What is the difference between:
1. A cornerback and a wide receiver? It seems that they would have identical sets of skills and abilities, and one player should play both sides of the ball.
2. Right and left ends, OLB's, tackles, guards, etc? What makes a player better on one side than the other?
3. Kickers and punters: once in a great while, you can see a kicker do punts, but you never see a punter do kicks. What's so hard about doing both? Also, why do kickers always do kickoffs? I'm sure there's been situations where the punter has a stronger leg. Also, if the punter gets injured, the kicker can fill in, but whenever the kicker gets injured, a position player who used to do it in college or high school or something fills in.
4. MLB's and OLB's: are their skills that much different? or, is it a size/strength/speed issue?
