Ontheair the regular-season finale against Detroit, and coach George Seifert let him re- lieve Steve Young, who had led the Niners to 13-2 and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Montana threw for two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to help the Niners pull away. Though Seif- ert never had any doubt that Young was his man in the playoffs, the quar- terback's lackluster per- formances — 227 yards, three fumbles and a pick in a win over Washington, then two fourth-quarter in- terceptions in a 30-20 loss for Dallas — left room for second-guessing and paved Montana's way out of San Fran and over to Kansas City. VAN BROCKLIN VS. WA- TERFIELD A first-of-its- kind, and maybe the only time it worked. Through- out 1950 and 1951, Rams coach Joe Stydahar made a practice of alternating his two talented quarter- backs, Norm Van Brock- lin and Bob Waterfield, ev- ery quarter. It was widely documented in Los Ange- les, and though the absur- dity of the situation didn't escape anyone, in this case, it worked. The Rams went 18-8 over the two seasons, led the league by a wide margin in passing both years, went to the title game twice and won it in 1951 with Waterfield throwing for 125 yards and Van Brocklin for 128. Quandaries FROM PAGE 1 cons (0-4) at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Shasta Lake. SUTTER 3, CORNING 2 The Lady Cardinals fell to the Sutter Huskies 3-2 Tuesday afternoon at home. The Huskies' goals came from Julia Tarke, Courtney Spain and Alyssa McCurry and goaltender Lacy Lan- dis made 12 saves. As of 4 p.m. Thursday no stats were posted for the Cardinals. The Cardinals (3-5) are scheduled to travel to the Central Valley Falcons (0- 3) on Tuesday for a 6 p.m. match. Soccer FROM PAGE 1 son, and no center fielders in the upper tier of the Gi- ants minor league system, the club sought to shop while they had choices on the open market. Span will make $10.3 million per season and his contract also includes per- formance bonuses. With that kind of salary, it's ex- pected that Span will play an everyday role — likely atop the lineup and in cen- ter, with Pagan and Blanco complementing each other in left field. The outfield market has been slow to develop, with Dexter Fowler, Yoe- nis Cespedes and Justin Upton still expected to receive major multiyear contracts. But Alex Gor- don's decision to return to the Kansas City Royals set things in motion ear- lier this week. It was thought that Span could get lost in the shuf- fle amid all those other outfielders, but his cen- ter field defense was what the Giants most needed — enough to where he com- manded more than a one- year contract to prove his health. He won't need a bounce- back year to go back into free agency. He's already bouncing well enough, as that video he posted clearly shows. "I'm jus sayin," was how Span captioned it. Giants FROM PAGE 1 receive a minimum of 80 percent of the votes cast by the selection panel. A maxi- mum of eight inductees are allowed per year. The ultimate gun-sling- ing quarterback, Favre led the Packers to the 1996 NFL championship and was a three-time league MVP. He retired as the NFL's leading passer with 6,300 completions, 10,169 attempts, 71,838 yards and 508 touchdowns. Owens played for five teams in his 16 pro sea- sons, making the Super Bowl with the 2004 Ea- gles. He ranks second in yards receiving (15,934), third in touchdown recep- tions (153) and set a then- record for catches in a sin- gle game with 20 against the Bears in 2000. Faneca was one of the NFL's best blockers for 13 seasons and 206 games, making the All-Decade Team of the 2000s. A six- time All-Pro, he anchored the offensive lines of the Steelers, Jets and Cardi- nals, winning one Super Bowl. Andersen is the career scoring leader with 2,544 points in 25 seasons for five teams. He also is tops in field goals (565), and games played (382), and his 40 field goals of 50-plus yards were the most in NFL his- tory at his retirement in 2004. He was voted to two All-Decade Teams (1980s and 1990s). Among the other final- ists, Dungy rebuilt the moribund Tampa Bay fran- chise, then won the 2007 Super Bowl with Indianap- olis, the first black coach to win the NFL champion- ship. The other coaching fi- nalist is Coryell, whose of- fense (Air Coryell) was the most potent of its day. Con- sidered an innovator in the passing game, Coryell was 111-83-1 with the Cardinals and Chargers in 14 seasons. Harrison starred for Dungy with the Colts and had 1,102 receptions for 14,580 yards and 128 touch- downs, making the All-De- cade Team of the 2000s. He had 59 100-yard games. James was a teammate of Harrison's in Indianap- olis, and also played for Arizona and Seattle. The 1999 Offensive Rookie of the Year, he was a seven- time 1,000-yard rusher and won two rushing crowns. Davis is one of seven players to gain 2,000 yards in a season, rush- ing for 2,008 in 1998. He scored 22 touchdowns on the ground that year and was the league's MVP. Da- vis won two Super Bowls with Denver. Atwater was another Broncos standout, a hard- hitting safety for 10 sea- sons, also winning NFL ti- tles in 1997 and 1998. And another safety among the finalists, Lynch played for the Broncos following an 11-season stint in Tampa Bay, where he won one Su- per Bowl. Lynch was an integral part of the Bucs' shutdown Tampa-2 de- fense. Jacoby, one of the stal- warts of the Hogs, Wash- ington's outstanding offen- sive line that helped win three Super Bowls, made the 1980s All-Decade Team at tackle. Pace was a dom- inant tackle for the Rams for 10 seasons, winning one Super Bowl. He was the top selection in the 1997 draft and made five All-Pro teams. Pace blocked for Warner when the quarterback, who had been stocking grocery shelves while trying to get an NFL job, led the Rams to the 1999 championship. Warner won two league MVP awards, and also guided Arizona to its only Super Bowl appearance af- ter the 2008 season. Greene was one of the NFL's top sackmas- ters from 1985-97 for four teams. He finished his ca- reer with 160 sacks, third on the career list when he retired, and made the 1990s All-Decade Team.
