    Nebraska QB Broke Fibula

    Nebraska QB Broke Fibula

    I remember stories about Lombardi from Jerry Kramer's book. The players called hm the "Great Healer." I guess that he had no empathy for broken fibulas, "that bone doesn't support weight!" IIRC it was Lionel Aldridge who broke his fibula and Lombardi had him jogging at practice 12 days later...

    Mark Sanchez story

    IIRC he was charged with rape while at USC, but the case was either tossed or he was found not guilty. Again this is just a memory and not necessarily a fact.
