I erase the duplicate signatures. My plan is to send the petition off to Peter King, Dr. Z, and the loud naysayers to remind them that theirs isn't the only criteria that matters. If there are a bunch of duplicates, or "Mickey Mouse" signatures, it doesn't really help the cause.

What a list. It looks like it could be a cowturd class with Aikman, Johnson, and Irvin. I will just puke if that happens.

Let's look at the first year eligibles:

Troy Aikman (because of the Super Bowls, he's in)
Bruce Armstrong
Ben Coates (HA!)
Dermonti Dawson
Irving Fryar
Cortez Kennedy
Warren Moon (I'm almost thinking lock)
Andre Reed
Clyde Simmons
Neil Smith
Thurman Thomas
Jessie Tuggle
Reggie White (i'm thinking lock)

Out of this group, I'd say Aikman, Moon and White first ballot, Dawson and Armstrong possibly in the future, and Thurman Thomas is a maybe.

The two lead pipe locks here are Aikman and White.

You can make a case for most of the others, but none of them look to be first ballot guys.
