537
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,000
So that was not a bad throw by Doug Flutie. In a sense he tried to force it, he just threw it high.

538
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:30,000
Second and 10 for New Jersey at their own 46, 2-51 to go in the half.

539
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:33,000
Lining up in the I-formation, Carthen and Walker in the backfield.

540
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:37,000
Flutie calling signals with Collins flank to the right.

541
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:41,000
Prouten to the left. Flutie rolling right, stopping, now running.

542
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:45,000
Now he's going to run it out of bounds. No, he takes a powder at the 49 yard line.

543
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,000
He went down on his own, kind of slid into second base if you will.

544
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:56,000
Kelvin Atkins put on the finishing touch. A pick up of about 5 on the play, it'll be third down and 5 at the Orlando 49.

545
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,000
And that's the versatility of the offense now. Flutie came out, that was a cold clear sprint out.

546
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:06,000
And he was coming on the corner to throw the football, got a good block again on the corner by Maurice Carthon which gave him a chance to get up field.

547
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:10,000
When he saw his receivers covered he tucked it in and got himself 4 yards.

548
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:18,000
The latest on the USFL meetings today, we have an interview with Harry Usher, the commissioner of the USFL, coming at you at halftime.

549
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:23,000
He's got a third and 5 for the generals of the Orlando 49 from the shotgun, Flutie back to throw.

550
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:28,000
Throwing over the middle, completely gets to Walker and Walker's got the first down at the 41 yard line.

551
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:32,000
And a flag on the play after the play, it looked like a face mask against Orlando.

552
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:38,000
It really did look like a face mask, I think that's what they're going to call it, but heads up to the quarterback.

553
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:43,000
Heads up to, heads up play by Doug Flutie, the quarterback, getting the ball to Herschel Walker.

554
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:48,000
Of course Herschel being in the league and playing as a receiver as much as he has this year,

555
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,000
knew exactly where to go for that first down and got it.

556
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,000
And we have a break in the action, the 2 minute warning has arrived.

557
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:59,000
Generals with the ball, first and 10 in the Orlando 35, leading 10 to nothing.

558
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:03,000
We're at Giants Stadium in the Middlelands and we'll come right back.

559
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:10,000
You get a lot when you buy Delco Performer gas cushion shock absorbers, the only shots your car will ever need.

560
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:16,000
You get shots with a leak proof gas filled cell that eliminates shock fade, plus something extra.

561
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:23,000
You get a big 1 1⁄4 inch piston with more capacity than conventional 1 inch shots with something extra.

562
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:29,000
You get a shock for all types of tires with special tuning for radials and something extra.

563
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,000
You get a limited lifetime warranty and something extra.

564
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:36,000
You get a 90 day free trial and something extra.

565
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:45,000
The something extra, when you buy 4 Delco Performers at the regular price, you get a free athletic bag with a list price of $19.95.

566
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,000

568
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:05,000
Two minutes to go here in the first half.

569
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:14,000
General's lead 10 to nothing as you're listening to us on the General's radio network over WMCA in New York and WMRE in Boston, Massachusetts.

570
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:21,000
General's 10 to nothing and Boston's native son, actually Natick's native son, Doug Flutie is having a fairly decent game today.

571
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:26,000
Yes he is. Six out of ten for 71 yards and one fantastic touchdown.

572
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:32,000
Oh I'll tell you, he did a dipsy doodle. He would have made the Isley brothers proud. He had some moves.

573
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:37,000
10 to nothing, General's two minutes to go, first and ten at the Orlando 35.

574
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:48,000
Out of the I-4 Nation, Flutie calling signals, handing to Herschel running left, turning the corner, Walker inside the 30, down to about the 27 yard line, pick up a lead on the play.

575
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,000
Harrell Randolph, the left side linebacker, made the tackle for the Renegades.

576
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:57,000
Very good call. They were anticipating with two minutes to pass, the Generals are going to go now without a huddle, they're just going to keep the ball on the ground wall.

577
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:01,000
Michael would like nothing more than to come away with some points here before the half.

578
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Nothing like a 17 point halftime cushion. General's currently lead at 10 to nothing. Walker and Carson split in the backfield, Flutie back to throw.

579
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:15,000
Flutie has time, now he's going to run with it. Flutie's going to turn the corner, 30, 25, 20 and he's going to run out of bounds at the 15 yard line.

580
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:24,000
And a first down as Flutie picks up 13 on the play. And he's been doing a lot of straight drop back passing from the normal set of the quarterback underneath the center.

581
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:29,000
And when he gets back and those ends just come in a little tight on him, he's so quick he bounces outside.

582
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:33,000
The cover has run off with the receivers and Doug Flutie is magic.

583
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:37,000
You know one of the things we haven't seen Bob is a play action pass here tonight by the Generals.

584
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:42,000
It would seem like that would be a natural play, natural pass play to call, but we haven't seen it.

585
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:47,000
He's been pretty effective and when he does see the coverage as strong as this, takes off and runs and gets some yardage.

586
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:53,000
Collins flying to the left, Broughton to the right, hand off to Walker running right. Walker inside the 10, inside the 5 yard line.

587
01:01:53,000 --> 01:02:01,000
Walker's got the first down. And he ran over Victor Jackson, the free safety. When the free safety's got to come up and make the tackle on your tail back, you've made yardage.

588
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:05,000
How many carries is that for Walker tonight? That is that 12 carries for 93 yards.

589
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:14,000
I'll go back to what I said about Herschel Walker. It's just like another day at the office we said this Charlie, when he runs the football and he seems like he gets stronger and stronger.

590
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,000
When you're trying to bring him down, it takes his toll.

591
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:21,000
Walt Michael said somebody gets hurt out there when Herschel carries the football and it's not Herschel.

592
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,000
He is clearly a punishing runner.

593
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Generals first and goal at the Orlando 4. Lining up in the eye, hand off to guess who? Walker inside.

594
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:37,000
It's loose in the end zone and it is recovered by Orlando's Harold Randolph, the 4 year linebacker from East Carolina.

595
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:42,000
That is something we almost never see. That's Walker bubbling the football, but that time it happened.

596
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:47,000
I think that's twice this season, isn't it? Twice this season and that was a very costly touchdown.

597
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:52,000
Obviously Walt was trying to get some points on the board. They were the offensive line. Everybody was working on it, including Herschel Walker.

598
01:02:52,000 --> 01:03:00,000
Something like that is going to happen when you carry the football as many times as Herschel Walker does. You're going to cough it up. I don't care who you are. You're going to cough it up once in a while.

599
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,000
It's just unfortunate that it happened right when it did.

600
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:08,000
51 seconds to go, first half. Generals will probably go into the locker room with a 10 to nothing lead.

601
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:13,000
Somewhat disappointed, but that's got to boy the spirits of the Orlando Renegades.

602
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,000
I was thinking wood boy the spirits. If there's any spirits to boy out there.

603
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:24,000
They're playing pretty spirited. They're just outmanned. There's no question about it. The Generals have a better lineup when you look at it on paper.

604
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:28,000
Man for man, team for team. The Generals are a better football team.

605
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:34,000
These are the Washington Federals from a year ago. They're getting better, but by and large the nucleus of this team was the Federals from a year ago.

606
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:39,000
First and 10 Orlando on their own 20. How you're back to throw, how you're throwing on the run.

607
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:46,000
He completes it to Nisalik, the tight end. He's running out of bounds at the 27 yard line by Kerry Justin. A pick up of seven on the play.

608
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:53,000
It'll be second down and three to go. 45 seconds remain in the half. Orlando has two timeouts at his disposal.

609
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:59,000
Generals have come with it naturally with the nickel back. They've got their defensive backs in the game. They're willing to give them that short pass again.

610
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:04,000
Nisalik got out of bounds in time with 45 seconds on the clock. There's a long way from home.

611
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:09,000
And again, while Michaels wants to keep him at 10-0 if he can, Lee Corso is calling a timeout. He wants to talk it over.

612
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:15,000
There's a timeout with 45 seconds left in the first half. Generals lead 10-0.

613
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:23,000
And Reggie Collier is trying to go over to the sideline to discuss with Lee Corso what they're going to do with their next 45 seconds.

614
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:28,000
You would think their game plan would be a little tighter than that. They had the clock stop by going out of bounds.

615
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:35,000
And to waste a timeout like they did in this situation, bring them down to one timeout left, it just, I guess, that is the Washington Fed's.

616
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:42,000
That's an ideal time to stop your team regrouping. You have 30 seconds to kill.

617
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:48,000
That should be like clockwork. You've got to know when you're in this situation, you've got to cover the week of practice.

618
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:54,000
They've had 10 days of practice. You've got to cover all situations. What are we going to do if we get in this situation?

619
01:04:54,000 --> 01:05:01,000
You don't want to waste your timeout. And Corso and Collier didn't talk to one another for about 10 seconds. That was about all.

620
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:06,000
Second and two for Orlando, all the way back in their own 28-yard line.

621
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:10,000
A late arriving crowd at Giants Stadium beginning to fill in now.

622
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:15,000
Seven o'clock starting tonight, of course. Here's Collier rolling to his left, throwing, sideline, and incomplete.

623
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:20,000
It was intended for Jerry Parrish, but he did not have both feet in bounds.

624
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:25,000
He made the catch right in front of Lee Corso, who's now running onto the field complaining to the official.

625
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:29,000
He's still on the field. Get the hook on Corso.

626
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:35,000
That man does a full day's work in a fun football game. When he's up and down that sideline, I've never seen a coach like that.

627
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,000
Well, Corso was wrong about that.

628
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:43,000
Well, the official was Ted Colano, and he was standing right on the sideline. He was right in front of the play.

629
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,000
You've got to give him credit. He was close. That's what he's getting paid for.

630
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:51,000
I tell you, he was close. We took a look at the replay. It was close, all right.

631
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:55,000
But still, that doesn't give Corso a license to do a halftime show here.

632
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,000
He's going to call for a replay.

633
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Well, we're going to get a TV replay on this. But whether or not it's sufficiently black and white for Colonel Lepore to hold the rule.

634
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,000
No, Charlie, no. I don't think so in this case.

635
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:12,000
It was close, all right. We're looking at the replay even now. And, oh, it is awfully close.

636
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,000
That's why I won't be able to.

637
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:18,000
That's why I won't be overturned by Cal Lepore because it was awfully close.

638
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:22,000
Cal Lepore wouldn't have overturned John Wilkes Booth.

639
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:24,000
Well, anyhow, we're going to be waiting for the replay now.

640
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:29,000
Down on the sidelines, the official is hooked up with the ESPN guy down there with the replay.

641
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:33,000
And we'll see exactly what's going to happen up here in the broadcast booth.

642
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,000
But I don't think it's going to be turned over.

643
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:36,000
It was awfully close.

644
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:37,000
It was.

645
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:42,000
But, you know, old man Cal, he's just going to love me dead, calling me old man Cal.

646
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,000
But Cal Lepore rarely, if ever, is overturned.

647
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:50,000
And he says, point blank, it's got to be black and white, yes or no. There are no maybes involved.

648
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:54,000
All right. Now we're going to get the meeting on the field. Two officials are getting together.

649
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:57,000
That's the wife. All right. Good. The kids. Okay.

650
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,000
They're going to college next year. Everything's fine.

651
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,000
What do you think Cal's going to do now, guys?

652
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Okay. Now the referee is going to go over and talk to him.

653
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:08,000
Well, we've got a zebra convention right here at Giant Stadium.

654
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:13,000
Ed Colano is chatting with the referee for tonight's game.

655
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:21,000
Bill Parkinson, who is in turn chatting with Cal Lepore, who is in turn chatting with somebody.

656
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:25,000
Cal's telling the official about it right now. That's awful close. What do you think?

657
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:29,000
It's a play-tale for getting.

658
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:32,000
Actually, it's a very crucial play here.

659
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Because you're going to get them in close enough with 39 seconds to go a couple of more times.

660
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,000
Well, here comes the call.

661
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:43,000
It's a complete pass. Oh, the first one.

662
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:44,000
Is that the first one, Johnny?

663
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,000
It's the third one for the year.

664
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:50,000
It is the first one that Lee Corso has finally gotten right. He was 0 for 2.

665
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:54,000
And so there is no timeout assessed against Orlando.

666
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:56,000
Well, now wait a minute. He called timeout before that, didn't he?

667
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,000
Yeah, well, he's still got one timeout remain.

668
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:04,000
But he would have been penalized a timeout if the ruling had been sustained.

669
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:11,000
Because it's been overturned, there is no timeout. And so now, suddenly, it's Orlando first and 10 at the general 45-yard line.

670
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:14,000
And suddenly, four wide receivers appear in the Orlando lineup.

671
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,000
Walter Smith, Flowers, and Parrish. Out of the shotgun, flag on the play.

672
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:21,000
I think the generals were a bit hasty.

673
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,000
Matt East. All-stars, 63 on the offense.

674
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:30,000
Oh, can we get the offense? And up here, Bob, from our position, it looks like it was Matt East who went offside.

675
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:34,000
But it's our offensive lineman pulling him offside once again.

676
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:37,000
Tom Dornbrook, number 63.

677
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:44,000
Dornbrook played at Michigan last year and had several years, four of them to be precise, with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

678
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,000
So it is first and 15 Orlando at the midfield stripe.

679
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:50,000
Collier back to throw. Throwing long for Joey Walters.

680
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:55,000
And he has got it at the 5-yard line, where it will be first and gold.

681
01:08:55,000 --> 01:09:02,000
Joey Walters with an exceptional catch, catching it in front of Danel Daniel, Ross Armstrong, and Gregory Johnson.

682
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,000
And Ross Armstrong is the rookie, and he made the mistake.

683
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,000
He's in center field, and he's got to go find the football.

684
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:11,000
He looked up too late. If he had looked up a little sooner, he could have made the play.

685
01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:16,000
A pick-up of 44 yards, and now, suddenly, first and gold.

686
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:21,000
The line of scrimmage will be the 6-yard line, with 31 seconds left.

687
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:29,000
And that TV replay really turned around the fortunes of the Renegades, with less than a half a minute to go in the first half.

688
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,000
You know what really turned around the fortunes of the Renegades?

689
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:34,000
That fumble by Herschel Walker, down in the end zone.

690
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:39,000
They bring it back to the 20-yard line. They get the TV replay, and they've got it turned around.

691
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:43,000
They make an outstanding throw, and without a pass, with a throw by Reggie Collier.

692
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:47,000
They put the ball up there, and Joey Walters comes down with the reception.

693
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:52,000
Here now, it's the other way around. Instead of the point should be on the general side of the field,

694
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:59,000
they're coming right back here, and it looks like they're in an opportunity for three points at least, and whoops, not a touchdown.

695
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:00,000
They got the ball moving.

696
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:05,000
From the should-ofs, what-ofs, and could-ofs department, the generals, had they scored, would have made it 17-0.

697
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:08,000
Now Orlando could make it 10-7.

698
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:09,000
Two tight ends.

699
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:14,000
31 seconds left in the half. First and gold for the 6. Collier back to throw.

700
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:17,000
Collier stops, throws to the end zone, and it's incomplete.

701
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:24,000
He overthrew tight end Don Nichols. Bob Nizelik was also in the area, but it is incomplete.

702
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:29,000
It'll be second down and gold from the 6 with 25 seconds left in the half.

703
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:34,000
That time they came with two tight ends and a straight-eye backfield, looking like it's an ideal running formation.

704
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:38,000
He came with a bootleg action. He tried to find his end in the corner of the end zone. He was well covered.

705
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:43,000
Now they come back with their wide receivers, Flowers and Walters in the ball game, coming to one side here.

706
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:46,000
Flowers and Walters, both blank to the right.

707
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:50,000
Odom, along with Bledsoe, split in the backfield.

708
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,000
Second and gold from the 6. Collier back to throw.

709
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:58,000
Rolling to his right, stopping, and he is running out of bounds.

710
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:03,000
He got the pass off to Jackie Flowers. There was only one fly in the oyster.

711
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,000
And that was it. Reggie Collier was out of bounds when he threw the ball.

712
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:08,000
One little mistake out there by Reggie.

713
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:11,000
And he was out of bounds. His right foot came down out of bounds.

714
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:18,000
He ran out of bounds, not five yards in front of Coach Cassio, who was very hasty in his retreat that night.

715
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:24,000
Well, I've got to tell you something. The Generals have got to put this thing, and they've got to be more consistent.

716
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:32,000
I said before in this half that they are not playing as consistent tonight as far as their offense goes as they did last week against a better football team.

717
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:40,000
And they've got to get this thing turned around here because they can't afford mistakes or letdowns and give the opportunity for the Renegades to get some points.

718
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:45,000
Collier ran out of bounds and lost six on the plays, his third and goal from the 12.

719
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:48,000
And Collier once again is back to throw from the dead center of the field.

720
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:55,000
He throws over the middle, and he completes it to the tight end. Bob Disslin, who has dropped down at the three-yard line, who took four Generals to take him down.

721
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:59,000
And there's no timeouts left. There's only six seconds. They're not going to get this thing off.

722
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,000
They can't do it, Bob.

723
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:06,000
And this is why the Orlando Renegades are the former Washington Feds. Time ran out of them.

724
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:12,000
A great job by that defense, though, keeping the ball in front of them and not permitting Nizilek to get in the end zone.

