Re: RICKEY JACKSON WILL BE INDUCTED INTO THE NFL HALL OF FAME
Actually the Hall of Fame doesn't distinguish players as belonging to any team. Ricky goes in as one of the best football players ever. If it wasn't for Lawrence Taylor I'd say he was the LB I ever saw.

Wanna bet who'll be making the pregame speech tomorrow afternoon?
It took 43 years for a Saint to be recognized. Let's give them something to remember tomorrow. Let's give Ricky some company. |

Good for Rickey. It's about freaking time. Now let's see Mills, Swilling, and V.J. get in there as well. You gotta put all four in there. This is a sign for tomorrow Saints fans......

And I didn't think WWL could find anyone more incoherent than Buddy D could be at times (especially after a day with the Ponies); but Hebert is brutal to the ears... And I just didn't like Hebert doing his dirty bird routine; classless... Two other thoughts on Rickey; one, did he get the child support thing cleared up? and two, does Andre Tippet getting in close the deal for Rickey who had better stats?!? |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Mark Madden...I think he was on old WCW wrestling programs as a color commentator. He was a jerk-off then, and he's a jerk-off now.
