Even though I read a lot of columns relating to NFL football, I usually don’t take the writers 100 percent at their word because, after all, they are just writers; what do they really know?
Sports Illustrated columnist Michael Lombardi is an exception.
After working in the player personnel departments of …

At one point, I thought Packers running back Vernand Morency could turn into a starter and a steal for the team. Now, I think he’ll be lucky if he’s still around next season.