725
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:20,000
And we have come to the end of the first half, and the Generals lead by the hair of their chinny-chin-chin, 10 to nothing.

726
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:25,000
We're a giant stadium in the middle line. And we'll be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

727
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:27,000
Oh, Bentley, what's today's forecast?

728
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:29,000
A shower, sir. Rain again.

729
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:32,000
Well, actually, sir, it's Zenith Shower of Values clearance sale.

730
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:38,000
You can get great savings on Zenith color TVs. Even Zenith's superb VHS video recorders are on sale.

731
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:39,000
Fantastic, Bentley.

732
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:46,000
Oh, there's more, sir. Participating Zenith dealers are also selling exquisite push-button umbrellas for only $3.99, wild supplies last year.

733
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,000
A tremendous value for your dollar.

734
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:51,000
And while there, you can enter the Zenith Shower of Values sweepstakes.

735
01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:58,000
The top prize is a Zenith giant screen projection TV, one of five excellent Zenith prizes. No purchase necessary, of course.

736
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:03,000
Oh, splendid. Great savings on Zenith products and a great deal on a push-button umbrella.

737
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:05,000
We must hurry, sir. This offer ends May 31st.

738
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:07,000
Oh, absolutely. Good job, Bentley.

739
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:10,000
Oh, I know how saving money is such a priority with you, sir.

740
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:11,000
Bentley?

741
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:12,000
Looking after your prosperity, sir.

742
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,000
Oh, yes. Yes, of course.

743
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:18,000
Prices, availability, and promotion optional with dealer. Sweepstakes entrance must be 18 years or older.

744
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:22,000
Voidware prohibited by law. Drawing date, June 17th, 1985.

745
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:29,000
57, Beverly Benzini, the happy guy.

746
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:48,000
Welcome back to Giant Stadium here in East Rutherford, New Jersey with the generals leading the Orlando Renegades 10-0.

747
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:55,000
The generals were came awfully close to making it 17-0, and then, of course, Orlando made it awfully close and making it 10-7,

748
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:59,000
but when all was said and done, it is in fact a 10-0 halftime lead.

749
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:03,000
Herschel Walker, first half, 14 carries, 96 yards.

750
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:09,000
Doug Flutie had some really acrobatic moves in the first half, including a brilliant touchdown pass from Flutie to Sam Bowers.

751
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:12,000
Bowers had to go high into the air to snare that one down.

752
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:16,000
Sam Bowers is playing an outstanding football game out of White Plains, New York, went to Fordham.

753
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:21,000
He's doing a real fine job not only in the passing game, but in the running game too, as well as blocking.

754
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:27,000
We've got to take now while Michael's got to get back in there and look and find some way to get some consistency on his football team.

755
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:31,000
The defense, when they shut him out, they've done a real fine job.

756
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:34,000
The quarterback they're playing against tonight is not the best quarterback in the league.

757
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:39,000
He can be dangerous, and they come away with no points, but as far as the defense and the generals go, they've got to be satisfied.

758
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,000
Bob Cassie, all of your halftime evaluations.

759
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:47,000
Well, we said earlier right in the beginning of the show that it's always tough to play him a second time, and it's always tough to beat him a second time.

760
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:51,000
And although Orlando is not a very good football team, they're still playing with a lot of emotion.

761
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:57,000
The generals lead 10 to nothing. They've made some mistakes, but yet they've controlled a good part of this game, and the defense has risen to the occasion when they had to.

762
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:04,000
I think the second half, while Michael's will say, let's get the football, it's our turn to take it, let's go down and get some points and make this thing out of reach for them.

763
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:19,000
Should the generals go on and win this game tonight, their record would improve to 7-3, and that would place them in a three-way tie for first place in the USFL East, tied along with Tampa Bay and Birmingham.

764
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:31,000
Of course, a big story of the day today was the powwow in Teaneck, New Jersey, and coming up in just a couple of minutes, an interview with the commissioner of the USFL, Harry Usher, who will brief us on exactly what was said and done.

765
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:39,000
It's halftime at Giant Stadium in the Middlelands. Generals 10, Orlando no score. We'll be back in two minutes with that interview with Harry Usher.

766
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:51,000
Reach for the star, you can trust your heart. Reach for the star, to the products with the star. Reach for the star, the big, bright Texaco star.

767
01:15:51,000 --> 01:16:01,000
If your car knocks, it's probably undernourished, so put it on a diet. Texaco's super unleaded diet. It's got higher octane than regular unleaded to help knock out the knocks.

768
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:08,000
Reach for the star, the big, bright Texaco star. Reach for the star.

769
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:27,000
Want to be in command of the road for as long as you own your car? If so, see your local AC Delco dealer for a new set of Delco Performer shock absorbers.

770
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:43,000
It's halftime at Giant Stadium and joining me in the General Broadcast booth now is the commissioner of the USFL, Harry Usher, who has certainly had a busy day today. Harry, for those who are just tuning in and may not have heard the news, what happened at the celebrated meeting in Teaneck today?

771
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:57,000
Well, the owners agreed by a count of 12 to reaffirm the decision they took in August of 1984 to go to the fall of 1986 after the spring season is completed. And that was one of the basic decisions.

772
01:16:57,000 --> 01:17:11,000
The other was to put to rest all the speculation about the possibility of LA folding during this year. And basically a reaffirmation again of a vote that was taken in January that this team and no team would fold during the 1986 year.

773
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:25,000
What is the status currently of the Los Angeles Express franchise in terms of finding an owner? The status of the Birmingham Stallions, they certainly had problems unrelated necessarily to the league. San Antonio and Houston reportedly also have problems.

774
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:44,000
Well, LA, we had some buyers that were very interested in it. And about three weeks ago, a whole lot of speculation started occurring. Are we going to be in the spring or fall? I thought that had been put to rest. But then John Bassett made an announcement that he was not going to play in the USFL unless he played in the spring and that he was going to go out and form his own league.

775
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:56,000
And that activity has been going on for the past three weeks. And it's been very difficult to be able to make sure that everyone who is interested in any franchise knew exactly the facts that were going on. That's the reason I called the meeting to put this to rest.

776
01:17:56,000 --> 01:18:02,000
So as far as Los Angeles is concerned now, what is the status of a potential owner? Are you near? Are you far?

777
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:09,000
We're near. We're near. We have a couple real live ones and we're working on it. I hope that we'll be able to consummate something within 30 days.

778
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:20,000
Birmingham, Houston, and San Antonio. Birmingham is a very interesting situation because the city voted to both lend and invest money in the team provided there was matching money put up.

779
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:29,000
The league itself has agreed to not collect certain assessments from it until February 1, 1986. And that was another action item taken today.

780
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:42,000
So the Birmingham at this point I think is in good shape. San Antonio is a matter of the cash flow problems that occasion a number of matters that got public recognition. Those things have all been put to bed.

781
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:49,000
And Houston is exactly the same situation it was at the beginning of the year. League is providing a small amount of loan to carry through the end of the year.

782
01:18:49,000 --> 01:19:09,000
It may well also have a new buyer that was mentioned today. But things have stabilized and with the direction and with the clear input that this would be a fall 86 team lead with the teams that are dedicated to playing in it, I think we made a great statement today that everyone I hope will listen to.

783
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:16,000
Two teams voted against Tampa Bay and Denver is my understanding. What will happen to those two franchises?

784
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:21,000
Well John Bassett on behalf of the Tampa Bay Band has announced that he would finish the season and then withdraw from the league.

785
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:30,000
Actually Doug Spedding is looking at the situation. He does have a difficult situation in Denver in the fall because of the Broncos.

786
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:38,000
So he's got to make a decision. One of his decisions may be to see if John can put together some kind of spring league and go with it.

787
01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:49,000
Another decision would be to move his team. Another decision may be simply to withdraw. So he has to make a decision under the facts as he best can determine them.

788
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:54,000
And he hasn't actually done anything to express a negative vote in the sense of the affirmation.

789
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:57,000
Will there be a team in Chicago in the fall of 86?

790
01:19:57,000 --> 01:20:05,000
Yes there will be. There will be teams in New York or New York metropolitan area, New Jersey, Chicago and Los Angeles.

791
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:08,000
Those are the key markets and we're going to be there.

792
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:15,000
Now as far as television is concerned, that obviously is the bread and butter for any league, any more professional or amateur.

793
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:19,000
How are you going to get your games across and more importantly where are you going to get your money from?

794
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:27,000
Well our ESPN agreement, which has two more years to run after the conclusion of this year, is applicable whether it was spring or fall.

795
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:31,000
So that that forms a base floor of the television revenues.

796
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:38,000
On top of that, from the explorations that I have done, the revenues that are available are rather substantial in the fall in contrast to the spring.

797
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:46,000
So that was another factor that was discussed. It was an important factor. As you say, the revenues from television are a rather key factor.

798
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:52,000
We talked about impact on attendance. We talked about the stadium availability. We talked about a number of things.

799
01:20:52,000 --> 01:21:03,000
At the conclusion of it, we took not a straw vote but an indication of interest and it came out this way as we have been reporting.

800
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:09,000
So basically what we will see is a syndicated network of sorts in the fall of 86 at this point or what?

801
01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:14,000
Well in the most generic concept of the word syndication.

802
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:23,000
Syndication typically means going through a syndicator and having that syndicator put together through conventional methods, ways of distributing the signal.

803
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:30,000
I think that what we are going to work out is something a lot more interesting, a lot more exciting and properly a lot more profitable.

804
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:36,000
We will be announcing that in the future and it is an exciting new concept using some of the technology that is available today.

805
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:41,000
Well fair enough. Harry Usher, thank you very much for coming up here and spending half time with us here at Giant State.

806
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,000
All right, thank you Joe.

807
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:50,000
It is half time at Giant Stadium in the Middlelands with the Generals leading the Orlando Renegades 10 to nothing.

808
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:56,000
We will be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

809
01:21:56,000 --> 01:22:00,000
A quarterback needs protection.

810
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:05,000
Come on guys, with my protection out there. I have been down so many times it looks like I am.

811
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:14,000
To go the distance your engine needs protection too. Texaco Havellon Supreme motor oil is specially formulated with nine additives to protect against wear, rust and corrosion.

812
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:18,000
And a special friction fighter helps save gasoline and improve mileage.

813
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:24,000
On the field a quarterback needs good protection. Your engine needs tough protection off the field.

814
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:28,000
Protection is the name of the game with Texaco Havellon Supreme.

815
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:35,000
Want to be in command of the road for as long as you own your car? If so, see your local AC Delco dealer for a new set of Delco Performer shock absorbers.

816
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:43,000
Delco Performers are gas cushions to provide responsive handling by virtually eliminating shock lag under normal and high performance driving conditions.

817
01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:46,000
And Delco Performers come with a limited lifetime warranty.

818
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:50,000
That is why AC Delco says they are the only shocks your car will ever need.

819
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:55,000
Ask for details and for a lifetime of smooth rides get a set of gas cushion Delco Performer shocks.

820
01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:58,000
AC Delco, the smart part.

821
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:04,000
Pardon me, does bus number 32 stop here? Yes. Oh, it's a lovely umbrella and this is some shower.

822
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:09,000
Oh, you must mean Zenith's Shower of Values Clearance Sale with great savings on Zenith colored TVs.

823
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:16,000
Plus, Zenith's super quality VHS video recorders all at incredible prices. Actually, I'm very wet.

824
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:24,000
Zenith is also having a Shower of Values sweepstakes and the top prize is a giant screen projection TV, one of five super Zenith prizes.

825
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:28,000
Ma'am, I'm soaking wet. Just visit your nearest participating Zenith dealer and enter to win.

826
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:35,000
There's no purchase necessary. In fact, that's where I bought this spectacular push button umbrella for only $3.99.

827
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:41,000
It's a tremendous value. Yes, it's a super umbrella. But hurry, this special Zenith offer ends May 31st.

828
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:48,000
Ma'am, may I please share the umbrella with you? Oh my goodness, yes. Why did you ask me that in the first place?

829
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:51,000
Prices availability and promotion optional with dealer.

830
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:56,000
Sweepstakes entrance must be 18 years or older. Void where prohibited by law. Drawing date June 17th, 1985.

831
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:00,000
You're listening to New Jersey General's football in WMCA New York.

832
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:09,000
Brought to you in part by the Alpha Romeo President's Group. Automobiles built for the fun-loving rich and you if you hurry.

833
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,000
Are you concerned about the cost of heating or cooling your home?

834
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:17,000
FDR, PSE&G, Public Service Electric and Gas Company of New Jersey has a solution for you.

835
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:23,000
PSE&G will send an energy specialist to check out your home from basement to attic to look for energy leaks.

836
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:28,000
You'll then receive a computerized report on exactly where your home is losing energy and what you can do about it.

837
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:36,000
Cost of the service only $15. With the report you also receive a free energy savings kit so you can begin to stop those energy leaks right now.

838
01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:44,000
Call the PSE&G Energy Conservation Center toll free at 1-800-854-4444 and ask about your home energy survey.

839
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:52,000
And look for more information about the survey in this month's public service mailing. Remember the number to call is 1-800-854-4444.

840
01:24:52,000 --> 01:25:01,000
57, WMC, and the Ernie Gourds.

841
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:16,000
We are back at Giant Stadium in the Meadowlands and with us now is one of the owners of the Houston Gamblers, Dr. Jerry Arkovitz, a familiar name and face here in the general broadcast booth.

842
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:22,000
And Jerry Sklar who has been holding the Birmingham Stallions together with the bubble gum and Band-Aids over the past couple of weeks.

843
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:31,000
Jerry Sklar, let me ask you question number one. What with the outcome of the meeting today, how does that bode for the Birmingham Stallions in Birmingham?

844
01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:33,000
What with the search for an owner and so on?

845
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:42,000
I think it gives us a tremendous boost. You know the league did some things today that really helped our franchise and of course with the city making a million dollar investment in our franchise,

846
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:51,000
a hundred thousand dollar investment and nine hundred thousand dollar loan. We've just got a lot of debt of gratitude out to a lot of people and I think we're going to have a very viable franchise to be around for a long time.

847
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:56,000
We look forward to playing up here in the Meadowlands. I think the final game of the season against the generals.

848
01:25:56,000 --> 01:26:01,000
That is exactly right. Let's not make it too final for that championship game here at the Meadowlands.

849
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:06,000
Have you now an owner that is waiting to purchase the club as a result of today's meeting? What is that status?

850
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:15,000
No, we do not have an owner that is waiting to purchase the club. Our decision has been to go to a broad-based ownership in Birmingham with a lot of community involvement and we think that's the way to go down there.

851
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:19,000
We're getting the support. We've got the support of the city now and I think we're going to be real successful.

852
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:25,000
Does the fall present any problems with you down there for the Stallions, what with Auburn and Alabama football?

853
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:33,000
I don't think so. I think that Alabama plays three football games in Birmingham. We can have some big sports weekends, but I think it'll complement one another and we're real pleased with it.

854
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:38,000
What day of the week would ideally be the best week day of the week for you to play down there?

855
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:43,000
Ideally the best day of the week is to play Saturday night. I'm not sure that we will be able to do that, but that remains to be seen.

856
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:46,000
Jerry Sklar, thank you very much for coming up to the booth.

857
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:47,000
Thank you.

858
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:50,000
Who's who of ownership here in the USFL tonight?

859
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:58,000
Dr. Jerry Arkovitz now. What is your impression of today's meeting and how does that bode for the Gamblers who it's no secret have had some money problems down there?

860
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:06,000
I thought the vote today was a tremendous, I was very much in favor of fall football. That's traditionally where football is played.

861
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:10,000
That's where the fans want to see it. I think that's where the money is at in TV.

862
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:13,000
And the Gamblers financial files, we don't have any more.

863
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:19,000
The next 60 days we will announce a new ownership majority owner of our franchise, some people in the Fortune 100 group.

864
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:23,000
And that will eliminate our franchise for the next 400 years as far as financial problems go.

865
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:29,000
The second half kickoff has just taken place. Jeff Brockhouse kicked it to an up back.

866
01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:34,000
Sam Bowers who returned it out to the 36 yard line where the generals have it first and tend to go.

867
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:37,000
Stay with us here just a minute Jerry if you would.

868
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:44,000
We have Doug Flutie calling signals out of the eye formation. Carthen and Walker are deep. Broughton and Collins flank to the left.

869
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:50,000
First play, second half, generals really intend nothing. Hand off to Herschel off right tackle and Herschel gets nothing.

870
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:54,000
Gets back to the line of scrimmage and that's about all second and ten at the 36.

871
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:55,000
Now as far as the...

872
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,000
You never got nothing against us.

873
01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:05,000
As far as the Gamblers are concerned going against the Oilers, is that present of much of a problem for you in your community?

874
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:09,000
I look forward to that. I mean they certainly are not going against the Cowboys.

875
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:16,000
Being in Houston, again the way the Oilers have been the last several years with the most exciting team and professional football I believe, the Houston Gamblers.

876
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,000
I think we can compete with any team in the National Football League.

877
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:22,000
I've had to be in a city where there's an NFL team, Houston is the place to be.

878
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:27,000
General second and eleven from the 35, Flutie back to throw, being forced to run out of the pocket.

