Gov. William Donald Schaefer yesterday suggested that the hapless Washington Redskins may be suffering from something beyond the control of players and coaches: the curse of Baltimore.
Schaefer, a passionate advocate for returning Baltimore to the NFL, predicted that the Redskins would not win another game until team owner Jack Kent Cooke stops opposing a team in Baltimore.
Meanwhile, Gov.-elect Parris N. Glendening yesterday reiterated his opposition to the Redskins building a stadium in Laurel, saying such structures should be built in city centers.
"I am going to work to bring an NFL team to Baltimore. I would do whatever possible to bring an NFL team here," Glendening said.
