    Lebeau saying he was waiting for the phone call to see if he got in when he was already voted in was pretty damn funny.

    Good speech by Lebeau.

    I really enjoyed LeBeau's speech. Just a good down to earth guy who has worked hard his whole life.

    Who is going to cry more, Jerry Rice or Emmitt Smith? Both extremely emotional guys known for crying.

    That's a tough one. But I guess you can give a small edge to him. He cries every other interview. Sensitive guy for real lol.

    Emmitt is a weeping willow. There is no doubt hes going to have a tough time holding it together. I enjoy watching this stuff, I've been able to go to a few of them through the years. I highly recommend it

    Jerry Rice reads at about a 10th grade level.

    I'm loving this show. LeBeau from Ohio, Emmitt and Ricky from Florida.


    Smith visited the Hall of Fame on Mar. 8, 2010 where he posed for a photo with Ohio State Buckeyes head football coach Jim Tressel prior to touring the museum. Tressel was in town to speak at the weekly Pro Football Hall of Fame Luncheon Club.

    I'm heading up for Jerome Bettis getting inducted next year. Deion Sanders, Marshall Faulk and Curtis Martin will all (most likely) be getting inducted as well. Pretty good company to say the least.

    Sadly. I don't think any less of him but it's pretty obvious that reading isn't his strong suit. The content was quality stuff though.

    No tears from Jerry. Surprised me.
  • Speedofsand
    Jerry is better than that in interviews, all weekend on tv. He was probably just too nervous up there.
    No one has cried yet ?

    I can almost guarantee Emmitt will.
  • killer_ewok
    Emmitt will cry like he's making out with an onion. Bet on it.
  • Speedofsand
    Emmitt has 100 hours of practice for this speech. He knows it by heart. They saved the best for last.
  • killer_ewok
    TEARS!!!!!
  • mallymal614
    There goes Emmitt with the tears.......
  • killer_ewok
    Gotta give Emmitt credit......he gives his FB major respect. Moose Johnston has to be beaming inside.

    Great speech by Emmitt!!
