Me too. Hopefully with a book published and for sale.

You talking about your Cowboys book? I'll want you to sign my copy if it's out before the Cowboys @ Skins game and if you'll be in the DC area.

Bengals will play Cowboys in Canton

Posted by Mike Florio on February 24, 2010 5:01 PM ET


My kid has been bugging me for more than two weeks about the identity of the teams who'll play in the Hall of Fame game.

Finally, he can move onto another question that he'll ask me over and over again.

The league has announced that the Bengals will face the Cowboys on August 8 in Canton. The game will be televised nationally on NBC.

For the Cowboys, it's their first appearance in Canton since 1988, and it coincides with the enshrinement of running back Emmitt Smith.

Also entering the Pro Football Hall of Fame on August 7 will be receiver Jerry Rice, offensive lineman Russ Grimm, linebacker Rickey Jackson, defensive back Dick LeBeau, running back Floyd Little, and defensive tackle John Randle.

The Bengals-Cowboys game marks a return to the interconference format that had been used in most years. Last season, the league scheduled the Titans and the Bills in honor of the AFL's 50th season.

And with Cincinnati receiver Chad Ochocinco lobbying the team to sign free-agent receiver Terrell Owens, T.O. could be making his second straight visit to Canton -- and he'd be getting his first crack at the team that cut him last year.

Um... that's 1999. We played the Cleveland Browns then.

Well, we know Martellus Bennett will be at the game. The question is what jersey will he be wearing?

 

[Danny White]

Just confirmed that I'm going. This'll be my first time to see the Hall of Fame.

Can't wait to see Emmitt enshrined!

The top players won't be out there very long. At least they shouldn't be.

** Here's a Did you know?: The Bengals are the only team that Jerry Jones has not made a trade with since becoming the Cowboys owner and general manager.

That'd be a good trivia question.
