I C2 THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 10. 1992 SD LOS ANGELES CHARGERS UPDATE MORNING BRIEFING NOTEBOOK T.J, SIMERS Former SDSU Receiver Claiborne Earns Promotion; Stanley Released SAN DIEGO Check the list of players who had no shot at making the Chargers' 47-man roster, and you will find Robert Claiborne's name at the top. The former San Diego State wide receiver signed with the Chargers as a free agent this off-season and began to climb the depth chart. Coach Bobby Ross on Wednesday informed Claiborne that his journey had taken a successful turn.

The Chargers elected to release wide receiver Walter Stanley after reaching an injury settlement with him on his ailing eye: then they announced they were going to promote Claiborne from their developmental team to the 47-man roster. Claiborne will have to pass through waivers and avoid being claimed by one of the other 27 teams before officially joining the Chargers. Once he clears, however, he will be closer to making his NFL debut. "I'm very happy; this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Claiborne said. "I hope to take full advantage of it." Claiborne went to practice Wednesday without knowing the team had decided to activate him.

After practice, he was told that Ross wanted to see him, which initially made him nervous, but then he was advised the news was good. "I can't wait to call my mom and tell her," said Claiborne, who attended Mt. Miguel High before moving on to Grossmont Junior College, Southwestern Community College and SDSU. Tackle Btoderlck Thompson will undergo tests today to determine the extent of injuries to his chest after suffering a severe blow Sunday. "It's gotten worse," Thompson said.

"There is some fear they want to check if there has been lung or heart damage." Thompson missed practice Wednesday and Ross said he is "very, very questionable" for Sunday's game with Denver. Leo Goeas will replace Thompson, and David Richards will move from guard to tackle in the event Goeas or left tackle Harry Swayne is injured. Mike Zandofsky would then replace Richards at right guard. Ross had better news regarding running back Marion Butts, who was listed earlier in the day as questionable with a knee injury. Ross said Butts practiced without any problem and will be ready to go.

Richards made a quick trip to Minneapolis on Monday to make an appearance at the closing arguments in the Freeman McNeil antitrust lawsuit against the NFL. Richards, a plaintiff in the case, stands to earn a sizable settlement if a jury of eight women rules in favor of the players. "I think we'll win. I feel good about it," Richards said. "If we win it will change the system, which is the most important thing.

They will have to treat us as people, not like things." The Broncos listed starting safety Stove Atwater (ankle) and starting center Keith Kartz (calf) as questionable. Both players missed the season opener with the Raiders. The Broncos also listed tight end Reggie Johnson (shoulder) as questionable. Give me a James E. Sefton, professor of history at Cal State Northridge, recalls January, 1958, when the student body submitted nominations for the school nickname: "Among the nominees were Atom Splitters, Aeolians, Chmultapultapecs, Desert Rats, Fernandoes, Roughriders, Sun-dogs, Sun Worshipers, Valkyries, Yogis, Friars, Helians, Hustlers, Llamas, Minotaurs, Outcasts, and Phaetons." The school chose Matadors, reasoning that newspaper headline writers couldn't deal with Chmultapultapecs.

GerOnimO: John Robinson, former Ram coach, on the difference between broadcasting and coaching: "As a broadcaster, all you hope for is a close, exciting game, go to the airport, hop on a plane, ask for a drink and dinner and that's it. "As a coach, you think about all those things, except now you are on the plane, looking for the best place to jump from once you are in the air." NO respect: CBS-TV announcer Tony Trabert called Jim Courier's straight-set U.S. Open victory over John McEnroe a "shellacking of a senior citizen." Trivia answer: use, in 1972. QuOtebOOk: CBS-TV commentator Ben Wright, on Duffy Waldorf's red-and-white striped shirt at an earlier golf tournament: "He's wearing a rugby shirt, which I applaud him for, but it looks like he's about to deliver a pizza." -MAL FLORENCE You Can't Get in, Something Might Get Out Dallas Cowboy Coach Jimmy Johnson zealously guards his private life, yet he granted a rare interview in his home to Barry Horn of the Dallas Morning News. "Most people think they know me," Johnson said.

"I like it to be that way. Let them think. But I can't let people know me. I don't want people to ever know me well enough to predict what I will do. That way I always remain in control." Add Johnson: His hobby is maintaining the seven saltwater fish tanks he has in his home.

