They Said It

? Sam Rutigliano, Cleveland Browns coach, on how to stop Seattle's scrambling quarterback, Jim Zorn: "Well, you could give your outside linebackers hand grenades."

? Johnny Walker, disc jockey at Baltimore radio station WSBR: "The University of Maryland football team members all make straight As. Their Bs are a little crooked."

? Senator William Proxmire (D., Wis.), who has been distributing his Golden Fleece awards to perpetrators of what he considers government waste, after giving one to the Interior Department for putting a $145,000 wave-making machine in the Salt Lake City community swimming pool: "It can be said that for the first time federal bureaucrats are making waves. In the meantime, the taxpayers are getting soaked."
