Get Ready for a Whole Slew of Lawrence Phillips Types...

Well, I think we are now learning what kind of a coach Callahan will be. Seems that Le Kevin Smith is going to play on Saturday despite his recent assault of a UNL parking cadet. We're not privy to the discipline being imposed on Le Kevin, but we're assured it's "appropriate."

Seems that Bill isn't really interested in keeping players out of the game regardless of their behavior. While he was the coach of the Oakland Raiders, he let Sabastian Janikowski play after getting pulled over with a BAL of .20. http://www.sports-smack.com/columns2002/stupid.htm. Janikowski had a history of run-ins with the law at that time, including a few involving the date-rape drug GHB and a few involving fights. http://www.cracksmoker.com/NFL/NFL%20JanikowskiS.htm. But hey, he was a great kicker. They needed him on the field, right?

I guess we'll see how Le Kevin turns out, but hopefully someone will keep an eye on these issues....
