400 Pounds Of Running Back

A tiny Washington high school is home to perhaps the largest running back anywhere in the country -- amateur or professional. At 400 pounds, Tony Picard racked up 576 yards rushing and seven touchdowns this year at Whie Swan High School. Story here. (AP Photo/Yakima Herald-Republic, Andy Sawyer)
