I am 37 as well.

Randy Gradishar was the anchor of the Orange Crush defense in the 70's and 80's.

That could be said for lots of players, not just ones who played for Dallas. Again, only 1 team that entered the league from 1960 on has more HOF players than Dallas. The notion there is a bias against Cowboy players does not track.

Hayes is the only one that should be a slam dunk for Dallas, and I think we know why he's not in. Harris and Pearson simply aren't HOF caliber players.

I still never heard of him but I know Denver had a solid defense but without a Super Bowl win these players will never get in. HOF = overrated.

Living on the east coast we see NFC East and AFC East. If they didn't come on Monday night football there are tons of football fans that may have never seen him play.

If Jim Kelly and Thurman Thomas are in the Hall...

If Fran Tarkenton is in...

Why? honestly, I don't know....the drug abuse?

a bit of a shame if that is why, but only a bit.