879
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:33,000
Rolling, running, 40 and he runs out of bounds at the 43 yard line to pick up a bait on the play.

880
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,000
It'll be third down and three yards to go. Flutie run out of bounds.

881
01:28:37,000 --> 01:28:39,000
Now back to the issues at hand.

882
01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:41,000
You have John Bassett who has left the league.

883
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:44,000
Tampa Bay was really one of the stronger franchises in the league.

884
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:47,000
What is the impact on the loss of Bassett and the Bannets?

885
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,000
Well I have a lot of respect for the aberration of John.

886
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:54,000
I'm sorry to see him leave but we need to pair our league down to the maximum of twelve teams anyway.

887
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:59,000
I see the Tampa Bay team as an alternative to going to Chicago when they start up next year.

888
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:06,000
We've got a good Nukes, a good team, good coach and I'd see John go but I wish him well.

889
01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:11,000
General's third and three at the 42. Flutie rolling right, looking to get rid of the ball.

890
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:14,000
Rolling, rolling, puts a juke on and he's going to be brought down from behind.

891
01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:17,000
No he stepped out of the clutch of the defender and he's got the first down.

892
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:21,000
All the way to the 49 yard line. First and ten New Jersey.

893
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:24,000
General's leading ten-nothing a minute and a half into the third quarter.

894
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:27,000
Your quarterback's down.

895
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:30,000
Bob, could you see on the sideline what did he down blow? What's up Flutie?

896
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:36,000
He's fine. He stumbled forward and he just made a great move to get out of bounds and get a first down.

897
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:40,000
All in all Jerry Argobit, you're obviously then pleased with the outcome of today's meeting.

898
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:43,000
Absolutely. They're thriving out at the end of two and a half years.

899
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:45,000
This league has been unprecedented in sports history.

900
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:49,000
There are six teams today and this league can play in the NFL and compete very well.

901
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:52,000
Alright, fair enough. Jerry Argobit's with us here in the booth live.

902
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:56,000
Here's Walker, first and ten at the 48. Turning the corner, flag on the play.

903
01:29:56,000 --> 01:30:00,000
Walker run out of bounds at the 35 yard line to pick up a 15.

904
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,000
Now there are two, there are three flags on the play.

905
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:06,000
Holding against New Jersey is one of the calls.

906
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:09,000
Well, I'll tell you one thing there Mr. Herman and Mr. Cassiola.

907
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:14,000
Everybody came out of this meeting breathing a sigh of relief and they're beating their breath saying,

908
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:16,000
hey, everything is just honky-dory.

909
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:18,000
Those who showed up here at the ball game.

910
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:19,000
Uh huh. Of course.

911
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:25,000
John Bassett is the one, lone guy in that old organization, the USFL, that decided he is not going to take his team.

912
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:27,000
Now Jerry made a very interesting point.

913
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:32,000
He said that, I think I heard him say that they could take that nucleus of that football team and move it to Chicago.

914
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:35,000
Doesn't John Bassett, if he leaves the league, doesn't he take his football players with him?

915
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:36,000
He would, yeah.

916
01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:41,000
I think what he meant to say was, what the delegate from Houston meant to say was that,

917
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:46,000
in fact, there would be a new franchise in Chicago so they're killing off the Tampa Bay market

918
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:50,000
and exchanging it for the number two market in the country, which is Chicago.

919
01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:52,000
Generals first and ten at their own 38.

920
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,000
Flutie back to throw, throwing long over the middle for Waldo Broughton.

921
01:30:55,000 --> 01:31:01,000
He's got it in the 30 yard line and Broughton is down at the 26 yard line of Orlando, first and ten to go.

922
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:06,000
And that's a great move by Waldo Broughton coming in from the left side of the formation as the split receiver,

923
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:11,000
breaking over the middle, getting behind Gray, the corner back to that side, in the middle, no free safety.

924
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:14,000
Doug Flutie waited for him to get open and led him beautifully.

925
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:15,000
Big gain, got out of a hole.

926
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:17,000
The General's got to get a score now.

927
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,000
They've been close too many times tonight.

928
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:25,000
A pick up of 36 yards on the play, Generals first and ten at the Orlando 26 yard line.

929
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:29,000
In the third quarter, the Generals are marching from right to left.

930
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:31,000
Maurice Carthen on a wing to the left.

931
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:37,000
Here's Walker with a pitch out running left, looking to turn the corner at the 25 yard line and down he goes at the 25.

932
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:38,000
A pick up of one.

933
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:39,000
It'll be second down and nine.

934
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:43,000
Freeman and Randolph, a couple of linebackers combined to make the tack.

935
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:46,000
On that last play though, Bob, the one that Doug Flutie threw so very well,

936
01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:50,000
the pass blocking up front was excellent on that particular situation.

937
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:59,000
And it looks like the left offensive tackle, Doug Mackie, is now doing a much better job blocking against the defensive end, number 66, Scott Hutchinson.

938
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:05,000
Hutchinson has been shut out in the last several attempts trying to get to Flutie, the quarterback, when he's throwing the football.

939
01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:07,000
That was Walker's 200th carry of the season.

940
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:12,000
Generals second and eight at the 24 yard line.

941
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:13,000
Out of the eye.

942
01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:14,000
Flutie.

943
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:21,000
Here's Flutie running right, turning the corner, 25, 20, 15, 10, cutting back and he's down at the three yard line.

944
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,000
It's been Doug Flutie night tonight along with Herschel Walker.

945
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:28,000
He really has and Doug Flutie, of course, taking that football on that rollout.

946
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:31,000
It wasn't a full leg, it was a rollout running behind.

947
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:36,000
He didn't see anybody open and he saw the bigger end running and you can hear the crowd yelling, Flutie.

948
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:37,000
That's right, no sir.

949
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,000
Flutie, Flutie.

950
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:40,000
A good job by Doug Flutie.

951
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:41,000
Outstanding athlete.

952
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:42,000
I got to tell you something.

953
01:32:42,000 --> 01:32:44,000
He's come into his own.

954
01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:47,000
It doesn't look like it's makeshift out there the way it did before.

955
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:48,000
It looks like there's more design to it.

956
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:52,000
I don't know how you can design your quarterback running and cutting back over the middle.

957
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:56,000
But obviously he found the open area and got down there almost into the end zone.

958
01:32:56,000 --> 01:33:01,000
John Jewell has checked into the lineup and I think he is a tackle eligible.

959
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:02,000
We'll have to wait and see.

960
01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:04,000
Generals first and goal for the two.

961
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,000
Hand off to Walker straight and he touched it.

962
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:11,000
For Walker, his 11th touchdown of the season and the Generals lead 16 to nothing.

963
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:14,000
With the extra point track coming up.

964
01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:19,000
Well, we thought they would go in there looking to come back out using that offense as Bob suggested.

965
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:22,000
And getting some points and they really put it together on that particular series.

966
01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:27,000
Doug Flutie, of course, being the hero, if you will, along with Herschel Walker.

967
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:32,000
But Doug Flutie threw the wrong ball and ran in pretty close to the touchdown and then it was Walker getting the points.

968
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:41,000
Ruzek, 30 of 32 in the extra point department, will try and tack on point 17, which he has successfully accomplished.

969
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:42,000
A break in the action.

970
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,000
Ten minutes, 16 seconds to go, third quarter.

971
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:46,000
Generals pitching a shutout.

972
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:48,000
17-nothing over the Renegades.

973
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:54,000
We're at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands and we'll be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

974
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:56,000
Hey, Cab.

975
01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:58,000
Bob Hope.

976
01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,000
Hi.

977
01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:02,000
We've got to put on these earmuffs to drown out the engine knocks.

978
01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:04,000
Hey, you don't need earmuffs.

979
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:05,000
You need star power.

980
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:11,000
Texaco Star Power, the higher octane and Texaco Super Unleaded that can help knock out the knocks.

981
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,000
Hey, Cab.

982
01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:14,000
Hello again, Mr. Hope.

983
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:18,000
You know the engine's so quiet now I can tell you some of my jokes.

984
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:19,000
You still have those earmuffs?

985
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:32,000
Want to be in command of the road for as long as you own your car? If so, see your local AC Delco dealer for a new set of Delco Performer shock absorbers.

986
01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:40,000
Delco Performers are gas-cushioned to provide responsive handling by virtually eliminating shock lag under normal and high-performance driving conditions.

987
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:43,000
And Delco Performers come with a limited lifetime warranty.

988
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:52,000
That's why AC Delco says they're the only shocks your car will ever need. Ask for details, and for a lifetime of smooth rides, get a set of gas-cushioned Delco Performer shocks.

989
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:55,000
AC Delco, the smart parts.

990
01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:02,000
Available at CMT 1104 Princeton Avenue in Trenton.

991
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:09,000
57, WMC, and the only goal.

992
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:14,000
Giant Stadium in the middle lands, General 17-0.

993
01:35:14,000 --> 01:35:16,000
Ruzik's kickoff field by Jerry Parrish.

994
01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:18,000
He drops the ball at the five-yard line.

995
01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:20,000
Now he picks it up, running for dear life.

996
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,000
He's going to be tackled and smeared at the seven-yard line.

997
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:30,000
John Jewell was in on the tackle along once again with Jim Dumont.

998
01:35:30,000 --> 01:35:35,000
And it goes bad. It really goes bad for the Orlando Regal Minigate.

999
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:39,000
I got to tell you, dropping that football and then he had nowhere else to run.

1000
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:44,000
And you look at that coverage coming down, the Generals really come out here in the second half knowing what they had to do.

1001
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,000
And they were bound and determined they were going to get it done.

1002
01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:49,000
They've been played a real outstanding series on offense.

1003
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:52,000
The special teams came down and covered the kick very well.

1004
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:54,000
And now we'll see how the defense performs.

1005
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:57,000
Ledsoe and Odom in the Orlando backfield.

1006
01:35:57,000 --> 01:36:02,000
Generals scoring play, seven plays, 67 yards in four minutes, 44 seconds.

1007
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,000
Walker a two-yard touchdown run.

1008
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,000
Here's Collier back to throw.

1009
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:10,000
Throwing sideline well short of the intended receiver, Joey Walters.

1010
01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:12,000
Coming out first down and throwing the football.

1011
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:19,000
You think when they're down 17-0, one of the things Reggie Collier would revert to is Reggie Collier doing the job, carrying the football himself.

1012
01:36:19,000 --> 01:36:23,000
We may see some of this if the frustration grows as far as the passing game.

1013
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,000
He may have to decide to run it himself.

1014
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:32,000
And it's going to be very important for the Generals defense, which has done the job thus far tonight, to contain Reggie Collier.

1015
01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:37,000
The Generals won the first meeting of this year in Orlando from the Renegades, 28-10.

1016
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:41,000
Now it's the Generals 17-0, 9.43 to go third quarter.

1017
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:44,000
Collier with four wide outs, back to throw.

1018
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:46,000
Collier throwing over the middle for Joey Walters.

1019
01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:55,000
He completes it to the 15-yard line, but Walters paid for his indiscretion as Danel Daniel and Ross Armstrong made the tackle for New Jersey and hit him hard.

1020
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:56,000
And that's what Dave mentioned before.

1021
01:36:56,000 --> 01:37:00,000
They're catching the football in front of those people, whether it be the tight end of the wide receiver.

1022
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,000
But they're paying for the catch.

1023
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:07,000
And sooner or later, they may start to look for those defenders and take their eye off the ball.

1024
01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:13,000
So it is third down and two yards to go for the Orlando Renegades.

1025
01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:16,000
The ball is their own 16-yard line.

1026
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:21,000
Marching from left to right are the Renegades in their white and blue-trimmed uniforms.

1027
01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:25,000
Generals 17-0, 9 minutes to go third quarter.

1028
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:26,000
Third and two.

1029
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:27,000
Collier hands the play.

1030
01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:28,000
So straight ahead.

1031
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:31,000
He is going to be short on the first down, I do believe.

1032
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,000
Bob Cassiola near the line of scrimmage.

1033
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:34,000
What does it look like?

1034
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:35,000
He's short by almost a yard.

1035
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:36,000
All right.

1036
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:37,000
So it looks like it'll be fourth down.

1037
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:42,000
In fact, Greg Kader has trotted onto the field with his 43-yard per-punt average.

1038
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:47,000
Tonight he's pretty much good on cue with two points, one of 45 yards and the other of 42.

1039
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:51,000
And let's say something about Kyle Borland who stepped in two games ago for John Joyce.

1040
01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:57,000
Kyle Borland is playing an excellent job of linebacker inside, making a big hit just as the...

1041
01:37:57,000 --> 01:37:59,000
as the running back tried to make...

1042
01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:01,000
Bledsoe tried to get to that first down.

1043
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:04,000
It was Kyle Borland who made the hit that stopped him.

1044
01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:08,000
And one of the things that's been very impressive, again, on that particular situation,

1045
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:12,000
was your big nose tackle out there, Emmanuel Weaver, instead of running around the block, Bob,

1046
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:16,000
and you know what I'm talking about, he fights through the block and keeps those guys off those linebackers,

1047
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:20,000
keeps that offensive guard off the linebackers, and lets the Kyle Borland make the play just man.

1048
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:22,000
He's a very tough guy against the run.

1049
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,000
He's a great run defensive down line.

1050
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,000
Tom Woodland's knee is feeling better and better, I'm sure.

1051
01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:32,000
On fourth and one for the 17, Cater, with a high but relatively short punt,

1052
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:37,000
fielded by Danny Knight and he is going to be smeared at his own 43 yard line.

1053
01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:44,000
But the Generals will have excellent field position with eight minutes and 15 seconds to go in the third quarter.

1054
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:47,000
It was Lupe Sanchez who made the tackle on the play.

1055
01:38:47,000 --> 01:38:53,000
So the Generals first and 10 for their own 43, 8.15 to go third quarter, New Jersey 17,

1056
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:57,000
Orlando nothing, a giant stadium in the middlelands, and we'll be right back.

1057
01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:00,000
Want to be in command of the road for as long as you own your car?

1058
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:05,000
If so, see your local ACDelco dealer for a new set of Delco Performer shock absorbers.

1059
01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:10,000
Delco Performers are gas pushing to provide responsive handling by virtually eliminating shock lag

1060
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:13,000
under normal and high performance driving conditions.

1061
01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:16,000
And Delco Performers come with a limited lifetime warranty.

1062
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:19,000
That's why ACDelco says they're the only shocks your car will ever need.

1063
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:25,000
Ask for details and for a lifetime of smooth rides get a set of gas-pushing Delco Performer shocks.

1064
01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:29,000
ACDelco, the smart part.

1065
01:39:29,000 --> 01:39:36,000
Available in Brogan, Cadillac, Olds, Route 46 East in Totoa.

1066
01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:40,000
We are back at Giant Stadium in the Middlelands.

1067
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:45,000
It was a 37 yard punt for Frank Kader and the Generals have excellent field position.

1068
01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:49,000
First and 10 at their own 44 yard line and this is the third quarter.

1069
01:39:49,000 --> 01:39:54,000
With eight minutes and ten seconds to go in the clock running, the Generals are marching from right to left.

1070
01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:58,000
With Walter Broughton flanked out to the right side, he's the only wide receiver.

1071
01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:02,000
And Herschel Walker on a wing to the left leaving Carthen the single setback.

1072
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:04,000
Generals at their own 44.

1073
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:05,000
Flutie calling six.

1074
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:07,000
Flutie hits a Carthen straight ahead.

1075
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:12,000
Carthen pulls over the 50 to the 46 yard line of the Orlando Renegades.

1076
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:17,000
That's very close to a first down where Victor Jackson had the unenviable task of taking the ball.

1077
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:20,000
Oh, did he take Mr. Carthen on?

1078
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:22,000
And I've got to tell you something, on that battle he lost.

1079
01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:24,000
Victor Jackson lost.

1080
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:26,000
Carthen just ran right over the top of him.

1081
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:30,000
You give that guy credit, give Jackson credit for having the proper technique and proper position.

1082
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:33,000
But man, he needs more size when he's going to take that big ball back on.

1083
01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:35,000
Marcus Anderson now checks into the lineup.

1084
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:39,000
He is flanked to the right and Danny Knight a flanker to the left.

1085
01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:41,000
Carthen and Walker split in the backfield.

1086
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:43,000
Now they move into the I-formation.

1087
01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:45,000
Generals first and 10 at the Orlando 46.

1088
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:47,000
And up to Herschel running right.

1089
01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:48,000
Herschel turning the corner.

1090
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:49,000
Herschel still on his feet.

1091
01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:51,000
Herschel to the 30, 25, 20.

1092
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:55,000
And he is knocked out of bounds at the 14 yard line.

1093
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:57,000
Wow, did you see that?

1094
01:40:57,000 --> 01:40:59,000
That's Buster's feet breaking away at Herschel.

1095
01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:02,000
Walker, as soon as he got about two yards past the line of scrimmage,

1096
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:04,000
he takes off like the world class spinner he is.

1097
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:06,000
And man, he really hustled that.

1098
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:07,000
That is something, I've got to tell you.

1099
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:11,000
That time the defensive backs Gray and George came up to make the play

1100
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:12,000
and all they got was shoulders.

1101
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:13,000
And that's what they're running into.

1102
01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:16,000
Herschel Walker's got such great body lean when he runs.

