How the Cowboys got him #1 in 1974 and then Randy White and Hollywood in the first round in 75 is beyond me, kudos to a great front office, reloaded the Cowboys in those 2 drafts.

Happy birthday big guy!

Gil Brandt and that is why he is in the HOF now. Tex took care of contracts but it was Gil who brought these players in the 70's in.

Duh, he was thin for that size. Didn't see it on the field. i was a young man. I stand corrected. He must have looked like an albatross across the lines.
* more likely the "virtual El Condor":lmao:
** that was the running nickname placed on the #95 Irving back when he'd cared enough to maintain playing status**

Cred given to the "Troutster" @Trouty

Just like in Major League Baseball....players 6'6" and above always stand out.
And almost all of the tall players in baseball were \are pitchers.

On one particular birthday, Hollywood Henderson gave Too Tall three hookers, a blond, a brunette, and a redhead. True story.
