SPORTING SCENE You Make The Call In Fantasy Football How many times have you screamed bloody murder at your television set after the coach of your favorite pro football team started a frightened rookie quarterback instead of an expe rienced veteran? How many times have you torched the sports section in disgust after reading the owner of your fa vorite team has just traded a franchise player for two bench-warmers and "future considerations?" If you're like me, you've done both many times. That's one of the most frustrating things about being a football fan. You li of a particular team, all the while having no control over what happens. Welcome to the world of Fantasy Football. Fantasy Football allows self-proclaimed football geniuses such as my self to control the destiny of imaginary franchises. I'm the owner and coach. I decide who gets drafted and traded. I decide who plays. In a nutshell, this is how Fantasy Football works: A draft is held before the season. Franchise owners take turns choosing NFL players they think will score touchdowns or gain lots of yards passing, rushing or receiving. Kickers and defenses also figure in the scoring. Before each weekend, owners look over their rosters and choose who they want to "start" that particular week. Scheduled opponents exchange starting lineups and the team that gets the most points is the winner. Believe it or not, I recently drove 567 miles to participate in my first Fantasy Football draft. I've joined a league with seven friends in the Philadelphia area. Before my trip, I read in a magazine written specifically for Fantasy Footballers that one of the main goals of every owner should be to survive the draft without looking like a fool. Sound advice for us rookie owners. So with that strategy in mind, I headed to Philly to draft my championship team and do everything possible to avoid the "fool" label. The only word I could use to describe the draft is "intense." In fact, it was probably the most pressure I've felt over an extended period of time since I took the SAT. The last thing I wanted to do was draft some dude who had no chance of producing. So for weeks in advance, I studied statistics and took notes to come up with the best players available. Best I can tell, I came out of the draft about as strong as everyone else in the league. Word has it, though, that everybody looks good after the draft. The men aren't separated from the boys until the NFL and Fantasy Football seasons kick off this weekend. If I could have three wishes this season, I'd like to see Jerry Rice score 30 TDs, Rodney Hampton rush for 2,000 yards and John Elway flourish in the new offense in Denver. At the end of the season, I could be $200 richer. Then again, maybe not. ve and die with the success or failure ONE CONTRACTOR FOR THE TOTAL JOB ?

Running back Doug Fuller rushed for 150 yards and scored both Pirate touchdowns on runs of 80 and 33 yards. "Naturally we're disappointed that we didn't win, but I was real pleased with the intensity," Scorpion Coach Gary Baldwin said. "1 thought we hung with them really well." North Brunswick, which did not field a varsity team in 1992, played well defensively against its non-con ference opponent, according to Baldwin. "The defense played well, just giving up a couple of big plays," he said. "We had a lot of people hus tling getting to the football." Baldwin also said the Scorpion offense played well, moving the ball inside the Topsail 20-yard line four limes. "There were times we moved the ball real well but couldn't score." The coach praised the play of the offensive line, which includes three sophomores and one junior. "We're still playing a lot of young kids so 1 have to be real pleased with them." "I was proud of our kids. They played hard," Baldwin added. "Topsail's going to win some ball games." Baldwin said several North play ers were injured in the game. "Topsail has a big team. We got kind of beaten and banged up. We got a lot of injuries, but nothing major." North Brunswick is one of four teams in the Three Rivers 1A/2A Conference that is idle this week. Baldwin said the Scorps can use the week off to recover. "This week off will really help us," the coach said. "We're going to do a lot of work on execution and timing. Hopefully we'll be ready for Dixon." North is scheduled to return to ac lion Sept. 10 against the visiting Dixon Bulldogs. THREE RIVERS CONFERENCE FOOTBALL STANDINGS Team Conf.

South senior fullback Terry Gallo way scored two touchdowns and ju nior halfback O.J. Morris scored one ID while carrying 14 times for 100 yards. It was the second straight year that South Brunswick lost its season opener to the Bulldogs. Coach Bill Hewett takes his Cougars to East Duplin this Friday in search of their first win of 1993. St. Pauls, runners-up to West Brunswick in last year's North Carolina Eastern 2A Championship, will carry a 1-0 record into this week's game against Cape Fear. Coach "Yogi" Hickman's Bull dogs opened the scoring at Boiling Spring Lakes late in the first quarter after recovering a Cougar fumble. St. Pauls drove 57 yards in seven plays. Quarterback Rodriques Thomp son, who completed five of 14 pass es for 56 yards, tossed a 20-yard touchdown strike to wide receiver Scott Ivcy with 35 second left in the period. The extra point attempt failed. ge South Coi St. Pauls increased its lead to 12-0 with 7:52 left in the half. Thompson scored on a quarterback sneak to cap a 10-play, 66-yard drive for the Bulldogs. The two-point conversion attempt was unsuccessful. South Brunswick got on the board just 33 seconds later after returning the ensuing kickoff to the Cougar 37-yard line. On the first play from scrimmage, Morris busted through the middle of the line and bolted 63 yards down the sideline for a touchdown. Oscar Roberts tacked on the extra point. South Brunswick took the lead just before halftime when Bulldog punter Tony Robinson fumbled a snap and the Cougars recovered at the St. Pauls 32-yard line. South quarterback Jeff Simon and receiver Izesta Brown hooked up for a 25-yard pass play that gave the Cougars a first down at the 2-yard line. Galloway scored from the 1 with 3:26 to play. Coach Hewett elected to try for two points, but the run came up short and South took a 13-12 lead into halftime. After a scoreless third period, St. Pauls regained the lead early in the fourth quarter after pinning the Cougars deep in their own territory and taking over possession at the South Brunswick 38-yard line. Robinson, a bruising fullback jgars 20-19 who rushed 26 times for 160 yards, scored from the 3-yard line with 9:30 remaining in the game. Thomp son threw to Darrell Williams for a two-point play after the touchdown. Trailing 20-13, South's Cougars responded with a 10-play, 56-yard scoring drive. Galloway, who rushed for 55 yards, plunged in from the 1 yard line for his second TD of the game with 4:33 remaining. A penalty moved South Bruns wick back 5 yards, and Roberts* ex tra point attempt sailed wide. The Cougars tried an onside kick, but St. Pauls recovered and ran out the clock.