1103
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:19,000
And when he gets going and he levels you, you're going to tackle shoulders.

1104
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:22,000
And he ends up putting you back another four or five yards.

1105
01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:24,000
Marcus Anderson now flanked to the right.

1106
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,000
Walker on a wing to the left.

1107
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:27,000
Carthen the single setback.

1108
01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:31,000
Generals first and 10 at the Orlando 13 yard line.

1109
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:32,000
And up to Carthen.

1110
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:33,000
Looking to turn the corner left side.

1111
01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:34,000
He does.

1112
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:37,000
He is going to be brought down, however, at about the seven yard line.

1113
01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:39,000
A pickup of six on the play.

1114
01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:42,000
Second and four, Fred McAllister the middle linebacker.

1115
01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:44,000
Kelvin Atkins the outside linebacker.

1116
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:45,000
Makes the tackle for Orlando.

1117
01:41:45,000 --> 01:41:48,000
Perfect in the situation for Wal Michaels offensively.

1118
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:49,000
He's alternating now.

1119
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,000
He's giving Carthen the ball.

1120
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:54,000
He puts Herschel Walker on the flank, gives him a rest.

1121
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:56,000
Then he brings Herschel back to the single back.

1122
01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:58,000
Carthen, he's getting balanced in his offense.

1123
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:01,000
And really the offense is working to perfection.

1124
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:05,000
Generals they call it second and five at the eight yard line.

1125
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:07,000
Carthen again the single setback.

1126
01:42:07,000 --> 01:42:08,000
Walker a wing to the left.

1127
01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:10,000
Marcus Anderson flanked to the right.

1128
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:12,000
Generals lead 17 to nothing.

1129
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:14,000
Six twenty to go, third quarter.

1130
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:15,000
Hitting to Carthen.

1131
01:42:15,000 --> 01:42:17,000
Carthen inside the five.

1132
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:19,000
Carthen down to about the three yard line.

1133
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:21,000
And there's no question about it.

1134
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:23,000
Wal Michaels is sitting on a 17 point lead.

1135
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:27,000
He's driving almost into the end zone now inside the five yard line.

1136
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:30,000
And as you mentioned Bob, he's going to take an all-day tap ball.

1137
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:34,000
And it's going to be a game between Carthen, Carthon, number 33, and Walker, number 34.

1138
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:35,000
There's no sense.

1139
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:37,000
You've got the ball game under control at this point.

1140
01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:40,000
There's no sense of getting the ball to Herschel all the time.

1141
01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:42,000
It's still eight more games after this one.

1142
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:43,000
Exactly.

1143
01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:44,000
Said to play.

1144
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:47,000
And Herschel's already got 18 carries for 130 yards.

1145
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,000
You're not trying to set any record here tonight.

1146
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:53,000
You're trying to win the ball game and continue as the head coach, not the players,

1147
01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:56,000
but as the head coach looking down the road at what's up ahead of us.

1148
01:42:56,000 --> 01:43:00,000
And the general's on the play, record the first down. Carthen did.

1149
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:02,000
It's going to be first and goal from the four.

1150
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:06,000
Mo Carthon tonight, five carries, 24 yards.

1151
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:10,000
I want to tell you there's a very fine job being done on the left side of the line tonight,

1152
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:11,000
especially by Vince Strode.

1153
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:13,000
He's having an excellent night.

1154
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:14,000
He's blocking that old veteran.

1155
01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:18,000
And he's in there, Joe Erman, who's up down on the run defense.

1156
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:20,000
And Strath is getting the better of it.

1157
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:23,000
Erman played for George Allen many times.

1158
01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:25,000
Chicago, Arizona and Washington.

1159
01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:27,000
Erman playing an high play. You can figure that out now.

1160
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,000
He must be pushing 60 by now.

1161
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:31,000
Pitch out to Walker running right.

1162
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:33,000
Walker, he turned the corner.

1163
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:35,000
He's brought down at the three yard line a pickup of one.

1164
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:42,000
Bernard West grabbed the only available part of Walker's anatomy, his ankles, and brought him down.

1165
01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:43,000
And that's where you got to tackle him.

1166
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:44,000
And West made a big play.

1167
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:46,000
West is not the biggest of linebackers.

1168
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:49,000
He came in behind his blockers and waited for that hole to open up.

1169
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:52,000
And he caught Herschel right around the ankles and brought him down for no game.

1170
01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:56,000
I can't believe Joe Erman played against Dave Herman.

1171
01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:57,000
Well, believe it, because he did.

1172
01:43:57,000 --> 01:44:00,000
He had another tackle playing down there with a Baltimore Colts.

1173
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:01,000
His name was Mike something.

1174
01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:03,000
Very quick, very quick guy.

1175
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:07,000
But Joe Erman played the same man as he played down, anchoring the line against the run.

1176
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:09,000
Second and goal at the four yard line.

1177
01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:11,000
Speck in motion to the near side.

1178
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:14,000
Hand off to Carthen, who pulls his way in for the touchdown.

1179
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:17,000
Forrest Carthen, his fourth touchdown of the season.

1180
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:20,000
And the general now leads what he created of it.

1181
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:22,000
Exactly where you called it, Bob.

1182
01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:24,000
You said that Vince Straub was having a good game.

1183
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:29,000
Number 66, the left offensive guard playing against Joe Erman, whoever comes in there.

1184
01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:31,000
And he ran it right over the top of Big Vince.

1185
01:44:31,000 --> 01:44:33,000
He pushed him into the end zone.

1186
01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:37,000
And of course, Maurice Carthen carried it up over the top and got the six points.

1187
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:41,000
And now Roger Ruzek is going to ask for overtime, man.

1188
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:45,000
He's been busy tonight for the extra point try.

1189
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:46,000
Paratree is the holder.

1190
01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:48,000
Russ Mitchell is the long snapper.

1191
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:50,000
The place to kick is perfect.

1192
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:57,000
And the generals lead 24 to nothing with four minutes 52 seconds to go in the third quarter.

1193
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:03,000
From Giant Steve in the Meadowlands, where we'll return on the New Jersey General's football network.

1194
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:07,000
Hey, fans, if you haven't been out to see Doug Flutie, the record-breaking Herschel Walker,

1195
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:10,000
and the rest of the playoff Hungry Generals, now here's what's coming up next.

1196
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,000
Sunday, May 12th is Mother's Day at 2.30 p.m.

1197
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:15,000
Star Wars, USFL style.

1198
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:20,000
The 84 champion Baltimore stars invading Giant Stadium with Chuck Fusina and Calvin Bryant.

1199
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:22,000
Don't forget to bring Mom.

1200
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:26,000
Saturday night, June 1st, 7 o'clock, the generals host the Memphis Showboats.

1201
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:29,000
And the USFL's number one passer, Walter Lewis.

1202
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:35,000
Now also, two lucky couples will win round-trip airfare, compliments of Pan Am,

1203
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:42,000
by coming in their best European costume from France, England, Germany, or Italy.

1204
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:46,000
Yep, gates open at 5.30, concession stands open early, too.

1205
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:48,000
The Stadium Club opens for members at 4.30.

1206
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:51,000
So come on out, enjoy dinner or a snack, and see some great action.

1207
01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:54,000
June 1st, Saturday night at 7, generals in Memphis.

1208
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:58,000
Advance sales of Ticketron outlets are at the Meadowlands Arena box office,

1209
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:03,000
Monday through Saturday, 10 to 6, Sundays from noon to 5, or call 935-3900.

1210
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:06,000
They have game tickets on sale at Giant Stadium.

1211
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,000
Ticket windows three hours before game time.

1212
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:10,000
Come on out, the generals want you.

1213
01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:18,000
57, early busy, ain't the end of the line.

1214
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:26,000
Generals 24, Orlando no score, 4 minutes 52 seconds to go, third quarter.

1215
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:30,000
Roger Ruzek with the ball teed up at the 35 yard line to our right.

1216
01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:35,000
Jerry Parrish standing back at his five yard line to our left, awaiting the kickoff.

1217
01:46:35,000 --> 01:46:42,000
It has been all New Jersey, and in the third quarter where the generals this season at any rate have been historically horrid,

1218
01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:47,000
they have scored 14 unanswered points against Orlando.

1219
01:46:47,000 --> 01:46:49,000
That's right, this is the third quarter, isn't it?

1220
01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:51,000
And this has been their first quarter, right?

1221
01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:52,000
Not tonight.

1222
01:46:52,000 --> 01:46:53,000
Good job.

1223
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:58,000
Ruzek with the kickoff high end over end, and Parrish feels it at the five yard line,

1224
01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:02,000
looking to turn the corner at the 10, and he can't, he is tossed out of bounds.

1225
01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:07,000
Ruthlessly, I might add, and Bill Parkinson, the referee, happens to agree,

1226
01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:11,000
and that will be a 15 yard penalty for unnecessary roughness.

1227
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:16,000
And they're going to call it, Danelle Daniels, Danelle Daniels, I got to tell you,

1228
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:21,000
that was a questionable call, but the referee, the officials here want to keep the game under hand,

1229
01:47:21,000 --> 01:47:26,000
so they're going to call this particular play against the generals, unnecessary roughness,

1230
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:31,000
throwing the ball carrier out of bounds, gives them a little better field position, I might add.

1231
01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:35,000
A lot better field position, now they got the ball in the 27 yard line instead of the fifth,

1232
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:39,000
well what would that be, 15 yards from there, it'd be about the 12 yard line.

1233
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,000
Math major at Michigan State.

1234
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:43,000
That's pretty good at that too.

1235
01:47:43,000 --> 01:47:47,000
That's why you're the big executive that you are these days.

1236
01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:50,000
Clark running four and a half to go third quarter.

1237
01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:54,000
Collier back to throw, he's rolling now, and he's throwing, and he completes it to Isolick,

1238
01:47:54,000 --> 01:47:59,000
after the 45 yard line of New Jersey, who flat out beat Bobby Leopold on the play.

1239
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:03,000
That's just the tight end breaking to the sideline, it's a very tough pattern on a first down play,

1240
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:07,000
because the strong safety Daniels got to cover him, he gave a little room and he broke it out behind him,

1241
01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:11,000
and he got the pass off. The generals will give him that, they'll keep the play in front of them,

1242
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:15,000
what they don't want to do now leading 24 to nothing, is to give them the long quick touchdown.

1243
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:21,000
General's last scoring drive, 6 play 56 yards, all rushing on that, I might add.

1244
01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:27,000
First and 10 for Orlando, their own 45 yard line trailing by 24 points.

1245
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:32,000
Their backfield is split, Collier rolling right, now he's going to run with it,

1246
01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:36,000
and he's going to step out of bounds with the midfield stripe, he picked up 5 on the play,

1247
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:39,000
it'll be second and 5, Pope Clemens to Chief DiMattebaro.

1248
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:42,000
And that was the situation there, Collier would have thrown the football downfield,

1249
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:48,000
but we've seen consistently throughout this entire season, the deep backs of the general playing very well,

1250
01:48:48,000 --> 01:48:52,000
he did not have that intermediate target, the intermediate receiver, so he ran the football instead,

1251
01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:56,000
and only got himself 5 yards. Now that's another situation that generals can well afford now,

1252
01:48:56,000 --> 01:49:00,000
but again, like Bob said, they don't want to give up the quick touchdown,

1253
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:03,000
but a thing here Bob, we've never seen a general shut anybody out this year,

1254
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:08,000
that would be a big mark for them, they can shut this team down completely and not allow any points.

1255
01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:12,000
Well the generals held Portland to 7. That's not a shutout.

1256
01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:17,000
Nope, that was a fourth quarter touchdown if you recall that the Portland club put on the board.

1257
01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Here's Collier now, second and 5, rolling and throwing and completing it,

1258
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:26,000
to Henry Odom out of the backfield to the 44 yard line of New Jersey, and that'll be good.

1259
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:30,000
For the 11th first down for Orlando, the generals have but 12,

1260
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:35,000
however the generals had 24 points, Orlando still looking for their first.

1261
01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:38,000
It's not a matter of how many first downs you get, it's a matter of when you get them,

1262
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:42,000
I mean the generals of course have been much more efficient, not totally,

1263
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:45,000
but they've been times when they've got the football, they've looked very very well,

1264
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:48,000
driving the length of the field almost and getting the points they've got.

1265
01:49:48,000 --> 01:49:53,000
38,084 here at Giants Stadium, first Monday night game of the season,

1266
01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:55,000
the generals lead it 24 to nothing.

1267
01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:58,000
Collier with a single setback and flankers to the left and to the right,

1268
01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:03,000
first and 10 at the New Jersey 44, and Collier in rush by Jim Byrne,

1269
01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:06,000
lucky to get the pass away to Nisalick who could not make the catch,

1270
01:50:06,000 --> 01:50:08,000
it'll be third down and 10 to go.

1271
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:11,000
The first time tonight that the generals got to Reggie Collier,

1272
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:15,000
and he had to get the ball off as you described it very quickly, but that was an excellent one out,

1273
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:17,000
one on rush by Jim Byrne.

1274
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:21,000
I got to tell you Bob though, if Collier was right, all five linemen were wrong,

1275
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:23,000
and if he was wrong, all five linemen were right,

1276
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:26,000
he pulled out behind the center much sooner than the rest of the offensive linemen,

1277
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:30,000
and Byrne just went by his blocking tackle and got there right away.

1278
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:34,000
That was a miscue out there, and the only thing to save it from going offside was the center,

1279
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:37,000
feeling that Collier was going to pull away, snap the ball to him,

1280
01:50:37,000 --> 01:50:39,000
everybody was in to keep him from going offside.

1281
01:50:39,000 --> 01:50:43,000
Wilford Morgan along with Joey Walters flank to the right,

1282
01:50:43,000 --> 01:50:48,000
Smith flank to the left on a draw play to Curtis Bledsoe,

1283
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:52,000
Bledsoe versus way inside the 40 down to the 38 yard line,

1284
01:50:52,000 --> 01:50:57,000
a pick up of six on the play, making a third and four situation for the Orlando Renegades.

1285
01:50:57,000 --> 01:51:01,000
Matias made the tackle, Matias comes in on the passing downs for Big Mr. Weaver

1286
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:03,000
because he's a little bit quicker and he gives him more of a pass rush.

1287
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:09,000
That time he made a good play coming off the block thinking it was passed to make the tackle on the draw play.

1288
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:15,000
They call it third and five, and so we will too, at the 39 yard line, Bledsoe the single setback,

1289
01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:20,000
four wide outs, Wilford Morgan in motion to the near side, Collier back to throw,

1290
01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:25,000
Collier being rushed, throwing behind the back of Jeff Smith at the 35 yard line,

1291
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:30,000
and so fourth and five setting up what we assume to be a punting situation.

1292
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:33,000
Well I don't know, he's moving the people in there, but I don't know why,

1293
01:51:33,000 --> 01:51:37,000
when you're down like you are 24 to nothing, why you'd want to bother punting the football,

1294
01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:42,000
and you've got to keep in mind here that this is the first series that the Renegades have had to football,

1295
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:46,000
and they've burned it off a lot of times, there's only two minutes and 51 seconds left in the third quarter,

1296
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:48,000
and they are still 40 yards away from a score.

1297
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:50,000
They did a great job of killing the clock.

1298
01:51:50,000 --> 01:51:51,000
Yes they did.

1299
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:55,000
2.51 left to go third quarter, Generals 24-7.

1300
01:51:55,000 --> 01:52:01,000
Kader standing back at his own 44 yard line, Danny White, Danny Knight awaiting the punt from Kader,

1301
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:04,000
who is going to look to deposit it in the coffin corner,

1302
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:09,000
and instead he plops it into the end zone for a touchback the Generals will take over,

1303
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:12,000
first and 10 to go from their own 20 yard line,

1304
01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:17,000
with two minutes and 44 seconds left in the third quarter, New Jersey 24, Orlando nothing,

1305
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:20,000
for a giant stadium in the Metalliance, and we'll be right back.

1306
01:52:20,000 --> 01:52:24,000
You get a lot when you buy Delco Performer gas cushion shock absorbers,

1307
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:27,000
the only shocks your car will ever need.

1308
01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:33,000
You get shocks with a leak-proof gas-filled cell that eliminates shock fade, plus something extra.

1309
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:38,000
You get a big one and a quarter inch piston with more capacity than conventional one inch shocks,

1310
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:40,000
with something extra.

1311
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:46,000
You get a shock for all types of tires, with special tuning for radials, and something extra.

1312
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:49,000
You get a limited lifetime warranty, and something extra.

1313
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:53,000
You get a 90 day free trial, and something extra.

1314
01:52:53,000 --> 01:52:55,000
The something extra.

1315
01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:58,000
When you buy four Delco Performers at the regular price,

1316
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:02,000
you get a free athletic bag with a list price of $19.95.

1320
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:29,000
Generals 24, Orlando no score, 2.44 to go in quarter number three,

1321
01:53:29,000 --> 01:53:33,000
in a game that actually isn't as close as the scoreboard indicates.

1322
01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:37,000
Actually it could well have been 31 to nothing or more,

1323
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:42,000
as the Generals fumbled away a touchdown opportunity late in the first half.

1324
01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:44,000
So now the Generals first and 10 for their own 20.

