Why in God's name would Charles Woodson turn down two Super Bowl contenders to join an NFL bottom feeder? Well if the saying is still true, “once you go Silver and Black, you never leave the pack.” Woodson spurned the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Bronco

Reaching lofty goals can be next to impossible (like President Obama’s “promises”), but creating them are a useful practice for self-improvement. The Oakland Raiders went 4-12 in 2012 (tying for the third-worst record in the NFL), so the team could surely
