And yet, Art still doesn't qualify?

What a minute, he mentions Ellard for his long and dedicated service, and for Aikman he says stats don't matter and that he sacrificed for team goals... couldn't these same things be said for Monk??

No kidding. I really don't get it. Did Monk get drunk and piss on the hall of fame or somthing? There is no way he shouldn't be in there.

Absolutely agree. If you look up "Wide Reciever epitomized by long and dedicated service who was always willing to sacrifice for team goals" in the Football dictionary.....you'd have to see Art Monk's picture there.

Monk not being in the hall (and guys like Stallworth and Swan being there and Irvin being considered) is an absolute crime. And I really don't understand how this has happened. Even here in Philly, I have NEVER spoken with a single Eagles Fan (as unreasonable as they usually are) who has not been absolutely apalled by the fact that Art Monk is not in the Hall of Fame. If even rival Eagles fans get it, how can the voters be so out of touch?
