On Tuesday, March 27, 2007, ESPN announced that LeBron James and Jimmy Kimmel will host the 2007 ESPY Awards set to air July 15, 2007. I would like to make a case for Charles Woodson to be named the 2007 ESPY “Comeback Player of the Year.”
Before turf toe, “The Tuck Rule”, the shoulder injury, the broken leg and the beat down in Super Bowl XXXVII, Charles Woodson was drafted in the first round, 4th pick overall, in 1998 by the Oakland Raiders. In 1998 , he was name NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, selected to Pro Bowls 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, he should have been in 2007 but I digress, was named All-Pro 3 times (1998-2001 seasons) and the first Raider since 1971 to start in all 16 games.
On April 26, 2006, Charles Woodson signed with the Green Bay Packers, led the NFL with 8 interceptions, a career high, and returned punts and kickoffs.
No finer script could have been written for this Ohio native. From the Big Ten to the Heisman Trophy, the Pros, “Title Town” and yes, second ballot Canton? “You think?”
See you on the Red Carpet!

You should GO to the Espys. Let's work on your plane ticket! :)
But I don't think of LeBron James as much of a host.
I do not see Lebron hosting anything either Zack. I think we should start a fund to send Toni to the ESPYS
