Charles Woodson article on ESPN.com
Here's a cool article they're running on one of the all-time greats:

It chronicles his rebirth as a premiere NFL player, as well as his off the field charity. And it says he should win NFL DPOY, which would be awesome. Woodson's the man.

It is truly remarkable how high his level of play is at 33 - as a corner none the less! Even better a person. GO Blue!

That in conjunction with the OTL article on alumni endowments centered on Braylon Edwards, a great day to witness what Michigan, on and off the playing fields, is truly all about.
Added Rodgers on Woodson: "I don't mean to offend anybody by saying this but he's the best football player I've ever seen in person. I've never seen anybody dominate a position the way he has."
Pretty strong words from a damn good player himself.
Also, has RR extended Charles Jr. a scholarship offer yet?

Honestly, that part kind of blew my mind. Jesus, has it been that long already?? I remember watching every game of his as a freshman, and a bunch of us huddled around the dorm room TV watching the Heisman presentation. Just doesn't seem like 12 years ago...

I was a junior. God, I've completely wasted the last 12 years.
December 24th, 2009 at 5:44 PM ^
...and still is.
Charles, will you marry me?

Gotta love that every 5th comment or so is an SEC fan complaining about how Manning was jobbed back in '97.
Dude, it was 12 years ago. You lost. Get over it.

Wouldn't it be awesome if Woodson won the NFL MVP award over Manning. My life would be complete.
December 24th, 2009 at 8:31 PM ^
The NFL MVP award would be thrown to Peyton Manning and Woodson would leap into the air, stick one hand up, snag it down (keeping a foot in bounds), and claim what is rightly his.

I have a man-crush on Charles Woodson

You wouldn't be a true Michigan fan if you didn't.
