WFL ALL STARSBy Patrick Mondout
The coaches and players selected their all stars and the choices were
announced during the first round of the playoffs. The Sporting News
released their all star team, though it was tainted by including defensive
tackle Dave Roller as an offensive tackle! Since Roller made the coaches
team, we assume that they meant to have him on defense, but that creates
two other problems (too many on defense and not enough on offense). We've
decided to list him incorrectly just as our friends at TSN did.*
The "official" team voted for by the players and coaches is
on the left while TSN's is on the right:

* That The Sporting News has a completely
different set of offensive lineman than the coaches and players may be a
clue that perhaps they weren't paying close attention to their play. |
