The staff of the National Archives in Kansas City Chiefs

"You get a sense of where the priorities of the country were at the time," Spence said.

Leavenworth Penitentiary was the largest maximum-security federal prison in the United States from 1903 until 2005, when it became a medium-security prison.

And not all the inmates were men. Nor were they always adults.

Lizzie Cardish, 15 at the time, was sentenced to life in prison for arson in 1906. She was later transferred to the nearby state prison in Lansing, where her sentence was eventually commuted by President Theodore Roosevelt.

The exhibit, which will be up until Aug. 7, makes a statement about the danger of stereotyping. It shows a series of mug shots and asks visitors to match the face with the crime they think the convict committed.

The exhibit includes the names and bios of numerous celebrity inmates.

One says, "I was a running back for four NFL teams in the 1990s, including the Kansas City Chiefs. Who am I?"

Answer: Bam Morris, who was sentenced to 30 months in Leavenworth for drug trafficking in 2000.

George "Machine Gun" Kelly served three years in Leavenworth for smuggling alcohol.

Boxing champ Jack Johnson was sentenced to a year in Leavenworth for violating the Mann Act.

Robert Stroud, the "Birdman of Alcatraz," was incarcerated in Leavenworth.

 

First, the credibility of your preview is weakened when you misspell the name of a player (Corey Mays, but to their credit, they later spelled it correctly). Second, this is the first time I've seen Mays referred to as a core part of the defense. Is he important? At times, yes. But when talking about linebackers should he be the second one mentioned? I, along with many others, would strongly argue against that.

 

The article later suggests Williams will "probably" lose his job to Jovan Belcher (And it's Jovan, not Javon). While that's certainly possible, suggesting that will "probably" happen is a big leap.

 

Number two:

  

  End Glenn Dorsey was drafted fifth over all in 2008.  Tyson Jackson was drafted third over all in 2009. Playing next to  nose tackle Ron Edwards, both miscast ends have been feeble anchors in this Patriot-esque scheme. This is the prime reason the Kansas City Chiefs ranked 31st in run defense and total sacks last season.

Suggesting Tyson Jackson is "miscast" as a 3-4 defensive end is a little misleading. Coming out of college, it was unanimous that he was one of the top two 3-4 defensive ends available. In fact, that was considered his best position, even though he played defensive tackle in LSU's 4-3 defense.

 

Number three:

   

 Every other front seven position is occupied by a passing down specialist. Gilberry and Magee fill the defensive end spots; Belcher and swift-running Derrick Johnson come in at inside linebacker, and fifth-round rookie Cameron Sheffield (an undersized defensive end at Troy) will likely replace Vrabel on the outside.

The Lions are still trying to find a safety that is good enough to start alongside Louis Delmas, and that search has them looking at Kansas City Chief Jarrad Page, according to Arrowhead Pride.

    Per a league source, the Lions expressed interest in Page but the Chiefs aren't biting.

    The connection to the Lions shouldn't come as a surprise. Defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham was on staff when Page was drafted so he knows him well. Earlier in the offseason, Cunningham said of the young Chiefs, "I would like to be there to catch a lot of them, because I know a couple of those guys."
