SUPER BOWL XXVII : The Spotlight : ADD SMITH

Nate Newton, one of the Cowboy offensive lineman who manhandled Smith, said he was well prepared.

“You know that Tums commercial where the catcher is watching Rickey Henderson?” Newton said. “That is what Tony Wise (offensive line coach) did to us all week with Smith. We saw films of him over and over.

“It was ‘Nate, here’s Bruce; Nate, here’s Bruce; Nate, Bruce; Nate, Bruce.’ ”

Newton smiled and added: “After a while, I wanted to slap Wise in the head. But I guess it worked.”
