With Howley’s health issues I’m wondering if he’s going to be able to deliver a speech?

Outstanding news. LONG overdue

exactly. Will he even make it to the induction day?

He’s in pretty bad shape. Someone may have to speak for him if he does make it. He wasn’t able to make it to the NFL honors in February.

I would love to be in Canton for this. I saw those guys play many a game back in the day.

Howley was a great player. Remember having his card and all the others from that era.

It was a wonderful time to be a Cowboys fan.

 

[Ranching]

That's cool!

I believe it would be his son if I’m not mistaken

It would be great. Never met Howley but Lilly is a great guy

Couldn't think of a better man to introduce Chuck into his long awaited induction into the HOF.

Two of the best to have worn the star and played the game. It was a privilege to have watched them play.
Good for Howley to have finally gotten the official accolades that have been alive and well in the minds of many players and fans. Icing on the cake.

Well said. Two brothers in arms, great Cowboys entering Valhalla. I cant wait to see this, a celebration.

I saw Howley a few times out in public. Just casual stuff. Never really had a big conversation with him. But my impression from what I did see is that he's a really nice person....kind of quiet and very good with fans and other people.

I met Bob Lilly at an event for a company I worked with. When I was a kid I wrote a letter to Staubach and got a handwritten letter back. I took it and my Lilly football cards when I met him. He said Roger wrote lots of kids letters and he let me try on his ring. It was a little loose on my thumb lol
Great, down to earth guy
