MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The Houston Oilers and the Memphis and Shelby County
Sports Authority signed a letter of agreement Wednesday to bring the
team here for the next two seasons.
Under the deal, the Tennessee Oilers - which they will be called for at
least this year - will make Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium their
temporary home during the 1997 and 1998 seasons.
The Oilers would then settle into a 67,000-seat stadium being built in
Nashville and paid for by a mixture of state bonds and funds from sales
of personal seat licenses.
The team's letter to the national sports magazine stated:
``Your article implies that those of us from Indiana, Illinois and Ohio
should have avoided coming to Indiana. ... Those of us who are from
outside of this area knew the tradition of Indiana basketball, and
that's what attracted us to the program.
``There is not one of us who regrets the decision we made in coming to
Indiana.''
Larkin struggling with just a .248 average because of inflammation in
the Achilles' tendon and a bursa sac in the heel. He had a cortisone
shot during spring training, but the pain returned soon into the season.
A police spokesman had declined Wednesday to discuss specifics against
Willie Bell Sublet Jr., 37, beyond saying he was accused of tampering
with a witness.
But The Dallas Morning News reported today that Sublet came under
investigation three weeks ago when police were told that Sublet offered
the girl ``a considerable sum of money'' to stop cooperating with
authorities.