1325
01:53:44,000 --> 01:53:48,000
Walker the single setback, Herschel with 130 yards already.

1326
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:52,000
Here's a naked bootleg for Flutie, and Flutie is out to the 30 yard line,

1327
01:53:52,000 --> 01:53:54,000
and it's good for the first down, 10 yards.

1328
01:53:54,000 --> 01:53:58,000
Very surprised though, I think that that is not exactly what 12 Michaels wants.

1329
01:53:58,000 --> 01:54:02,000
Doug Flutie tonight has taken upon himself when he bootlegs to run with the football

1330
01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:04,000
and stay in bounds a little bit longer than Walt would like.

1331
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:08,000
That time he took a chance, he got a hit from West the linebacker, got good yardage,

1332
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:12,000
but I think he's got to realize he's got to slide and get out of bounds.

1333
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:16,000
Well, maybe he's got seven guys in the line to scrimmage, all four defensive linemen, all linebackers.

1334
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:20,000
Figured if he got to that point and broke that plane, he might get some yards.

1335
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:22,000
He did get some yards, but that's a tough way of getting for a quarterback.

1336
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:24,000
Flutie seven carries, 68 yards tonight.

1337
01:54:24,000 --> 01:54:30,000
Generals first and 10 at their own 30 yard line, hand off to Carthage off left end,

1338
01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:35,000
and he picks up about three yards on the play, and the tackle is made by Harold Randolph,

1339
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:40,000
the left side linebacker, presenting the Generals with a second and seven situation at their own 33.

1340
01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:42,000
Carthage is really a fullback.

1341
01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:45,000
You know, he doesn't have the speed, of course, that a Herschel Walker's got,

1342
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,000
but he's a durable kid, a durable guy.

1343
01:54:47,000 --> 01:54:49,000
He's a guy you can count on, he's not going to fumble the football.

1344
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:51,000
Herschel doesn't fumble the football.

1345
01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:54,000
Given the situation, he's only fumbled twice in all, in this whole season.

1346
01:54:54,000 --> 01:54:58,000
There's many times he's carried, but that walk, I mean, that mole carter is really a good,

1347
01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:00,000
good fullback, complimenting Herschel Walker.

1348
01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:03,000
Seven carries, 29 yards for current.

1349
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:06,000
Generals second and eight from the 32, Flutie back to throw, throwing on the run,

1350
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:09,000
and throwing it in front of Sam Bowers.

1351
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:12,000
It bounced in front of Bowers by about five yards.

1352
01:55:12,000 --> 01:55:15,000
Bowers coming from the left side, coming down from the right side, running upfield

1353
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:18,000
and then breaking it about 18 yards from the sideline.

1354
01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:21,000
It was a little too deep and Flutie threw the ball going towards the sideline.

1355
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:22,000
Should have got upfield a little more.

1356
01:55:22,000 --> 01:55:24,000
He didn't have enough on it and it fell short.

1357
01:55:24,000 --> 01:55:25,000
Well, it fell short.

1358
01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:28,000
There was a lot of defenders out there, and probably it's a good thing it did fall short.

1359
01:55:28,000 --> 01:55:32,000
That's one of the first times we've seen in the last two or three ball games.

1360
01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:35,000
Doug Flutie trying to force the action, trying to force the ball in there

1361
01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:38,000
when the coverage was pretty good for the opposition.

1362
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:42,000
Carthen takes a powder, and Clarence Harmon checks into the lineup for the first time tonight.

1363
01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:45,000
Marcus Anderson and Danny Knight are the wide outs.

1364
01:55:45,000 --> 01:55:49,000
Charles Sturdy from the 32, and Flutie is back to throw.

1365
01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:51,000
Generals, I believe, jumped the gun.

1366
01:55:51,000 --> 01:55:55,000
Flutie throwing in and out of the hands of Herschel Walker at the 37 yard line,

1367
01:55:55,000 --> 01:56:01,000
and Flutie got patted pretty good after the pass was off.

1368
01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:04,000
The defensive end, Kellan, came in and made the play.

1369
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:05,000
Sam Bowers jumped offside.

1370
01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:08,000
And I think they're going to call on number 64, Wayne Harris, also.

1371
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:14,000
So they had a miscue out there as did the Renegades when they had the football.

1372
01:56:14,000 --> 01:56:16,000
Apparently declined when they had the football.

1373
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:19,000
There was a miscue out there between the center and his offensive line

1374
01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:20,000
because two guys were offside.

1375
01:56:20,000 --> 01:56:23,000
Sam Bowers with one arm, and Wayne Harris with a right offensive guard move

1376
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:25,000
before the snap himself.

1377
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:29,000
Here's Rick Partridge, who is averaging 39 yards per punt this season.

1378
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:32,000
One punt tonight for 36 yards.

1379
01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:36,000
And Victor Jackson is standing back in his own 25 yard line.

1380
01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:39,000
Clock running 55 seconds ago in the third quarter.

1381
01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:45,000
Generals with a cushy 24 to nothing lead.

1382
01:56:45,000 --> 01:56:49,000
Awaiting the snap from center is Partridge.

1383
01:56:49,000 --> 01:56:52,000
Big rush, but he's able to get the kick away.

1384
01:56:52,000 --> 01:56:55,000
And Jackson feels it at the 30.

1385
01:56:55,000 --> 01:57:00,000
Cuts it to 35 yard line, and he pummelled the ball out of bounds at the 40 yard line

1386
01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:03,000
where Orlando will take over first and 10 at their own 40

1387
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:06,000
with 33 seconds to go in quarter number three.

1388
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:10,000
Generals lead 24 to nothing at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

1389
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:13,000
We'll be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

1390
01:57:13,000 --> 01:57:37,000
MUSIC

1391
01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:48,000
Rising above the sea stimulates like nothing you've ever experienced.

1392
01:57:48,000 --> 01:57:57,000
And best of all, this place is right in the center of the action.

1393
01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:03,000
Come see for yourself, Trump Plaza.

1394
01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:08,000
It's Atlantic City's centerpiece. Yeah!

1395
01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:22,000
MUSIC

1396
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:27,000
Donald Trump will be joining us in the Generals broadcast booth a little bit later on tonight.

1397
01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:31,000
There are 33 seconds left in the third quarter.

1398
01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:33,000
Generals lead 24 to nothing.

1399
01:58:33,000 --> 01:58:38,000
Orlando with the ball, first and 10 at their own 40 yard line.

1400
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:42,000
Backfield is split.

1401
01:58:42,000 --> 01:58:49,000
Collier back to throw, throwing to Nisalick the tight end at the 44 yard line of Orlando.

1402
01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:51,000
Pick up a four on the play.

1403
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:54,000
It'll be second down and six to go.

1404
01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:58,000
Right here is where Reggie Collier has got to get that ball downfield,

1405
01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:02,000
but he doesn't have the confidence nor can he find the people open.

1406
01:59:02,000 --> 01:59:05,000
Again, it's a tribute to the Generals deep backfield.

1407
01:59:05,000 --> 01:59:08,000
They've done very well and tonight they're missing their strong safety.

1408
01:59:08,000 --> 01:59:13,000
John Preston and he's been amply substituted for, and the Generals continue to play strong defense.

1409
01:59:13,000 --> 01:59:18,000
Well, the gutters just sounded to end quarter number three.

1410
01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:25,000
And the Generals still lead 24 to nothing here at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands and we'll be back.

1411
01:59:25,000 --> 01:59:30,000
Organize a group from your church, synagogue, fraternal group or club and come see a Generals home game.

1412
01:59:30,000 --> 01:59:35,000
See Doug Flutie, record-breaking Herschel Walker and all the playoff hungry Generals in person at Giants Stadium.

1413
01:59:35,000 --> 01:59:41,000
Sunday, May 12, Mother's Day at 2.30, Star Wars against the 84 champion Baltimore Stars.

1414
01:59:41,000 --> 01:59:45,000
Saturday night, June 1st at 7 o'clock, the Generals host the Memphis Showboats

1415
01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:48,000
with the USFL's number one passer, Walter Lewis.

1416
01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:53,000
For group reservations call Tom Medeiros at 1-800-KICKOFF.

1417
01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:56,000
Reach for the star, do you trust your car?

1418
01:59:56,000 --> 02:00:00,000
Reach for the star, hear the products with the star.

1419
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:05,000
Reach for the star, the big, bright Texaco star.

1420
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:09,000
If your car knocks, it's probably undernourished, so put it on a diet.

1421
02:00:09,000 --> 02:00:15,000
Texaco's super unleaded diet. It's got higher octane than regular unleaded to help knock out the knocks.

1422
02:00:15,000 --> 02:00:20,000
Reach for the star, the big, bright Texaco star.

1423
02:00:20,000 --> 02:00:23,000
Reach for the star, the big, bright Texaco star.

1424
02:00:23,000 --> 02:00:33,000
Welcome back to quarter number four in a game that the Generals have had in control from the outset.

1425
02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:38,000
It is 24 for New Jersey, NADA for the Orlando Renegades.

1426
02:00:38,000 --> 02:00:43,000
They really haven't shown very much and their record coming into the game was two and seven.

1427
02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:47,000
All things being equal in about a half hour, they'll be two and eight.

1428
02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:53,000
Charlie, the Renegades have not shown much tonight, but in the last month of the season they've shown more offense against other teams.

1429
02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:57,000
Teams like the Jacksonville Bulls who beat them last week, but they moved the ball against them.

1430
02:00:57,000 --> 02:01:01,000
Those are the kind of things that make this General's effort tonight and over the last month so important

1431
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:05,000
because once they get against teams that have been playing comparable opponents,

1432
02:01:05,000 --> 02:01:09,000
you get a good line on how much the Generals have improved this year.

1433
02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:13,000
Generals really have shown a steady improvement over the last month.

1434
02:01:13,000 --> 02:01:22,000
And next Sunday we are in Jacksonville where they are expecting fairly close to a sellout in Jacksonville.

1435
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:26,000
They are expecting somewhere between 70 and 80,000 for this game.

1436
02:01:26,000 --> 02:01:33,000
And of course when we were in Jacksonville a year ago, 73,000 to this date, the largest crowd in the history of the USFL.

1437
02:01:33,000 --> 02:01:37,000
Second and six for the Renegades at their own 44 yard line.

1438
02:01:37,000 --> 02:01:42,000
First play, fourth quarter, Kier back to throw, Kier throwing, sideline for Jackie Flowers.

1439
02:01:42,000 --> 02:01:45,000
They've got to go deep because they're trailing 24-0.

1440
02:01:45,000 --> 02:01:49,000
They're in the fourth period. They've got to get some points if they want to get back in this ballgame.

1441
02:01:49,000 --> 02:01:54,000
Oh, we saw Donald Disney, the owner of the Orlando Renegades at halftime.

1442
02:01:54,000 --> 02:02:00,000
Not terribly pleased about the way his team has been playing, but happy like all of the other owners, save one,

1443
02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:03,000
about the outcome of the USFL meetings today.

1444
02:02:03,000 --> 02:02:10,000
Pass to Joey Walters is incomplete, but there is a flag on the play at the 49 yard line of New Jersey.

1445
02:02:10,000 --> 02:02:13,000
And it looks like Jerry Holmes has been assessed with holding.

1446
02:02:13,000 --> 02:02:19,000
Yeah, Jerry Holmes of course being completely on the other side of the field from where the ball was thrown,

1447
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:22,000
Kaya threw it over to his right on the left side.

1448
02:02:22,000 --> 02:02:27,000
And he's holding and that is an automatic first down.

1449
02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:33,000
You know how he plays the deep play. He plays it like he used to in the old AFL where they had that bump and run protection.

1450
02:02:33,000 --> 02:02:36,000
Oakland Raiders played it so very well. They put the...

1451
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:43,000
In fact, Oakland still does it, the Los Angeles Raiders now put that man right on that receiver and let him foul him foot step for step.

1452
02:02:43,000 --> 02:02:45,000
That's what Jerry Holmes was playing like over here.

1453
02:02:45,000 --> 02:02:50,000
Got caught for holding a good 40 yards away from where the ball ended up.

1454
02:02:50,000 --> 02:02:55,000
Flowers, Walters, Smith and Morgan, four wide outs for Orlando.

1455
02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:59,000
First and 10, they're on 49 yard line, 30 seconds into the fourth quarter.

1456
02:02:59,000 --> 02:03:02,000
Kaya back to throw. Kaya is popped as he gets right to the ball.

1457
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:07,000
And it is nearly intercepted by Jerry Holmes, but the pass was out of bounds.

1458
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:12,000
See, this is the problem with Jerry, with Reggie Kaya. Reggie Kaya is a great athlete, but he is not a great passer.

1459
02:03:12,000 --> 02:03:16,000
He does not have the touch that's necessary to bring a club back like this.

1460
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:19,000
And that time he had a receiver open, but he just couldn't get him the football.

1461
02:03:19,000 --> 02:03:22,000
He was also being rushed pretty good by Bobby Leopold.

1462
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:24,000
And Frank Matias.

1463
02:03:24,000 --> 02:03:26,000
Matias was all over Kaya as well.

1464
02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:31,000
If you're Jerry Goldstein, what do you think? It's 24 to nothing fourth quarter and you still haven't played.

1465
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:36,000
That means you're really second team, right?

1466
02:03:36,000 --> 02:03:38,000
That's really second team.

1467
02:03:38,000 --> 02:03:42,000
And if you're Steve Bazarkowitz, there's no way Jose.

1468
02:03:42,000 --> 02:03:45,000
It's second and 10 at the 49 yard line.

1469
02:03:45,000 --> 02:03:48,000
Kaya is going to be sacked by Bobby Leopold.

1470
02:03:48,000 --> 02:03:51,000
Kaya stumbled as he took the snap from center.

1471
02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:58,000
Never stood a chance and Leopold was all over him, like ugly on an ape.

1472
02:03:58,000 --> 02:04:02,000
Bobby Leopold helped him to the ground so he wouldn't hurt himself when he fell.

1473
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:04,000
Oh, that's terrible. Okay.

1474
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:06,000
That's two sacks on the evening.

1475
02:04:06,000 --> 02:04:11,000
That's two sacks on the evening for the Generals against the quarterback, Reggie Kaya.

1476
02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:17,000
Well, I reckon at 24 to nothing this constitutes a life for a long about here with 14 minutes left in the game and the clock running.

1477
02:04:17,000 --> 02:04:22,000
It becomes a chuckle. But you know how close it was right before the half? It could have been 10 to 7.

1478
02:04:22,000 --> 02:04:26,000
Could have. Could have. Could have. What does it could have? Something we lived with the first year.

1479
02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:31,000
Third and 20 for Orlando at their own 39.

1480
02:04:31,000 --> 02:04:35,000
This time Kaya ran out of the shotgun. This time Kaya is just able to get rid of the ball.

1481
02:04:35,000 --> 02:04:38,000
And it's intercepted by Gregory Johnson.

1482
02:04:38,000 --> 02:04:42,000
Johnson returns it to the 44 yard line of the Jersey.

1483
02:04:42,000 --> 02:04:50,000
And Reggie Kaya was splattered at the 34 yard line and he is face down on the Giants Stadium turf.

1484
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:53,000
And you also have a flag at this end against Orlando.

1485
02:04:53,000 --> 02:04:58,000
They're going to get caught for spearing Greg Johnson on his return.

1486
02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:05,000
I got to tell you it was Freddie Gilbert coming in number 90 coming in from his left end right defensive end position.

1487
02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:08,000
And really hit Kaya in the blind side.

1488
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:15,000
A very legitimate play because Kaya was just in the process of throwing the football and was hit while he was throwing the football.

1489
02:05:15,000 --> 02:05:18,000
And went down and he's still down on the field.

1490
02:05:18,000 --> 02:05:25,000
He was blindsided as Dave said by Freddie Gilbert and they are attending to him right now.

1491
02:05:25,000 --> 02:05:29,000
We have a break in the action. 13 minutes 42 seconds to go on the game.

1492
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:34,000
Generals 24. Orlando nothing. We're at Giants Stadium. The mental answer will be right back.

1493
02:05:34,000 --> 02:05:53,000
Why go to an old worn out place in Atlantic City when you can go to the hot new place in town.

1494
02:05:53,000 --> 02:05:57,000
Trump Plaza Hotel Casino.

1495
02:05:57,000 --> 02:06:11,000
A glittering world of glass, brass and class.

1496
02:06:11,000 --> 02:06:21,000
And best of all this place is right in the center of the action.

1497
02:06:21,000 --> 02:06:27,000
Come see for yourself Trump Plaza.

1498
02:06:27,000 --> 02:06:37,000
It's Atlantic City's centerpiece. Yeah.

1499
02:06:37,000 --> 02:06:40,000
Seated in section 117.

1500
02:06:40,000 --> 02:06:46,000
With the Tweety birds circling Reggie Kaya's head he is walking off the field ever so slowly now.

1501
02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:51,000
But for those who don't like the balance of football he is walking off the field.

1502
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:59,000
So the Generals have the ball first and 10 at the Orlando 39 following the interception by Gregory Johnson.

1503
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:09,000
An additional 15 yards tacked on the flag as a result of a spearing penalty assessed to Joel Patton the right tackle against Johnson on the return.

1504
02:07:09,000 --> 02:07:16,000
So it's the Generals first and 10 at the Orlando 40 yard line. Walker and Carthen split in the backfield.

