NFL HOF Class of 2006

Leaders and champions!

those are the defining characteristics of the 6 men who will enter the pro football hall of fame on saturday.

record-setting QB's Troy Aikman and Warren Moon. super bowl-winning coach and television icon John Madden. impregnable blocker Rayfield Wright. Versatile linebacker Harry Carson.
And Reggie White, the Minister of Defense. not a bad class this year.

personally, i think harry carson should have went in before LT, but thats just my opinion.

I really enjoyed the ceremony today. Rayfield Wright's speech was amazing and I thought the best of the class after he gave it. Then comes Aikman and blows him away. What a speech.

A bunch of class guys for sure.

i agree homie... this is the only HOF ceremony i always watch year in and year out.

that Rayfield Wright $100 sneaker comment was classic.

Isn't it amazing to see how well spoken and classy these older black men are? Their race has really taken a nose dive.

i wouldn't just say black race though homie. i feel it's every races nowadays, due to the lack of education these college classes the atheletes are taking.

i mean those music appreication 101 and DVD remote control programming 101 type classes these college players are taking nowadays isn't gonna cut it when they have to give there HOF induction speeches.

This doesn't have anything to do with college education dan.

bigboydan · 08-05-2006, 08:04 PM

i know what your saying homie in regards to the proper environment, but the lack of education doesn't help matters either.

Anybody know where I can see the replay of the ceremony? I turned in too late to see Aikman's part.

Edit: Nevermind. It's running long and it's on ESPN Classic. I thought Reggie's would be the last induction.

I was really disappointed at the speech Reggie's wife gave. Not sure why exactly other than I had higher expectations. She rambled, rambled, rambled......

i really hate the new way they do this whole HOF induction layout.

for years and years the NFL always played the HOF game after the ceremonies. now it's all about the new TV contracts they got a few years back.
