I find it interesting how the media invents character traits of the players in the draft. Look at the following:
D. Williams = PFW says he is a wimp bcs he didn't play against Ten. Knee sprain?
L. White = Lazy bcs he has a torn hammy and put on pounds.
B. Capenter = bad team mate bcs PFW says so.
It is interesting that none of these issues existed while these guys were playing ball in college. Their coaches and majority of team mates never mention this stuff. I think it is a shame for a media person to be so hungry that they may take a situation and blow the character of a player through one small event. Just because on writer for PFW wrote an article claiming character issues, that article does not become the Gospel. It doesn't have to be true. We don't have to believe it. These people get paid to write, and some invent stories to provoke their readers.
Don't believe everything you read. I will grant LW is fat right now. High metabolism when not working out due to a legit injury? Possibly. Ever had this problem in 4 years at USC? NO! The point is "Do the research yourself & then make a conclusion." Don't just believe one source. Look at the history.
