3 of the greatest, from the Greatest NFL franchise!
No doubt these 3 deserve it.
Emmit Smith was always a class act, notwithstanding his alma mater.
As soon as the Cowboys win 12 World Championships....c'mon back and we'll chat.
No mention of the blockers that put them there.
WOW---I am shocked.
Jerry Jones has been so picky about that Ring of Honor...
Actually, I just changed my mind...I am NOT shocked. These were guys from HIS Cowboys...
It is the Cowboys from the Landry era that haven't gotten their fair shake in the Ring of Honor, IMHO..
THAT also goes for Canton...the Cowboys have gotten the short shrift there also.
GO COWBOYS is RIGHT!
Go Cowboys!!! pingggggggggggggggggg
Yep, Michael Irvin and Honor, two things that really go together.
Does Micheal Irvin have the numbers? Aikman really does'nt, but he has the rings. Remember it took forever for Lynn Swann to get in.
Irvins name will have a mirror and straw beside it.
He had his moments, and said he would clean up. As far as I can tell, he has. At least he's not in the news for coke anymore.
Yeah I think Irvin has the numbers, you also have to look at what a threat he posed to defenses every time he lined up. It was the same with Swann. I hate the Steelers with a passion but I always have liked and respected Bradshaw and Swann. Lynn Swann should have been inducted to the Hall a lot earlier.
Probably because he's no longer newsworthy.

You are probably right! :)
"It is the Cowboys from the Landry era that haven't gotten their fair shake in the Ring of Honor, IMHO..

You will get no argument on that from me. I am not a Jerry Jones Fan. The Cowboys could win 20 Super Bowls under his ownership, and I will still dislike the man. I cannot forgive him for the way he treated Tom Landry.
There should have been no way one goes in without the others. They were The Triplets then, and they are The Triplets now. GO COWBOYS!!!!!
Cowboys are .626...5-3....
But let's not get hung up on Super Bowls....a world champtionship is a world championship....and if the Cowboys had won in 1965 (the year before the Super Bowl ever began), you would be bragging about that too....Otherwise, what we are really talking about is the timing of when the Cowboys won a world championship versus when Green Bay won their.
