Perry Aims for Flexibility in Bears Weight Plan
Bears top draft pick William Perry says weight clauses don’t bother him as he maneuvers between 300 and 390 pounds. He notes he weighs 318 now and can shed pounds with diet and daily exercise, explaining his nickname came from his tackling style rather than eating habits. Ballesteros will miss the MONY Tournament of Champions after a prior commitment. Chris Evert Lloyd named Greatest American Woman Athlete of the Last 25 Years. Birmingham approves a $1 million aid to save the Stallions. Germany tops Finland 5-4 in World Championship relegation play.
