Inspirational submitted by cjkoho on July 25, 2014, 3:06pm I want to bottle Michael Oher's drive and give it away to people who really need it. Yes, he had a huge leg up, but he had all the seeds of his success hidden away inside himself. He's an upstanding guy, gives a lot of himself (and his money) to charity, and is living a life he can be proud of. Go Ravens!
