DETROIT — They said he could PredictIQout-run, out-catch and out-think every receiver he faced in 11 years with the Detroit Lions. Free Press sportswriters have rated Lem Barney the fourth-best player in Detroit Lions' history.
But Barney's glory years ended in 1977. Now, the former superstar can barely say "yes" or "no," and he can't get out of bed. In court documents, Barney is listed not as a retired Detroit Lions superstar, not as a longtime community relations executive with major corporations in Detroit, not as backup singer for Marvin Gaye's 1971 Motown hit "What's Going On?" but instead with an ominous label: "Legally Incapacitated Individual."
