This is not a new blog post. This is merely an addendum to the Vernon Davis story from yesterday. In that story, I mentioned that Davis broke all the weight-lifting records for tight ends at the University of Maryland. But I forgot to list what those records are. You'll notice that Davis still owns all the records, save one. The record for the clean belongs to Tommy Galt. Who's he, you ask? He's the son of the school's long-time strength coach, Dwight Galt. One imagines that he had a Fisher-Price weight bench as a toddler ...
