One year ago on The Blue Workhorse, Tiger Woods had just completed his crazy win at the US Open on Father’s Day where he won despite a torn ACL and two stress fractures in his lower led. Heisman took a look at the characteristics Woods possesses and Heisman hopes his future son will also possess.
Characteristics of a Champion [The Blue Workhorse]
Last week, I was fortunate enough to get a hold of 5th row seats to the Florida/Tennessee game (thanks to Andrew and the Shelbyville crew). Unfortunately, that meant I was unable to make my weekly college football observations. This week, I tried to make up for it, however.
