I go back a long, long way... Older than dirt, some have said.

I watched the Colts-Giants "Sudden Death" NFL Championship on black & white TV and was cheering on Baltimore's win. They were originally the Dallas Texans of 1952 who played the last part of their season on the road as the Cotton Bowl was empty when they did play.

I was a Colts fan until the Cowboys and AFL Texans came along in 1960. I was more of a Texans fan that Cowboys... Hey, the Texans won!

Over the years, I have seen more than my share of Cowboy's Haters. There are a covey of them here on FR. But that doesn't mean I glory in it. It is just the way it is.

JeffAtlanta in post 36 hits the nail squarely. The problem is that there are too many 1970's Steelers in the HOF. i.e. It is not that most of these Steelers were not very good players, the Hall should have only great players in it.

That I can agree on!

Thanks. I think that voters have come to their senses since that time but it still causes problems. Because of Lynn Swann's induction, every receiver that has good but not great career numbers but has a few big catches in big games can say "well Lynn Swann is in the HOF and he didn't have great numbers."

The same can be said of big name role players on any dynasty. Moose Johnson and Ken Norton could make the same claims.
