funny thing happened on the Way to the Coro nation of the Duluth Superior Dukes As Northern league champions the Adirondack for the second game in a the jacks got great pitching and some creative offence to Down the Dukes 50 last night and take a commanding 20 Lead in their Besto five Northern league championship a club that was a serious underdog just a couple of Days finds themselves firmly ensconced in the Dri vers seat As the jacks head Home to Glens this morning with a stranglehold of both this championship series and the and if All this is resonating Back Home in it because it was just last year at this time that an upstart club from the Northern leagues East Ern conference called the Albany Colonie Diamond dogs snuck up on the Winnipeg Gold eyes and swiped their championship rings before anyone realized what was i feel like this is last year right Dukes reliever and former fish Dan Guehne said last night As he glumly watched the jacks celebrate their Vic tory on the Field at Wade municipal Sta its just frustrating right and so it has gone for the Dukes this weekend As Treyve found themselves singled to death by a jacks club that does nothing fancy or even particularly just As do Noth ing that Good enough to win on most nights in the Northern for its a formula that is anchored by a pitching staff that has been dominant against a High powered Dukes lineup that ate Central Confer ence pitching alive this the Dukes also had a six game playoff win Ning Streak until the jacks descended from the skies this the once fearsome Dukes hitters have looked positively tame and that was particularly so last night As former big leaguer Les Lancaster tigers and cardinals from 198793 took off his managers Cap and took the Mound for the As he has a handful of times this while the 38yearolds fastball has lost a few Miles per hour and his breaking Ball Doest have the same bite As it did Back at Wrigley Lancaster showed big league control and an of Speed pitch that was More than enough to silence the Dukes holding them to just six hits and no runs to get the Complete game weve had no respect All Lan Caster said following the we have no flashy players and no standouts but one through nine we just get it Dukes slugger Tony Mitchell want throwing in the Towel weve got another Well play it and see what Mitchell the series shifts to Glens Falls for the beginning tomorrow night with game but the two clubs have some Seri Ous travelling to both teams were scheduled to bus to Minneapolis this Fly to this after noon and then bus to Glens Falls about three hours from the big Apple this everything about Young quarterback is big built like a Culpepper Mitin dates by Alan Greenberg new England patriots defensive tackle Henry Thomas is 275 and 35 years Minnesota Vikings quarterback Daunte Culpepper is 266 pounds and this tells Henry More about his future than game films or Bill Belichick Ever when the quarterbacks Are As big As Thomas its time to first theres the rather Large matter of trying to Stop Culpepper and the Vikings a second year pro from Central was one of six quarterbacks chosen in the first round of the 1999 Tim Donovan Akili Cade Mcnown and Shaun King were the Culpepper didst throw a pass for the Vikings As a Rookie last but even they thought enough of him to let Jeff George and Randall Cunningham its hard not to make a big Deal of everything about him is Hes a Hes a Belichick Hes Hes he runs Over people and Hes got a big Ive been very impressed by the Way he reads most of the you see a Young quarterback on you look at the coverage and you know he be throwing the Ball to that but he throws it any but Culpepper makes Good if defending the pass was the Only the patriots would have enough to worry about since Randy Moss and Cris Carter give Culpepper the Best receiving tandem in the but Culpepper is both bigger and faster than buccaneers fullback Mike and unlike Culpep per has the element of Surprise on his having him in a game is like hav ing six Belichick because if there he youve got to cover youve got to account for tackling him is an getting him on the ground is definitely an he shrugs people you see a Guy tracking you think Hes got the Hes going to get and Culpepper just out runs the thing that separates him from other quarterbacks is his the titans Steve Mcnair is he makes Guys this Guy just Flat outruns some nil people see Culpepper and other members of the Quarter Back class of 1999 As prototypes for the future As pocket passers such As Drew Bledsoe but Viking coach Dennis Green says Culpepper is unique if Only because i dont know if there will be too Many quarterbacks Over Culpepper threw for Only 188 Yards in the Vikings opening 3027 Victory Over the but he had runs of 24 and 21 Yards to keep alive scoring Dri he ran eight times for 37 Yards and completed 23 of 37 passes for 355 Yards three one to in last weeks 137 Victory Over the he says he has always been very big and