1505
02:07:16,000 --> 02:07:20,000
Marcus Anderson is in the lineup along with Danny Knight as your wide receivers.

1506
02:07:20,000 --> 02:07:26,000
Hand out to Carthen straight ahead. Carthen to the 37 yard line and a pick up of three on the play.

1507
02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:32,000
Let's call it second down and seven yards to go. Scott Hutchinson and David Graham getting off the pot.

1508
02:07:32,000 --> 02:07:42,000
I think the question now is how long into this fourth quarter will Michaels will go with Flutie and Walker and Carthen before he gets them out knowing what's ahead of him over the next month of the season.

1509
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:48,000
Well to answer Dave Herman's question of a few minutes ago. Oh we go. Oh my goodness.

1510
02:07:48,000 --> 02:07:51,000
We got the muddle huddle. Tower.

1511
02:07:51,000 --> 02:07:58,000
Oh it's a little screen pass that Carthen dropped and then he picked up. It's an incomplete pass.

1512
02:07:58,000 --> 02:08:06,000
Well we haven't seen that in a while. The old muddle huddle with only Kent Hall over the ball. Seven players all over to the left side.

1513
02:08:06,000 --> 02:08:12,000
And behind that wall was Maurice Carthen. It would have been a great play except one thing. Carthen dropped the ball.

1514
02:08:12,000 --> 02:08:18,000
Well it was and I'll tell you why I dropped it too because the ball was thrown low and Doug Flutie got the ball from Kent Hall the center.

1515
02:08:18,000 --> 02:08:24,000
He was way high so Doug had to jump up in the air come down get his footing set throw it over there threw it low.

1516
02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:30,000
It was just a mixture play anyhow. It was nothing else but a mix up play. Walt wants his opposition down the road to look at these things.

1517
02:08:30,000 --> 02:08:37,000
It works for me in Central Park. 12-50 to go. Fourth quarter. General's 24th. Third and eight at the 38 yard line.

1518
02:08:37,000 --> 02:08:41,000
Flutie back to throw. Throw it quickly. Oh come on.

1519
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:48,000
By Jeff George. George has got nothing but real estate in front of him. George put back at the 25. Still on his feet at the 20.

1520
02:08:48,000 --> 02:08:56,000
15 yard line and he is down inside the 10 yard line. He fumbled the ball. He fumbled the ball and Doug Flutie picked it up.

1521
02:08:56,000 --> 02:09:07,000
He was down. Jeff George with a big interception and there is an injured Orlando Renegade all the way back at their own 40 yard line.

1522
02:09:07,000 --> 02:09:14,000
But the Renegades have the ball towards first and goal at the seven yard line.

1523
02:09:14,000 --> 02:09:28,000
Well I guess it is alright to have a little fun out there. But what really takes the concentration off of your football team and then Doug like we said so often has not been forcing the football and he absolutely did force the football in that last play.

1524
02:09:28,000 --> 02:09:37,000
And a big turnover for the Washington, I mean Washington Federal. They look at the Federal. Orlando Renegades and they are held now have an opportunity to put some points on the board.

1525
02:09:37,000 --> 02:09:45,000
So the Renegades have the ball first and goal at the eight yard line.

1526
02:09:45,000 --> 02:09:54,000
Generals however with a commanding 24 to nothing lead with 12 minutes and 35 seconds left in the football game.

1527
02:09:54,000 --> 02:10:02,000
It was a 57 yard return for George and that was his fourth interception of the year.

1528
02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:15,000
Well the backs into the wall now. What they are playing for now Charlie and like I said before they haven't had to shut out thus far this year and what they are playing for now is to shut out and it is really close to being away from them.

1529
02:10:15,000 --> 02:10:24,000
Orlando has football and creaked their position and have an opportunity of making some points here. Not at all concerned about winning the football game just getting some points on the board.

1530
02:10:24,000 --> 02:10:38,000
We go back to that muddle huddle play and the high snap from center. Dave Lapham has come in at center through that entire series. So you had the veteran coming in for Kent Hull and he was the guy that was in there when that ball was a little high but flew as he tried to get it over to Cartham.

1531
02:10:38,000 --> 02:10:50,000
Joining us in the General's Broadcast booth now is the owner of the Generals Donald Trump and we have had virtually all of the owners come through the Broadcast booth tonight.

1532
02:10:50,000 --> 02:11:00,000
Donald let me ask you first and foremost about your reaction to the meeting today and obviously you are pleased going to the fall beginning in 1986.

1533
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:07,000
Well I am very pleased. I believe in fall football. I like class whatever it might be and football is meant to be played in the fall.

1534
02:11:07,000 --> 02:11:13,000
We have done amazingly well with the Generals. Our attendance is way up from last year and way way up from the year before last.

1535
02:11:13,000 --> 02:11:23,000
But I know that we are even going to do better. I don't know if you just heard but we made a little slight challenge to our NFL neighbors and I want to see whether or not they can stop Doug Fruity and Herschel Walker.

1536
02:11:23,000 --> 02:11:26,000
What is that challenge with both Giants and Jets?

1537
02:11:26,000 --> 02:11:36,000
Well it's a little it's a charity and we will see what happens really at the appropriate time but you can't challenge when we are playing in different seasons and we will have plenty of challenges in the fall.

1538
02:11:36,000 --> 02:11:37,000
I guess you will.

1539
02:11:37,000 --> 02:11:45,000
We will be back with Donald just about. Jerry Goldstein is now in his quarterback. Reggie Collier got his bell rung pretty good in the last series of plays.

1540
02:11:45,000 --> 02:11:53,000
First in goal from the eighth. Goldstein back to throw. Throwing quickly for Jackie Flowers. Touchdown Orlando but hold the phone.

1541
02:11:53,000 --> 02:11:59,000
Flag on the play in the end zone and I think Joey Walters is going to be called for offensive interference.

1542
02:11:59,000 --> 02:12:01,000
Yes he is. That's exactly the call.

1543
02:12:01,000 --> 02:12:04,000
Flag on the play.

1544
02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:07,000
This is Bill Perkinson the referee.

1545
02:12:07,000 --> 02:12:09,000
Interference on the offense number 17.

1546
02:12:09,000 --> 02:12:10,000
Touchdown.

1547
02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:24,000
Absolutely. That's exactly the call Charlie. Joey Walters even though he wasn't involved in call for offensive pass interference and he did set touchdown a big break for the Generals as far as their shutout that goes.

1548
02:12:24,000 --> 02:12:32,000
So it will be second down and goal from the 18 yard line a loss of down.

1549
02:12:32,000 --> 02:12:36,000
The other question Donald that immediately comes to mind. Where will the Generals play?

1550
02:12:36,000 --> 02:12:47,000
At the Meadowlands. We fully expect to play at the Meadowlands. We're working with the officials right now and they've been super to us and the fans have been just incredible out here and we're going to be right at the Meadowlands.

1551
02:12:47,000 --> 02:12:57,000
Goldstein out of the shotgun throwing in the end zone for Joey Walters. Touchdown. Oh what a brilliant catch by Joey Walters in the corner of the end zone.

1552
02:12:57,000 --> 02:13:03,000
The fact that he was able to keep both feet in bounds with that catch quite a story hidden of itself.

1553
02:13:03,000 --> 02:13:08,000
And finally Orlando is on the board but the Generals still lead 24 to 6.

1554
02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:20,000
Outstanding throw out there a pass out there I should say by Jerry Goldstein the quarterback replacing Reggie Collier and put the ball right over the top of Walters shoulders and he came down inside.

1555
02:13:20,000 --> 02:13:28,000
Had to position when he caught the ball all you had to do was have position inside the end zone and you get to 7 points.

1556
02:13:28,000 --> 02:13:41,000
And so we've got Jeff Brockhouse who came through the Generals camp from time to time with the extra point trying to half our Orlando to snap the place to kick his up and he's good.

1557
02:13:41,000 --> 02:13:52,000
And we have a break in the action 11 53 to go on the football game. Generals 24 Orlando 7. We'll be back with more with Donald Trump and more of the football game in just a minute from the Meadowlands.

1558
02:13:52,000 --> 02:13:55,000
We'll be back on the New Jersey Generals football network.

1559
02:13:55,000 --> 02:14:11,000

1563
02:14:57,000 --> 02:15:02,000
The

1564
02:15:02,000 --> 02:15:13,000
Jeff Brockhouse making his way toward the football to squid kick fielded by Rod Pequeza to 10 yard line.

1565
02:15:13,000 --> 02:15:31,000
He said his 10 yard line Pequeza straight ahead to the 15 20 to the 30 yard line brought down at the 31 where it'll be first and tend to go generals leading 24 to 7 11 45 to go in quarter number four and there is a flag on the play and apparently off sides against Orlando.

1566
02:15:31,000 --> 02:15:38,000
They're having problems getting the kickoff right now they had a lot of problems coming in here and not many of them got solved as far tonight.

1567
02:15:38,000 --> 02:15:43,000
I think not in any event back to the matters at hand with Donald Trump.

1568
02:15:43,000 --> 02:15:48,000
It seemed as if coming out of the meeting today or at least going into the meeting.

1569
02:15:48,000 --> 02:15:53,000
Nobody really seemed to be quite sure what the outcome would be but it seemed like you all came out as a fairly united front.

1570
02:15:53,000 --> 02:16:03,000
Well I was pretty sure and I'd read these reports and I don't know where the reporters got their information because it's a 10 teams wanted to go to the spring and I knew that they didn't.

1571
02:16:03,000 --> 02:16:05,000
But I read what I read.

1572
02:16:05,000 --> 02:16:11,000
First and 10 for the generals at their own 32 yard line Walker and Carthen line up in the high formation.

1573
02:16:11,000 --> 02:16:14,000
Clued a calling signals one flanker off to the left side.

1574
02:16:14,000 --> 02:16:22,000
Clued in his to Herschel running left in front of Mo Carthike Walker turning the corner and his run out of bounds at the 38 yard line.

1575
02:16:22,000 --> 02:16:24,000
A pick up a six on the play.

1576
02:16:24,000 --> 02:16:25,000
Harold Randolph ran him out.

1577
02:16:25,000 --> 02:16:28,000
It'll be second down and four to go.

1578
02:16:28,000 --> 02:16:37,000
Now the question becomes where will you be televised and what days of the week will you be able to play here at Giant Stadium.

1579
02:16:37,000 --> 02:16:42,000
Well as you know we have Sunday and we have an exemption to play on Saturday and the Saturday exemption is very important.

1580
02:16:42,000 --> 02:16:54,000
There is a very vital vital situation and we have that we have the option of playing during the week Sunday evenings but that Saturday day and maybe Friday evenings we have some wonderful times to play.

1581
02:16:54,000 --> 02:17:01,000
General second and three at their own 39 yard line leading 24 7 with 11 minutes 15 seconds to go on the game.

1582
02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:03,000
Walker first his way straight ahead.

1583
02:17:03,000 --> 02:17:07,000
He's got the first down and then some brought down at the 44 yard line.

1584
02:17:07,000 --> 02:17:09,000
Let's be enjoying watching Herschel run this year.

1585
02:17:09,000 --> 02:17:10,000
Well he's the greatest.

1586
02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:12,000
I mean he could be the greatest of all time.

1587
02:17:12,000 --> 02:17:18,000
And as you know we made that little challenge before to our neighbors and I'd like to see them try and stop her trying to stop her to walk.

1588
02:17:18,000 --> 02:17:20,000
It would be very interesting.

1589
02:17:20,000 --> 02:17:31,000
I got to know not too many people that had success trying to stop her to walk her throughout this entire year and you know they give their defense for it and they're not that successful.

1590
02:17:31,000 --> 02:17:33,000
Hershel is just an outstanding football player.

1591
02:17:33,000 --> 02:17:38,000
Walker 21 carries 146 yards clock running 10 35 to go on the game.

1592
02:17:38,000 --> 02:17:42,000
General 24 7 first and 10 for their own 45.

1593
02:17:42,000 --> 02:17:47,000
Flutie back to throw Flutie with time going long down the field for Danny night the overthrow of 20 yards.

1594
02:17:47,000 --> 02:17:48,000
There was a mix up on that play.

1595
02:17:48,000 --> 02:17:55,000
I think Knight was trying to run a post corner and instead of breaking back out to the sideline where Flutie put the ball he stayed on the post course.

1596
02:17:55,000 --> 02:17:56,000
And that's part of the problem.

1597
02:17:56,000 --> 02:18:03,000
Danny Knight has not seen much action of late as an offensive receiver for the general second and 10 at the 45 yard line.

1598
02:18:03,000 --> 02:18:11,000
As far as television is concerned Donald a lot of people are going to wonder where and how they're going to be able to see the games and where and how you all going to make some money.

1599
02:18:11,000 --> 02:18:16,000
Well you have a lot of options coming up and you have a very good chance for an NFL strike as an example in 1987.

1600
02:18:16,000 --> 02:18:21,000
And I think after the monopoly stops in terms of 1986 hopefully we'll stop with the networks.

1601
02:18:21,000 --> 02:18:24,000
We'll have our options with the networks also.

1602
02:18:24,000 --> 02:18:26,000
Second and 10 at the 45 yard line.

1603
02:18:26,000 --> 02:18:28,000
Flutie out of the shotgun.

1604
02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:31,000
Flutie with time setting up a screen for Walker.

1605
02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:34,000
Walker dipsy doodles at the 40 and he goes down at the 40 yard line.

1606
02:18:34,000 --> 02:18:40,000
Flag on the play however a loss of five if the play stands but there is a flag on the play.

1607
02:18:40,000 --> 02:18:41,000
The flag is against Vince Strode.

1608
02:18:41,000 --> 02:18:47,000
The left guard who got downfield about five yards before the play was the pass was completed.

1609
02:18:47,000 --> 02:18:52,000
With the loss on it it will be interesting to see what Orlando decides to do.

1610
02:18:52,000 --> 02:18:53,000
Downfield.

1611
02:18:53,000 --> 02:18:54,000
It's a loss of down.

1612
02:18:54,000 --> 02:19:01,000
All right so that will set up a third down and long for New Jersey.

1613
02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:07,000
Donald as far as TV however at the moment obviously no network for 86.

1614
02:19:07,000 --> 02:19:12,000
How then does the league plan to get the games with stadium to hold.

1615
02:19:12,000 --> 02:19:17,000
What seems to be happening we've had tremendous offers of great syndications.

1616
02:19:17,000 --> 02:19:23,000
We also have interest from certain networks although you're going to find that a little bit strange to hear.

1617
02:19:23,000 --> 02:19:28,000
But we have some very interesting things cooking Charlie and I think you're going to be finding out over the relatively short period of time.

1618
02:19:28,000 --> 02:19:30,000
It's a lot of interest in the league.

1619
02:19:30,000 --> 02:19:34,000
So the generals now third and 20 back at their own 35 yard line.

1620
02:19:34,000 --> 02:19:42,000
Herschel the single setback and he gets a handoff on a little drop like Walker versus way over the 45 to the 48 yard line.

1621
02:19:42,000 --> 02:19:52,000
They'll be well short of the first down but Walker picks up another 13 yards so he's up to about a hundred and fifty nine on twenty two.

1622
02:19:52,000 --> 02:19:55,000
He has a great ability when he doesn't have to take a guy.

1623
02:19:55,000 --> 02:19:58,000
He can drop his shoulder and slip between the tacklers.

1624
02:19:58,000 --> 02:20:01,000
But then when he does take a guy on they really pay for it.

1625
02:20:01,000 --> 02:20:04,000
Herschel Walker is playing at one of his better games here again tonight.

1626
02:20:04,000 --> 02:20:08,000
Clock continues to run nine minutes and 20 seconds left.

1627
02:20:08,000 --> 02:20:11,000
Partridge with a high floating punt.

1628
02:20:11,000 --> 02:20:15,000
Victor Jackson will be forced to fair catch all the way back at his 13 yard line.

1629
02:20:15,000 --> 02:20:18,000
Breaking the action 916 to go in the game.

1630
02:20:18,000 --> 02:20:25,000
Generals 24 Orlando 7 for a giant stadium in the middle lands and we'll be back in a minute.

1631
02:20:25,000 --> 02:20:27,000
Hey Cab.

1632
02:20:27,000 --> 02:20:28,000
Bob Hope.

1633
02:20:28,000 --> 02:20:29,000
Hi.

1634
02:20:29,000 --> 02:20:33,000
Better put on these earmuffs to drown out the engine knocks.

1635
02:20:33,000 --> 02:20:36,000
Hey you don't need earmuffs you need star power.

1636
02:20:36,000 --> 02:20:42,000
Texaco star power the higher octane and Texaco super unleaded that can help knock out the knocks.

1637
02:20:42,000 --> 02:20:44,000
Hey Cab.

1638
02:20:44,000 --> 02:20:45,000
Hello again Mr. Hope.

1639
02:20:45,000 --> 02:20:49,000
You know the engine's so quiet now I can tell you some of my jokes.

1640
02:20:49,000 --> 02:20:50,000
You still have those earmuffs?

1641
02:20:50,000 --> 02:20:59,000
Star power the higher octane.

1642
02:21:20,000 --> 02:21:23,000
Smooth rides get a set of gas cushion Delco performer shocks.

