Truth or consequences

After Broncos coach Mike Shanahan used a lie detector test on receiver David Kircus — Kircus was trying to avoid being cut by Denver following a barfight — I had to ask Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt if he would do the same to a player.OK, so it was a tongue-in-cheek question. Smiling, Whisenhunt said "I have not used that method before."Chuckling, Whisenhunt added, "To be honest I had not thought about that. You guys (in the media) might want to give me a lie detector (at some point)."What got me about the whole situation was Shanahan’s perfectly serious answer when he was asked if Kircus’ passing of the test was enough of a reassurance to keep him around: "Anybody that wants to go in there and take a lie detector test where his career is based on whether it comes out positive or negative, I’ve got a good feeling."
