Emmitt should've followed Ricky. That way he'd seem halfway intelligent. Let's just hope he doesn't debacle himself up there.

I'm hoping that Emmitt gives an entertaining speech

I think he'll be entertaining because he's just a guy that has that magnetic type of personality. Terrible speaker, but tremendous presence. All kidding aside, he should do great.

Really when Emmitt is being himself he's not that bad. He just tries way too hard on camera.

I wonder if he comes off like an arrogant arse like usual.

Great player, but total douche of a human being.

I really don't know what to believe on this topic. I have heard so many stories pointing to both extremes on him. Some people say he's the nicest most down to earth guy on the planet and some people say he's an arrogant a-hole piece of shite. I've never been able to get a read on which side is right.

Floyd Little doesn't belong in the HOF.

Were the ones saying how nice a guy he was Cowboys or UF fans?



Literally everything I've heard was how big an arse he was. He wouldn't sign shite unless you paid him, and unless he could make a buck off of anything, he refused to do it.

Emmitt is a quality human being. Most hate him because he took the high road and didn't partake in the excesses of his Cowboy teammates like Irvin. He walked the straight and narrow instead. The haters don't like him because he is everything they will never be.

Mafia is bitter and cynical about anything. Take him with a grain of salt. Emmitt is good people.

Yeah, not smoking crack and being a party animal are why he's seen as a selfish a-hole that wouldn't do a damn thing without receiving $ in the process.

I've heard Emmitt is a complete douche from people around here in Dallas. I could care less though. He was a hell of a RB and even better source of comedy.

One of the best RBs ever. No one can deny that and well deserved entry into the HOF.