1643
02:21:23,000 --> 02:21:26,000
AC Delco the smart parts.

1644
02:21:26,000 --> 02:21:35,000
Available at Burack Chevrolet and Olds 15 boot and turn pipe in Lincoln Park.

1645
02:21:35,000 --> 02:21:37,000
Nine minutes 16 seconds left in the game.

1646
02:21:37,000 --> 02:21:44,000
Generals 24 Orlando 7 renegades with the ball first and 10 all the way back to their own 14 yard line.

1647
02:21:44,000 --> 02:21:48,000
Since the loss in Arizona the generals really have come of age.

1648
02:21:48,000 --> 02:21:51,000
I guess Donald you have to be awfully pleased the way this team has been looking.

1649
02:21:51,000 --> 02:21:54,000
Not only is the fact that they are winning but the way they have been winning.

1650
02:21:54,000 --> 02:21:57,000
They've been looking super but they've been giving the ball to Herschel Walker.

1651
02:21:57,000 --> 02:22:01,000
That was a game that was very frightening in the sense that they didn't give the ball.

1652
02:22:01,000 --> 02:22:02,000
You go ahead with the play.

1653
02:22:02,000 --> 02:22:07,000
Alright Goldstein back to throw throwing over the middle and he completes it to Joey Walters to the 35 yard line.

1654
02:22:07,000 --> 02:22:09,000
Not a bad color guy either.

1655
02:22:09,000 --> 02:22:12,000
Bob Hope get the play by play and you got it and you're back again.

1656
02:22:12,000 --> 02:22:15,000
Nobody to compete with you two gentlemen.

1657
02:22:15,000 --> 02:22:18,000
You got other things right.

1658
02:22:18,000 --> 02:22:24,000
Anyway but the way the generals have played up both sides of the football certainly Herschel has been a story.

1659
02:22:24,000 --> 02:22:29,000
But the offensive line has come on and done the job and defensively now they're beginning to get the other guys out.

1660
02:22:29,000 --> 02:22:32,000
They've really been super they've been great the fans love them.

1661
02:22:32,000 --> 02:22:37,000
Goldstein now out of the shotgun first and 10 Orlando at their own 35 yard line.

1662
02:22:37,000 --> 02:22:43,000
Goldstein with time to throw throwing long down the sideline for Jackie Flowers.

1663
02:22:43,000 --> 02:22:46,000
But the pass is out of bounds and thus incomplete.

1664
02:22:46,000 --> 02:22:50,000
It'll be second down and 10 at the 35 yard line.

1665
02:22:50,000 --> 02:22:54,000
So all in all you have to be terribly pleased with the way things turned out today.

1666
02:22:54,000 --> 02:22:58,000
Well Charlie as you and Dave know before I had this team it was really a disaster.

1667
02:22:58,000 --> 02:23:02,000
You had some long long days up here and the fans had lost interest in it frankly.

1668
02:23:02,000 --> 02:23:04,000
They were losing and they were losing big.

1669
02:23:04,000 --> 02:23:09,000
And we put some players in there and we have an excellent coach and an excellent group of people.

1670
02:23:09,000 --> 02:23:11,000
And they are they are looking pretty tough.

1671
02:23:11,000 --> 02:23:13,000
They've been a tough team for two years.

1672
02:23:13,000 --> 02:23:15,000
Well I don't know they sure have.

1673
02:23:15,000 --> 02:23:20,000
Second and 10 at the 35 yard line once again Goldstein out of the shotgun with full wide outs.

1674
02:23:20,000 --> 02:23:26,000
Goldstein back to throw throwing sideline incomplete intended for Joey Walters at the midfield stripe.

1675
02:23:26,000 --> 02:23:29,000
But tipped away at the last second by Janelle Daniel.

1676
02:23:29,000 --> 02:23:32,000
And you've got a flag on the play here probably holding against Orlando.

1677
02:23:32,000 --> 02:23:34,000
Goldstein strictly a drop back passer.

1678
02:23:34,000 --> 02:23:36,000
It was not holding Bob it was in tip.

1679
02:23:36,000 --> 02:23:38,000
Roughing the passer after the ball was thrown.

1680
02:23:38,000 --> 02:23:41,000
The generals are coming into it and that's all they're playing now.

1681
02:23:41,000 --> 02:23:44,000
The passing situation trying their best to get there.

1682
02:23:44,000 --> 02:23:48,000
That time they had an end tackle game the tackle stunted outside the defensive end.

1683
02:23:48,000 --> 02:23:52,000
Freddie Gilbert come up on the inside and after Goldstein at least it was determined by the official.

1684
02:23:52,000 --> 02:23:55,000
After he threw the football he was hit knocked to the ground.

1685
02:23:55,000 --> 02:23:58,000
They called it an unnecessary ruffles to the passer.

1686
02:23:58,000 --> 02:24:01,000
Given the first down on the 50 yard line right in the middle of the field.

1687
02:24:01,000 --> 02:24:03,000
They intentionally grounded Goldstein.

1688
02:24:03,000 --> 02:24:04,000
Yes they did.

1689
02:24:04,000 --> 02:24:10,000
Postgame phone show coming up immediately following our broadcast at 212489 WMCA.

1690
02:24:10,000 --> 02:24:16,000
212489 WMCA and of course we welcome the calls from Boston over WMRE.

1691
02:24:16,000 --> 02:24:18,000
745 to go.

1692
02:24:18,000 --> 02:24:19,000
First to 10 from the 50.

1693
02:24:19,000 --> 02:24:20,000
Goldstein back to throw.

1694
02:24:20,000 --> 02:24:24,000
He completes it to Nisalick the tight end at the 45 yard line of New Jersey.

1695
02:24:24,000 --> 02:24:25,000
A pick up of five on the play.

1696
02:24:25,000 --> 02:24:28,000
It'll be second down and five yards to go.

1697
02:24:28,000 --> 02:24:32,000
Chicago will be back in the league next year.

1698
02:24:32,000 --> 02:24:33,000
Is that right Donald?

1699
02:24:33,000 --> 02:24:37,000
They will be back in the league next year Charlie and we have a great owner Eddie Einhorn.

1700
02:24:37,000 --> 02:24:40,000
And he's got a group and they own the as you know they own the White Sox.

1701
02:24:40,000 --> 02:24:43,000
And they've been very positive.

1702
02:24:43,000 --> 02:24:45,000
They only want full football.

1703
02:24:45,000 --> 02:24:47,000
And apparently that's what they're going to get.

1704
02:24:47,000 --> 02:24:48,000
That's what they're going to be getting.

1705
02:24:48,000 --> 02:24:51,000
But minus however the Tampa Bay Bandits.

1706
02:24:51,000 --> 02:24:54,000
Well I think that's a positive as far as I'm concerned.

1707
02:24:54,000 --> 02:24:55,000
Alright we'll get back to that in a minute.

1708
02:24:55,000 --> 02:24:57,000
Second and four from the 44 yard line.

1709
02:24:57,000 --> 02:24:58,000
Goldstein back to throw.

1710
02:24:58,000 --> 02:25:00,000
Goldstein with time.

1711
02:25:00,000 --> 02:25:02,000
Pitching it long downfield and nobody in particular.

1712
02:25:02,000 --> 02:25:08,000
The closest man to the football was Gregory Johnson all the way back at the five yard line.

1713
02:25:08,000 --> 02:25:13,000
The closest intended receiver Jerry Parrish is about 20 yards off the ball.

1714
02:25:13,000 --> 02:25:15,000
Great play by Jerry Holmes though.

1715
02:25:15,000 --> 02:25:16,000
There's the difference on the corner.

1716
02:25:16,000 --> 02:25:19,000
Jerry Holmes held up both Parrish and Joey Walters.

1717
02:25:19,000 --> 02:25:20,000
Did not permit him to get deep.

1718
02:25:20,000 --> 02:25:22,000
Goldstein threw the ball away.

1719
02:25:22,000 --> 02:25:24,000
Now as far as the Tampa Bay Bandits are concerned.

1720
02:25:24,000 --> 02:25:26,000
They were drawing pretty well down there.

1721
02:25:26,000 --> 02:25:30,000
Yet for reasons that John Bassett can best describe.

1722
02:25:30,000 --> 02:25:33,000
He has opted to stay in the springtime.

1723
02:25:33,000 --> 02:25:36,000
And at the moment I guess he's guaranteed of a playoff spot next spring.

1724
02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:38,000
Because he's going to be the only one playing there.

1725
02:25:38,000 --> 02:25:39,000
We'll talk about that in a second.

1726
02:25:39,000 --> 02:25:41,000
On third and fourth the 44 yard line.

1727
02:25:41,000 --> 02:25:43,000
Goldstein is back to throw.

1728
02:25:43,000 --> 02:25:44,000
Goldstein with time.

1729
02:25:44,000 --> 02:25:45,000
Lots of time.

1730
02:25:45,000 --> 02:25:46,000
Throwing it out of the backfield.

1731
02:25:46,000 --> 02:25:51,000
It is nearly intercepted by Bobby Leopold at the 39 yard line.

1732
02:25:51,000 --> 02:25:53,000
That'll be fourth and four from the 44.

1733
02:25:53,000 --> 02:25:55,000
Back to your thoughts about Tampa Bay and Bassett.

1734
02:25:55,000 --> 02:25:56,000
Well John Bassett's got his.

1735
02:25:56,000 --> 02:25:58,000
He's really got his own agenda frankly.

1736
02:25:58,000 --> 02:26:02,000
And John is one of the founders of the World Football League.

1737
02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:04,000
And we haven't been losers in life.

1738
02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:05,000
And we don't intend to be.

1739
02:26:05,000 --> 02:26:07,000
And frankly John is at this moment.

1740
02:26:07,000 --> 02:26:09,000
John is just the spring man.

1741
02:26:09,000 --> 02:26:11,000
And he felt strongly about the World Football League.

1742
02:26:11,000 --> 02:26:14,000
He feels strongly about spring football.

1743
02:26:14,000 --> 02:26:16,000
And that's all I can say.

1744
02:26:16,000 --> 02:26:19,000
And so on that third and four pass situation.

1745
02:26:19,000 --> 02:26:22,000
It was holding against the general's defensive holding.

1746
02:26:22,000 --> 02:26:24,000
It's a five yard penalty.

1747
02:26:24,000 --> 02:26:25,000
Automatic first down.

1748
02:26:25,000 --> 02:26:30,000
So it's Orlando first and 10 at the general 40 yard line.

1749
02:26:30,000 --> 02:26:34,000
Generals lead 24 to 7 with six minutes 35 seconds to go in the game.

1750
02:26:34,000 --> 02:26:36,000
And the clock continues to run.

1751
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:38,000
Now they're in the high formation.

1752
02:26:38,000 --> 02:26:40,000
Interestingly enough Goldstein is back to throw.

1753
02:26:40,000 --> 02:26:42,000
Throwing a fly pattern for Joey Walters.

1754
02:26:42,000 --> 02:26:45,000
And in and out of Walters hands at the five yard line.

1755
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:48,000
Step for step Jerry Holtz.

1756
02:26:48,000 --> 02:26:52,000
Donald I can understand why and how football.

1757
02:26:52,000 --> 02:26:55,000
You mentioned that one window you have open this Saturday afternoon.

1758
02:26:55,000 --> 02:26:58,000
I can understand how it would be accepted here in New York.

1759
02:26:58,000 --> 02:26:59,000
Maybe in Chicago.

1760
02:26:59,000 --> 02:27:04,000
But how about Birmingham and some of those cities where college football seems to reign supreme.

1761
02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:06,000
What's your research tell you about that?

1762
02:27:06,000 --> 02:27:07,000
I believe it's not research it's instinct.

1763
02:27:07,000 --> 02:27:10,000
And I believe from my own standpoint they'll do better.

1764
02:27:10,000 --> 02:27:12,000
Now they've been doing certain teams have done very well.

1765
02:27:12,000 --> 02:27:14,000
Certain of the Sunbell teams have done very well.

1766
02:27:14,000 --> 02:27:18,000
As well as they've done they'll do better in the traditional football season.

1767
02:27:18,000 --> 02:27:19,000
Okay.

1768
02:27:19,000 --> 02:27:20,000
Johnny here we go again.

1769
02:27:20,000 --> 02:27:22,000
Shotgun formation.

1770
02:27:22,000 --> 02:27:24,000
Second and ten from the 40 yard line.

1771
02:27:24,000 --> 02:27:26,000
Parish in motion to the far side.

1772
02:27:26,000 --> 02:27:27,000
Goldstein back to throw.

1773
02:27:27,000 --> 02:27:29,000
Goldstein with time throwing sideline.

1774
02:27:29,000 --> 02:27:33,000
Incomplete intended for Wilford Morgan at the 35 yard line.

1775
02:27:33,000 --> 02:27:37,000
And once again Jerry Holtz is all over his man.

1776
02:27:37,000 --> 02:27:39,000
He's become a one man show hasn't he Bob?

1777
02:27:39,000 --> 02:27:46,000
Well the story we've said all season is that Jerry Holtz has caught this defensive secondary together.

1778
02:27:46,000 --> 02:27:49,000
The confidence he has the experience and everybody plays to his level.

1779
02:27:49,000 --> 02:27:50,000
That's the difference.

1780
02:27:50,000 --> 02:27:54,000
Jerry Holtz just runs he has the instincts as Donald Trump talks about instincts.

1781
02:27:54,000 --> 02:27:58,000
He has the instincts to play defense as well as anybody I've seen in this league.

1782
02:27:58,000 --> 02:28:01,000
Orlando third and ten at the 40.

1783
02:28:01,000 --> 02:28:03,000
At the general 40 yard line.

1784
02:28:03,000 --> 02:28:05,000
Parish in motion to the far side.

1785
02:28:05,000 --> 02:28:06,000
Goldstein out of the shotgun.

1786
02:28:06,000 --> 02:28:08,000
Goldstein being chased.

1787
02:28:08,000 --> 02:28:12,000
Goldstein being sacked all the way back at the 49 yard line.

1788
02:28:12,000 --> 02:28:14,000
It was Freddie Gilbert.

1789
02:28:14,000 --> 02:28:15,000
Frank Maddie's.

1790
02:28:15,000 --> 02:28:16,000
Bobby Leopold.

1791
02:28:16,000 --> 02:28:18,000
And Kim Byrne getting off the pot.

1792
02:28:18,000 --> 02:28:21,000
Bobby Leopold coming from his linebacker position.

1793
02:28:21,000 --> 02:28:24,000
He don't see Bobby Leopold that often.

1794
02:28:24,000 --> 02:28:27,000
And he came through Scott Free again a mix up on that offensive line.

1795
02:28:27,000 --> 02:28:29,000
They've got to pick them all up from the inside out.

1796
02:28:29,000 --> 02:28:32,000
And he obviously didn't let Leopold come Scott Free through there.

1797
02:28:32,000 --> 02:28:35,000
And he threw the quarterback Jerry Goldstein down for a big loss.

1798
02:28:35,000 --> 02:28:38,000
That is the general's third sack of the evening.

1799
02:28:38,000 --> 02:28:40,000
The Jersey 24 Orlando 7.

1800
02:28:40,000 --> 02:28:42,000
Six minutes left in the game.

1801
02:28:42,000 --> 02:28:45,000
Frank catered a punted away fourth and 21.

1802
02:28:45,000 --> 02:28:48,000
Linus Grimmage Orlando's 49 yard line.

1803
02:28:48,000 --> 02:28:49,000
Good snap from center.

1804
02:28:49,000 --> 02:28:52,000
Cater angling it for the side.

1805
02:28:52,000 --> 02:28:55,000
It bounces at the 10 and Danny Knight fields it on one hop.

1806
02:28:55,000 --> 02:28:57,000
And Danny Knight is still on his feet.

1807
02:28:57,000 --> 02:29:00,000
Finally he goes down at the 14 yard line.

1808
02:29:00,000 --> 02:29:02,000
I expect Danny Knight had it to do over again.

1809
02:29:02,000 --> 02:29:03,000
He would have let it bounce.

1810
02:29:03,000 --> 02:29:04,000
Well I don't know.

1811
02:29:04,000 --> 02:29:05,000
He did let the thing bounce Charlie.

1812
02:29:05,000 --> 02:29:07,000
But a good heads up play on his part.

1813
02:29:07,000 --> 02:29:11,000
Got the ball from the back down inside the 10 yard line.

1814
02:29:11,000 --> 02:29:12,000
He brought it back as far as he could.

1815
02:29:12,000 --> 02:29:13,000
Breaking the action 5.

1816
02:29:13,000 --> 02:29:15,000
49 to go quarter number four.

1817
02:29:15,000 --> 02:29:17,000
General's 24 Orlando 7.

1818
02:29:17,000 --> 02:29:19,000
We're at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

1819
02:29:19,000 --> 02:29:23,000
And we'll be back on the New Jersey General's football network.

1820
02:29:23,000 --> 02:29:26,000
Are you concerned about the cost of heating or cooling your home?

1821
02:29:26,000 --> 02:29:31,000
If you are, PSE&G, Public Service Electric and Gas Company of New Jersey has a solution.

1822
02:29:31,000 --> 02:29:37,000
PSE&G will send an energy specialist to check out your home from basement to attic to look for energy leaks.

