I know there are several players deserving of this honor, However I think it is time we the fans have a say so in who are our childrens role models not just a group sitting in a room on vacation </p> I would like to start by my selection of Sam Mills a great team player, a underdog in size. a great coach, a great father, and yes most of all a great person "the kind of person you would want your kid to grow up to be"</p> </p> http://www.petitiononline.com/SAM51/petition.html</p> </p> </p>
What does being a role model have to do with the hall of fame?</p> I mean, it's nice and all.. but the HOF should be for the best to play the game.</p>

"that is the kind of person you should strive to be"</p> M.I. cmon? L.T. cmon? great players great stats but what kind of character did they have? (IMO and NO offense meant to thier fans)</p> How about the Art Monks of the world? The Richard Dents of the world?</p> Yes plenty of others worthy also I just think it is time the fans have or at least try to have some input to the process?</p> And as A Sam Mills fan I will try to push his name every year until he is finally entered.</p> and again just my opinion, </p>
I wasn't trying to put down Sam Mills, it was just an honest question..</p> Personally I was a huge Michael Irvin fan. What he does off the field is not a concern for me.</p>
Fair what he did on the field and what he brought to the team was HoF worthy and I am sure Emmit will get there also they performed great feats together. Just a shame that it is nearly impossible to get in without a ring! and so many valuable players will never make it.

Do what you want?</p> </p> You will be honored by the <font size="5">Football Hall of Fame.</font></p> <font size="5"></font><font size="3">Let's go Cowboy's </font><font size="2">oh yea the coach who tried to get a gun through the airport?
