The Custodians

I have been doing this long enough to have written off men like R. Moore, who was undrafted out of Cutler Bible, signed the Tuesday after for the minimum. 166 yards is the league's way of saying nothing is settled. Two of them found the end zone, in game 9 of his season. The ones who arrive like this tend to know what it cost. That is usually worth something in December.

This story ran on the wire in week 14 of 1983. The rest of the season is in the paper.
