When I look at all those reports on great LB's of the past, they never ever mention in the slightest the name Ricky Jackson. Man, I watch a lot of programs that pay homage to great players from the past and it disturbs me tremendously that they run programs about LT, Derrick Thomas, Kevin Greene, and guys like that. Now, don't get me wrong, those guys deserves all the pub they get and rightfully so, but you can't tell me our RJ don't belong in the same breath of those guys, as a matter of fact, he was a better all around LB than a lot of the those guys they pay homage to. If not for playing in the same era as LT, the City Champ would have made a lot more Pro Bowls and would definitely be in the HOF, I mean 115 sacks as a Saint(I don't remember how many he had in SF), about 28 fumbles with a season high of 7, all Saints records. I think if Ricky "CITY CHAMP" Jackson is not voted into the NFL HOF, the whole State of Louisiana should stage a write in campaign too DEMAND that the NFL show our great warrior some got dam well deserve respect and put him in his place in NFL immortality that is the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. But then again, that's just my opinion.
