Cowboys coach Barry Switzer, asked by ABC's Brent Musberger
on his relationship with owner Jerry Jones: "I am sure we will
have our ups and downs. I have no problem with Jerry in certain
areas. If he wants to be involved with certain things in
football, that is fine. But everything that happens on the field,
between those two lines, that is me and the coaching staff and
the players" ("Monday Night Football," ABC, 9/12). Meanwhile,
this morning's PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER reports that Eagles owner
Jeffrey Lurie and Jimmy Johnson dined together on Cape Cod last

ever." Agassi ended the program hitting balls to Dave out on
Broadway (CBS, 9/13).