"The fish they may be the perfect things for him to have around the house," said Johnson's son, Brent. "If he had a dog or a cat they might bug him, expect something from him in return. The fish they don't want to know him. They leave him alone." Trivia time: Name the last Pacific 10 Conference football team to finish first in the final Associated Press poll. Bring on the clowns: Atlanta Falcon Coach Jerry Glanville is not popular among some of his peers because of his public feuds.

The latest coach to lash out at Glanville is Cleveland Brown Coach Bill Belichick. "Glanville is too busy promoting himself to have a lot of production in his career from a Jimmy Johnson team standpoint," Belichick told Pro Football Weekly. "After coaching, he'll be a prime candidate to take over Ringling Bros, and Barnum Bailey circus." Priorities: Lou Duva, heavyweight champion Evander Ho-lyfield's co-trainer and co-manager, told the Boston Globe: "We have options on all the top heavyweights but Mike Tyson. The state of Indiana has options on Tyson." Tyson is serving a six-year sentence for rape. Pen(n) State? In recent weeks, five Penn State football players have been jailed, prompting a campus joke: "How many Penn State players does it take to screw in a light bulb? None.

They have to get a guard to change it for them." AUCTION KENNEDY-WILSON, INC 91 RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES IN CALIFORNIA CHARGERS Continued from CI this season." Phillips reacted with shock to Beathard's pronouncement. He had decided to accept Beathard's two-year proposal, he said, but he had failed to inform Beathard of his decision in time. "I accepted the deal," Phillips said. "But I guess I called in three or four minutes late. It's my daughter's birthday and I was sitting with a bunch of kids trying to make a very tough decision.

"I was trying to find time to talk to my wife. Now this it's beyond me. If my hesitation cost me an opportunity to play, I guess the only person at fault is me." After hearing of Beathard's announcement from a reporter that he would not be allowed to play for the team, Phillips tried to contact Beathard. He failed, and he also was unable to reach any of Beathard's top lieutenants. Phillips then attempted to reach Beathard via Lee Hamilton on XTRA radio Wednesday night during the "Talk to the Chargers" segment.

Hamilton told Beathard that Phillips was holding on another line and that Phillips wished to plead his case with Beathard on the air. Beathard declined. "The deadline is over," Beathard said. "The Joe Phillips affair is over." The Chargers presented Phillips' agents a two-year contract proposal Wednesday morning and attached a 4 p.m. take-it-or-leave-it deadline.

The team offered to pay Phillips a base salary of $200,000 this season with the opportunity earn additional money in incentives. The Chargers' offer also called for a second year and a base pay of $550,000. Phillips earned a base salary of $485,000 last year more than $600,000, including incentives. "It was a big decision," Phillips said. "It was a lot less money, but the biggest thing was the second year of the thing.

Was I willing to commit myself to the Chargers for two years? I came up with the answer, Phillips, however, took too much time to make his decision, and the Chargers ran out of patience. Beathard said the team received a call at 4:05 from Phillips' agent requesting more time. The club extended the deadline 15 minutes then made it an hour. But when they received no response, Beathard withdrew the offer and eliminated Phillips from the team's plans. Beathard said, "It's hard to imagine, that with something as important as this, he wasn't avail-; able.

The deadline was ignored. We went an extra hour and got to the point where we said, 'That's Beathard said the team will not consider giving Phillips his outright release until the end of the season, thereby forcing him to remain the property of the team without pay. "I think he hurt the team," Beathard said. "If teams are inter-; ested in him they can call us. But then that's been the case since he began holding out and there hasn't been any real interest." If Phillips is to win his freedom by a trade, a deal must be completed by 1 p.m.

Oct. 13. If not, his rights remain the Chargers throughout the rest of the season. It appears that Phillips and his representatives misjudged Beathard's irritation and his concern about Phillips' state of mind. Beathard and Coach Bobby Ross discussed Phillips' situation several times in the past few days.

Not wanted him back, al- though the team continues to have a pressing need at defensive tackle. Ross and Beathard agreed to make a financial pitch, but they did so with the proviso that Phillips, a six-year veteran and a starter since 1987, demonstrate his com-' mitment to the team by signing a two-year deal. Phillips and his representatives should have expected as much, but I they appeared surprised by the move. They continued to operate under the belief that the Chargers could not go on this season without Phillips. They pushed Beathard too far.

Beathard was asked if there was something that might change his mind to provide Phillips the chance to still return this season. "I can't think of any," Beathard said. Beathard has changed his mind in the past after declaring a negoti-; ation finished, but he said, "This is different." What about Phillips' future with the team? "It doesn't look like there is one," Beathard said. "We're going to put this behind us now and concentrate on Denver. We have -the team to think about, and Joe will not be with us."
