Charles Woodson — a football legend and a beloved fan favorite of Raider Nation, had his story told via NFL Network’s “A Football Life” docu-series.
If you haven’t watched the episode, and have the intention of doing so, I wouldn’t recommend reading further.
Woodson’s feet were growing inward as a a child, and he had to wear special shoes to make sure this would not be an issue for him as an adult. And like any loving brother or sister would do, Charles’ siblings would slide him around the house in his special shoes.
The funniest part about the entire episode that was Charles Woodson — one of the most fearless and most fierce competitors the NFL has ever had — was nicknamed “Poochie” by his Mother when he was a kid, because he liked to sing along to the song on TV.
