Yahoo! Sports tries out innovative new journalistic technique of just making stuff up.

A Yahoo! Sports headline screams:  “Packers’ Kampman appears unhappy with move to LB.”

So, why does Yahoo! Sports think Kampman is unhappy?  Allow them to explain:

“There’s always a learning curve,” said Kampman.”

I wonder what their headline would be if Kampman had actually made a quote indicating any unhappiness whatsoever.  “Kampman threatens to kill Ted Thompson?”

Offseason Update: Dom Capers Hired as D-Coordinator

Despite the fact that both Winston Moss and Mike Nolan were touted as sure hires for the job by the incredibly insightful consistently wrong Mike Lombardi, neither find themselves in the position of Packers defensive coordinator.  That job belongs to Dom Capers, former defensive coordinator of the Dolphins, Steelers, and Jaguars and “special assistant” to Bill Belichik in New England.

Capers has always used 3-4 defensive schemes, so Green Bay will probably be the latest NFL team to utilize this 4-linebacker look.
