IRVING, Texas -- For Charles Woodson and the Green Bay Packers, the arrival to Super Bowl XLV wasn't nearly as grandiose as the announcement that they'd be coming.
And not just to Dallas, either -- all the way to Washington D.C.
"It was spur of the moment," Woodson said Monday as the Packers commenced their media commitments with their opening news conference at the Omni Mandalay-Las Colinas. "It was to have a little fun. I'm not surprised it got a little air time."
The All-Pro cornerback sent a message, first to his team, then to -- get this -- President Barack Obama in the postgame celebration following Green Bay's emotional road victory over the rival Chicago Bears in the NFC championship game. Woodson and the Packers took note of Obama vowing to attend the Super Bowl if his beloved Bears got there.
