"The ball would lie in his arms like a girlfriend," says Tomlinson's younger brother LaVar, 24. "And I can never remember that ball being on the floor." He who fails to fumble in slumber won't cough it up in consciousness. In the crucial area within 20 yds. of the opponent's goal line, Tomlinson has touched the ball more than 400 consecutive times...
