Weird. I read up on old Lions sometimes and almost posted something about him.
I was also about to say that Luke Staley is headed to hit the 30-mark for surgeries. Dude can barely get out of bed. I remember the hype for him being so high, but I think everyone knew he was run into the ground at BYU already.
