Antonio Cromarte Would Fit Lions Needs Perfectly, But...

Don't believe the reports the reason the San Diego Chargers are willing to trade shutdown cornerback Antonio Cromartie - and apparently not for a lot - is because he is not a hard-hitting tackler.
He is a great player, just 25 years old. In 2007, he had 10 interceptions and was a first-team All Pro. He had fewer picks the last two seasons, but teams don't test him. He is a sure-thing as a football talent.
His issue is off-the-field: Cromartie reportedly has fathered seven children with six different mothers in five different states - and has been named in at least five paternity suits.
There are two ways to look at this. One is that Cromartie could be distracted. Another, he will be motivated. That's a lot in child support payments.

Bigot, I still want an apology for the comments about southerners on fox news Sunday night. I'm going to post the video on youtube if you dont take back your comments which directly insulted a large group of people. I dont think it's fair to label people like that.
