If I had to start a team, Walter would be right up there with anyone I'd pick. Seems to get "lost" these days in regards to how good O.J. was due to his behavior, but he was as good as anybody I ever saw!
amazing this year. Jerry Rice, Emmitt Smith, Tim Brown, Chris Carter, Richard Dent, Shannon Sharpe, Russ Grimm, John Randle, Cortez Kennedy, Charles Haley, plus about 7 more. They won't ALL get in at once, but it's likely to be a large class of inductees.
even as i hate Smith so much. WHY? He surpassed my buddy WALTER PAYTON's rushing record. I think Payton should have his own damned category. He was such a class act. With a tragic ending. Now i'm on a tangent;sorry
Jim, along with a lot of other folks, took issue with the fact that Franco seemed to run out of bounds to avoid contact quite a bit. If I remember, Jim also challenged him to the hundred yard dash and I think Franco declined. I'm not a Franco basher by the way. I remember when he played fullback at Penn State and Lydell Mitchell was the stud running back for Paterno.
my main point was that Jim Brown had nothing but praise for Walter Payton.
FWIW I am not a Franco basher either, but Payton was in a completely different class than Franco. For him to achieve the success and longevity on a Bears team that was downright pitiful for the first 7 or 9 years of his career was truly remarkable.
