Pat Tillman loved playing football —- he called it “ballin’”. Anyone who knew Pat Tillman or went “ballin’” with Pat Tillman knew and understood the three qualities he epitomized:
determination
humbleness/selflessness
As Cardinals’ coaches, players and fans well know, Pat Tillman’s locker in the Cardinals clubhouse remains intact.
Perhaps more than ever this year, Pat Tillman’s presence in the clubhouse and on the field will be most keenly felt.
The reason is —- this off-season the Cardinals have been building their roster by virtue of a coefficient that could be best described as “The Tillman Test.”
