That is what is go great about this forum, there are people all over with poetry and thoughts that just pop up on a night like this, and we can share them.
I'm glad you said that about Irvin and the Hall of Fame, the sports talk here is that the people in the Dallas area are in favor of it, but we don't know how much his reputation at that really bad time of his life would hurt his chances nationwide.
Don't get me started on anti Cowboys bias. I'm not holding my breath for Irvin even though he clearly deserves it. I was beside myself that they screwed Bob Hayes and Rayfield Wright last year, especially Bob. Ditto Drew Pearson, Howley, Jordan, Harris, Renfro.
Pales in comparison to events like tonight's but burns me nonetheless.
