2006 Hall of Fame Inductees

[SUNRA]

I rarely quote any person who ever played for Dallas, but I will cite Emmitt Smith in this instance who after hearing that Micheal Irving would not be selected immediately attacked the HOF committee. Smith basically said that he thinks the HOF committee's method of secrecy in voting is an example of men who are not really men. He said why do they hide behind their votes

"They ( sportswriters) come up to you laughing and smiling in your face, while stabbing you in the back by voting against you. Wow. This is coming from a Cowboy whose team had two inductees. Where are the former Redskins players who played with Art Monk at this time? Why aren't they speaking out on his behalf like some Giants did for Harry Carson? The only way Art Monk is accepted is if enough people criticize the sportwriters who have publicly rejected Monk and keep the pressure on.
