It was a brand new week and the Pirates were fired up to bounce back after last week's heartbreaker loss to Floresville. And Sinton were certianly fired up after caging the Goliad Tigers with a score of 23-13 in Tiger Stadium.

In theaters these were considered new this week

Blue Monkey
Deadly Illuison
Weeds
Zombie Nightmare

On the charts these were new and fresh

"Betcha Say That" by Gloria Estafan and The Miami Sound Machine
"No One In The World" by Anita Baker
"Come On, Let's Go" by Los Lobos
"I Won't Forget You" by Poison

And a new champion was crowned in the #1 spot "U Got The Look' by Prince who knocked off Lisa Lisa And The Cult Jam's "Lost In Emotion" to the #2 spot and Europe's "Carrie moved up to #3 from the #4 spot.
