Since you all got bombarded with lockout and CBA talk yesterday, I decided to keep this morning's news and links post mostly about football and/or human interest stories that have absolutely nothing to do with either the NFL lockout or the new proposed CBA. Without any further ado, here are your Wednesday morning Green Bay Packers and NFL news and links.

The linebacking corps is one that has been very strong historically for the Seahawks, or at least in the last 5-10 years anyway, and barring any injuries in 2011, should remain relatively strong.