1823
02:29:37,000 --> 02:29:42,000
You'll then receive a computerized report on exactly where your home is losing energy and what you can do about it.

1824
02:29:42,000 --> 02:29:44,000
Cost of the service only $15.

1825
02:29:44,000 --> 02:29:50,000
With the report you also receive a free energy savings kit so you can begin to stop those energy leaks right now.

1826
02:29:50,000 --> 02:29:59,000
Call the PSE&G Energy Conservation Center toll free at 1-800-854-4444 and ask about the home energy survey.

1827
02:29:59,000 --> 02:30:03,000
And look for more information about the survey in this month's public service mailing.

1828
02:30:03,000 --> 02:30:07,000
Remember the number to call is 1-800-854-4444.

1829
02:30:07,000 --> 02:30:11,000
1-800-854-4444.

1830
02:30:11,000 --> 02:30:18,000
57, WMCA, New York.

1831
02:30:22,000 --> 02:30:24,000
5.49 to go on the game.

1832
02:30:24,000 --> 02:30:26,000
Generals lead it 24 to 7.

1833
02:30:26,000 --> 02:30:31,000
Donald Trump, thank you again for stopping up in the booth and good luck in the fall of 86.

1834
02:30:31,000 --> 02:30:32,000
Thank you very much, Charlie.

1835
02:30:32,000 --> 02:30:36,000
We appreciate you guys doing a fabulous job for us and we appreciate it very much.

1836
02:30:36,000 --> 02:30:37,000
Thank you very much.

1837
02:30:37,000 --> 02:30:41,000
Donald Trump, very much in the news these days.

1838
02:30:41,000 --> 02:30:45,000
Generals now with the ball first and 10 back in their own 15 yard line.

1839
02:30:45,000 --> 02:30:47,000
Hand off to Moe Carthon off left tackle.

1840
02:30:47,000 --> 02:30:50,000
Carthon pulling his way to the 21 yard line, a pick up of 6.

1841
02:30:50,000 --> 02:30:51,000
Second down and 4 to go.

1842
02:30:51,000 --> 02:30:56,000
Bernard West, right side linebacker out of North Texas State made the tackle.

1843
02:30:56,000 --> 02:30:59,000
Now we've got substitutions in the game for the Generals on offense.

1844
02:30:59,000 --> 02:31:04,000
At center we have Dave Lapham, Tony Osborne at left tackle, John Jewell is at right guard.

1845
02:31:04,000 --> 02:31:08,000
And at the tailback position for Herschel Walker, Rod Pegues.

1846
02:31:08,000 --> 02:31:15,000
Well, we were kidding about Jerry Goldstein before and Goldstein now has a nice bag on his left hand.

1847
02:31:15,000 --> 02:31:20,000
Steve Pizarkowitz, we were kidding about even more earlier before, has his helmet on.

1848
02:31:20,000 --> 02:31:25,000
And we may see, I think for the first time in the 3 years we've been broadcasting together, Dave and Bob,

1849
02:31:25,000 --> 02:31:29,000
a third string quarterback actually come in and play.

1850
02:31:29,000 --> 02:31:30,000
Here's Rod Pegues at the handoff.

1851
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:35,000
They've given Herschel the rest of the evening off, Pegues out over the 25 to about the 29 yard line,

1852
02:31:35,000 --> 02:31:38,000
a pick up of 7, he needed 3 for the first downs.

1853
02:31:38,000 --> 02:31:41,000
The Generals record their 16th first down of the evening.

1854
02:31:41,000 --> 02:31:46,000
Well, whatever happened, Charlie, to the time when you used to take the players out one by one

1855
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:49,000
and let the crowd cheer and all that, you know, now they just take him out on the sideline,

1856
02:31:49,000 --> 02:31:50,000
nobody knows he's missing it.

1857
02:31:50,000 --> 02:31:54,000
Well, most of the crowd's also headed for the parking lot by now too.

1858
02:31:54,000 --> 02:31:56,000
Rod Pegues.

1859
02:31:56,000 --> 02:32:00,000
Herschel retires for the evening, 22 carries, 159 yards.

1860
02:32:00,000 --> 02:32:05,000
That gives him 1,100 and...

1861
02:32:05,000 --> 02:32:07,000
Think, think, think, quick, quick.

1862
02:32:07,000 --> 02:32:09,000
This is pressure, 65.

1863
02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:10,000
Thank you.

1864
02:32:10,000 --> 02:32:12,000
Clock running, 3.55 to go on the game.

1865
02:32:12,000 --> 02:32:13,000
Carthin with the handoff.

1866
02:32:13,000 --> 02:32:18,000
Carthin goes nowhere and is brought down after maybe gaining 2 on the play.

1867
02:32:18,000 --> 02:32:22,000
It'll be 2nd and 8. Bernard West again in on the tackle.

1868
02:32:22,000 --> 02:32:27,000
Well, Donald and all of the owners certainly have put on a very united front, Dave and Bob.

1869
02:32:27,000 --> 02:32:32,000
They've come out of this Armageddon-type meeting that was certainly this morning

1870
02:32:32,000 --> 02:32:35,000
into one that was certainly a unifying factor by the end of the day.

1871
02:32:35,000 --> 02:32:39,000
Let me tell you, there's one guy, if there's one guy in this league, you can put it together

1872
02:32:39,000 --> 02:32:41,000
and hold it together, it's Donald Trump.

1873
02:32:41,000 --> 02:32:47,000
You know, we were talking before the game, Donald was explaining the new deal that he made down in Atlantic City.

1874
02:32:47,000 --> 02:32:48,000
Yes, yes.

1875
02:32:48,000 --> 02:32:49,000
He bought yet another casino.

1876
02:32:49,000 --> 02:32:52,000
He bought it from Barron Hill, one of my personal friends, I know.

1877
02:32:52,000 --> 02:32:55,000
2nd and 8 from the 30, Generals leading 24-7.

1878
02:32:55,000 --> 02:32:57,000
Pitch out to Pagese running off left tackle.

1879
02:32:57,000 --> 02:32:59,000
Pagese lucky to turn the corner.

1880
02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:01,000
He did, he's brought down at the 31.

1881
02:33:01,000 --> 02:33:02,000
Pagese is a mortal human being.

1882
02:33:02,000 --> 02:33:05,000
We get used to seeing Herschel so often.

1883
02:33:05,000 --> 02:33:09,000
But Pagese is brought down, picked up a couple on the play, 3rd and 6 at the 32.

1884
02:33:09,000 --> 02:33:13,000
So routinely, you know, he purchases a $350 million hotel,

1885
02:33:13,000 --> 02:33:17,000
ba-bum, ba-bum, ba-bum, and then another day he comes in and saves the lead.

1886
02:33:17,000 --> 02:33:22,000
Well, you know, getting back to the comments, you've had a lot of owners on, and of course Don Klosterman.

1887
02:33:22,000 --> 02:33:26,000
But the truth of the matter is, I ran into Peter Hadhazy down here before the game,

1888
02:33:26,000 --> 02:33:32,000
and he was absolutely enthusiastic and ecstatic about the way Harry Usher conducted these meetings.

1889
02:33:32,000 --> 02:33:33,000
That's what I heard.

1890
02:33:33,000 --> 02:33:35,000
So I think we've come away, they've come away, not only the owners,

1891
02:33:35,000 --> 02:33:38,000
but people who have been in pro football a long time like Pete Hadhazy,

1892
02:33:38,000 --> 02:33:41,000
very impressed with what they accomplished today.

1893
02:33:41,000 --> 02:33:46,000
What the league needed was a leader, and apparently Harry Usher, our half-time guest, has provided that leadership.

1894
02:33:46,000 --> 02:33:50,000
Here's Flutie, doing some dipsy-doodling at the 30, looking for the sideline.

1895
02:33:50,000 --> 02:33:52,000
Oh, there he goes at the 30 yard line.

1896
02:33:52,000 --> 02:33:55,000
He must have run about 45 yards and lost 2 on the play.

1897
02:33:55,000 --> 02:33:58,000
I think he meant 35 seconds at 45 yards.

1898
02:33:58,000 --> 02:33:59,000
I'll see you guys up there.

1899
02:33:59,000 --> 02:34:01,000
But I'll tell you, that's the way to get it going.

1900
02:34:01,000 --> 02:34:07,000
Bob Cassiola, when he begins to make his ascent up to the broadcast booth,

1901
02:34:07,000 --> 02:34:12,000
we know that the game is pretty well in hand, and it has been, frankly, all night long,

1902
02:34:12,000 --> 02:34:16,000
with the Generals leading 24 to 7, 2 minutes 9 seconds to go on the game,

1903
02:34:16,000 --> 02:34:19,000
at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands, and we'll be back.

1904
02:34:21,000 --> 02:34:24,000
Alfa Romeo says, enough.

1905
02:34:24,000 --> 02:34:29,000
It's time the rich and famous stop hoarding these prestigious machines and having all the fun.

1906
02:34:29,000 --> 02:34:31,000
It's time you had your turn.

1907
02:34:31,000 --> 02:34:34,000
Introducing the graduate from Alfa Romeo.

1908
02:34:34,000 --> 02:34:38,000
Two-contoured seats, a 2-liter engine, disc brakes on all four wheels,

1909
02:34:38,000 --> 02:34:42,000
5-speed transmission, and styling that is legendary with Alfa.

1910
02:34:42,000 --> 02:34:48,000
Power, performance, the driving joy of a world-class sporting car.

1911
02:34:48,000 --> 02:34:51,000
The price, $13,495.

1912
02:34:51,000 --> 02:34:56,000
Low enough to bring one of racing's great marks into your own garage.

1913
02:34:56,000 --> 02:35:00,000
In addition, your Tri-State Alfa Romeo dealers offer a 6-year,

1914
02:35:00,000 --> 02:35:05,000
60,000 mile optional warranty beyond the standard 3 and 36 warranty.

1915
02:35:05,000 --> 02:35:10,000
Visit your Tri-State Alfa Romeo dealer and test-fly the graduate.

1916
02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:14,000
Optional equipment, transportation preparation, taxes, and licensing extra.

1917
02:35:14,000 --> 02:35:18,000
And while you're there, mention the Generals and pick up your free gift.

1918
02:35:21,000 --> 02:35:24,000
Generals fourth and eight at their own 30-yard line.

1919
02:35:24,000 --> 02:35:29,000
Bartridge gets a pretty putt off that Victor Jackson will field back at his own 27-yard line,

1920
02:35:29,000 --> 02:35:32,000
cutting at the 30 and down he goes at the 33.

1921
02:35:32,000 --> 02:35:35,000
Giants Stadium has emptied out pretty well now.

1922
02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:42,000
We had a crowd of 38,084, and we probably have about 384 left in the park

1923
02:35:42,000 --> 02:35:44,000
as we have arrived at the 2-minute warning.

1924
02:35:44,000 --> 02:35:51,000
2 minutes left in the game at Giants Stadium with the Generals leading 24 to 7.

1925
02:35:51,000 --> 02:35:55,000
Don't forget, we've got the Post Game Phone Show coming up immediately following our broadcast

1926
02:35:55,000 --> 02:35:59,000
at area code 212-489-WMCA.

1927
02:35:59,000 --> 02:36:06,000
For those of you listening throughout New England, give us a call at 212-489-WMCA.

1928
02:36:06,000 --> 02:36:10,000
Steve Pizarkowitz, you may remember him playing for the St. Louis Cardinals,

1929
02:36:10,000 --> 02:36:12,000
the taxi quarterback.

1930
02:36:12,000 --> 02:36:17,000
Now the role in the USFL, you've got two quarterbacks who are active for a given game.

1931
02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:22,000
You have then a third string quarterback who can only play if the first two are down and out

1932
02:36:22,000 --> 02:36:23,000
and through for the day.

1933
02:36:23,000 --> 02:36:26,000
Thus, Steve Pizarkowitz is in the lineup.

1934
02:36:26,000 --> 02:36:30,000
Now you may be asking yourself, who is the General's third string quarterback?

1935
02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:33,000
You may be asking yourself who the second string quarterback is.

1936
02:36:33,000 --> 02:36:38,000
Doug Flutie, of course, is the starter and has seen virtually every play this year.

1937
02:36:38,000 --> 02:36:41,000
Ron Rees is the General's second string quarterback.

1938
02:36:41,000 --> 02:36:47,000
Only if Flutie and Rees went down would we ever see a gentleman by the name of Fred Hessen.

1939
02:36:47,000 --> 02:36:51,000
Fred Hessen is a six-foot quarterback who played at the taxi squad,

1940
02:36:51,000 --> 02:36:55,000
developmental squad, if you will, in the USFL the first two seasons with the Philadelphia Stars.

1941
02:36:55,000 --> 02:37:01,000
He even possesses a championship ring, although he has never seen a play in the USFL in his first two years.

1942
02:37:01,000 --> 02:37:04,000
Fred Hessen is the General's developmental quarterback.

1943
02:37:04,000 --> 02:37:06,000
Does he have a night job?

1944
02:37:06,000 --> 02:37:10,000
How much money does he make for the third string quarterback?

1945
02:37:10,000 --> 02:37:13,000
He must have a night job if he can go in.

1946
02:37:13,000 --> 02:37:15,000
First and 10 is terrible.

1947
02:37:15,000 --> 02:37:20,000
First and 10 is a 33, minute 58 left in the game, and Pizarkowitz is throwing for the first time.

1948
02:37:20,000 --> 02:37:27,000
Throwing a long side line for Wilford Morgan, playing on the play with the interference against Terry Daniels.

1949
02:37:27,000 --> 02:37:30,000
Ron Rees is now quarterbacking for the General's.

1950
02:37:30,000 --> 02:37:33,000
Mr. Flutie has taken a powder for the rest of the evening.

1951
02:37:33,000 --> 02:37:35,000
Minute 43 left in the game.

1952
02:37:35,000 --> 02:37:41,000
Hand off to Moe Carthon, who will get to the line of scrimmage and on a second effort, make it to the line of scrimmage.

1953
02:37:41,000 --> 02:37:46,000
Orlando picked up a two, second and eight as the clock continues to run with a minute and a half.

1954
02:37:46,000 --> 02:37:52,000
I'm sure there's some people from whom this movement is known that might see Moe Carthon take a rest, wouldn't you think?

1955
02:37:52,000 --> 02:37:58,000
The General's tonight with four interceptions.

1956
02:37:58,000 --> 02:38:00,000
That ties a record.

1957
02:38:00,000 --> 02:38:07,000
For most interceptions in one game by the General's, they did that against Los Angeles two years ago here at Giants Stadium.

1958
02:38:07,000 --> 02:38:11,000
And so the General's unbeaten string this year at home continues.

1959
02:38:11,000 --> 02:38:15,000
Less than a minute to go now, second and eight at the 48.

1960
02:38:15,000 --> 02:38:17,000
Rees, uh-oh, broken play.

1961
02:38:17,000 --> 02:38:21,000
Rees we have just learned is not Doug Flutie, but he's still on his feet.

1962
02:38:21,000 --> 02:38:28,000
There goes Rees. Rees is still on his feet inside the 35 to the 33 yard line.

1963
02:38:28,000 --> 02:38:31,000
There goes Rees to one knee and that will do it.

1964
02:38:31,000 --> 02:38:34,000
We have come to the end.

1965
02:38:34,000 --> 02:38:38,000
First of all for the Orlando Renegades, happily to the New Jersey General's.

1966
02:38:38,000 --> 02:38:45,000
The General's improved their record to seven and three and are now in a three-way tie for first place.

1967
02:38:45,000 --> 02:38:55,000
You're listening to New Jersey General's football on WMCA New York, brought to you in part by the Alpha Romeo President's Group, automobiles built for the fun-loving rich and you, if you hurry.

1968
02:38:55,000 --> 02:39:04,000
Orlando Renegades, the Renegades record drops to two up and eight down while the General's improved their record to six and three.

1969
02:39:04,000 --> 02:39:09,000
It was a dominating victory for the General's really on both sides of the football.

1970
02:39:09,000 --> 02:39:14,000
It really was a dominating victory for the General's on both sides of the football, especially in the running department.

1971
02:39:14,000 --> 02:39:18,000
Thirty-six yards total rushing by the Renegades, good defense for the General's.

1972
02:39:18,000 --> 02:39:22,000
Two hundred and ninety-one yards for the General's rushing attack here this evening.

1973
02:39:22,000 --> 02:39:30,000
An outstanding job by that running game and Flutie of course ran the football very well, but he threw the ball six, seven out of sixteen times for 109 yards.

1974
02:39:30,000 --> 02:39:38,000
He had the one eye on T which takes a little bit of weight for it, but the mix and match between the running game and the passing game for the General's has worked another time here this evening.

1975
02:39:38,000 --> 02:39:44,000
I guarantee you we will see on the highlight film next year the touchdown pass from Doug Flutie to Sam Bowers.

1976
02:39:44,000 --> 02:39:50,000
Two one two four eight nine WMCA is the number for the postgame phone show and we'll start that up in just a couple of minutes.

1977
02:39:50,000 --> 02:39:54,000
Final score here once again, General's 24, Orlando seven.

1978
02:39:54,000 --> 02:40:00,000
We're at Giant Stadium in the Meadowlands and you're listening to the New Jersey General's Football Network.
