    On the eve of the NFL draft, commissioner Roger Goodell promised to whack any team leaking confidential information about potential picks. That's not a bad idea for a league beset by enough legal trouble from current players that the face it presents to the public all too often is a mug shot.

    Goodell, to his credit, has wasted little time since taking office trying to polish the NFL's image. He responded to the problem he inherited -- some four dozen players being arrested in a calendar year -- by toughening up the personal-conduct policy and threatening to hold the teams responsible for players' transgressions.
