Large numbers of Europeans believe the timetable for war is driven not by Iraq's behavior but by the U.S. desire to attack before Iraq's desert weather heats up to make warfare more...

But to the 1,000 or more fiercely partisan fans who cram old Fritz Pfluger's renovated cow pasture for each home game, they seem as good as the pros. Since 1958 they have scored 2,073 points to the opposition's 223, and it looks as if it may be Pflugerville über alles forever. Toddlers practice cross-body blocks under the goal posts while the high-schoolers pummel their opponents...
