Emmitt Smith:"cowboys should never let this redskins"

[WillH]

On the same note isn't Philly the favorite for next week at this point?

I think thats a bit of a stretch, but I guess its in Philly . . .

Emmitt Smith is only where he is because of those massive offensive linemen he had in Dallas I could rush for 100 a game behind that line, and I only plaid football 1 year.. Hiis opinion means nothing when he talks it's usually a commercial for me, But people need to realize that no matter what the records are (as with many rivalries) you throw them out on Redskins-Cowboys games...

[SFREDSKIN]

Must the weird beard!! When Emmitt does those horrible commercials, he's such a bad actor as he is a broadcaster. HE SUCKS!!! Aikman on the other hand, is a fair announcer and was the only cowboy I've liked, a classy guy.

So is Troy Aikman who had to commentate for the entire game and not once did he speak with bias. Emmitt Smith needs to grow up and at least try to be a decent commentator. Right now ESPN has a lot of people on the payroll right now that really don't belong in the booth. Guys like Keyshawn, Emmitt, and Hodge. By the same token I have tremendous respect for Jaws, TJ, and Floyd Reese.

With that said I think we're getting to much respect this week.

OMG a hall a famer Cowboy hates the Redskins, who cares what he has to say. I hope we are favored to lose the rest of the year, because that only makes us want to come out and win like we did last week.

i care because he is a commentator who is supposed to be non bias.aikman is fair,is it too much to ask for emmitt to be?

[dannyboy1983]

I agree about aikman. He is very classy.

Smith on the other hand, great football player, dumb person.

[SmootSmack]

Just as a follow up to this; Emmitt this morning said the Redskins have to be considered the 2nd best team (after the Giants) in the NFC East after taking care of the Cowboys in Texas Stadium. He praised their effective running game and said they are passing very well. Strong praise for Campbell. He added that with the talent the Cowboys have they should be much better than they showed, but credit goes to the Redskins for handling their business.

Sounds like Emmitt calmed down a bit and came to his senses. Just more proof that he's a big Cowboys homer.

[SkinzzFan]

Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin are both pro-Cowboy in their analysis, which tarnishes their credibility. With that said, I used to mute the TV when Irvin talked (although you could still see the smoke cloud come out of his mouth from his most recent hit on the crack pipe) and I definitely mute it when Emmitt talks. Emmitt has trouble articulating his words which makes his analysis laughable. My issue is not that they are former Cowboys (Troy Aikman is one of my favorite announcers), my issue is they are far too biased to analyze football on the national stage. They belong on a Cowboy talk show in Dallas (of course the same could be said about most of the ESPN team).

HAIL!!

[johnerotten]

i can't believe ESPN keeps hiring and retaining these ex jocks as commentators.michael irvin,and emmitt are both awful on their best days.chris carter sounds way to uppity and thinks his opinion is better than everybody else's is,and don't get me started on ismael.
as bad as golic and stinky are at times,they look like the best in the field compared to the guys mentioned above.of all the ones on the other networks that are in studio hosts,the one who always tells it like it is would be shannon sharpe.and i love james brown and kurt menefee.howie long,jimmy johnson,marino,and cowher can all go to hell as far as i'm concerned.

[doughtydoubter]

ehhh aikman and theisman are the best

Question for you. Where would Riggins legacy have been without the Hogs? He did play for the Jets before he played for the Skins, why didn't he shine then? Here's the answer. The Hogs, that big offensive line right? Why is it different for Smith then?

People trip me out when they make comments like "they wouldn't be where they are without that offensive line". If it weren't for a great O-line, their would be no Art Monk, J. Riggins, Sanders, Clark, no SB wins, Gibbs, and you certainly wouldn't know who Joe Bugel was anymore. He wouldn't be relevant.

HAIL!!

I have to agree with you on this one. But Joey T. does the same thing. I wonder how you view his credibility?

[MTK]

Joey T is a Skins homer no doubt. I think most Skins fans would agree.
