Great news, it's about time!

Congratulations, Drew Pearson. I have such fond memories of him. Whether you like the moniker or not, he is one of the reasons the Cowboys became America's Team. This is long overdue.

Although I am very happy for Drew, I can no longer use the excuse as to why the Steelers kept beating us in Super Bowls. We didn't have all of these hall of famers on offense like they did and still almost beat them. We had Tony and Roger, and now they're adding Drew, my spiel kind of falls flat now. I had to do backflips to pass it off before, now it's impossible.

The only "favorite cowboy's players" I ever had:

1st - Bob Hayes
2nd - Chuck Howley
3rd - Drew Pearson

Glad I quit picking favorite players! I was the jinx all along.

congrats , the original 88 that started the tradition.

Well deserved. It broke my heart seeing him get snubbed once again last year.....must've resonated with the voters since he got in this time. Much deserved. Give this man his flowers while he's still here to see them.

From the HS kid who cut history class to hang out in the Tulsa University rec room with you and other Golden Hurricane players, way to go Drew.

 

[StarMan2112]

Congrats Drew! Well deserved and long overdue.

 

[Montanalo]

Screw the Eagles. Man he went in on those fools. Lol.

Absolutely epic

 

[nightrain]

Hallelujah! Always an all time favorite of mine. So many big plays, so many big wins. He and Staubach were a dynamic combo.

Thirty-eight years vs Manning six year wait?!

Lol Are you serious? Everyone knew Manning was a first ballot HOFer, he's top 5 all time at his position

 

[Fmart322]

Well it's about time.
He should have been in 20 years ago.
Congratulations Drew.

I am so happy for Drew!!!! This was so overdue!!! I cried last year when they showed him getting emotional that he didn't get in, and I cried last night when they showed he finally made it in!!! And seeing Roger there when they told him the news was a bonus!!! Looks like Drew is going to make me cry a third time when I hear his HOF speech at the ceremony!!

Congrats OG 88

 

[Typhus]

About flippin' time.

Hells yes!

Congrats and well deserved!

indeed, bout damn time!!!
Drew... in da house!!!!!!!!

 

[Typhus]

Its players like this that keep me in the game,, and something I wonder about.
Asking an honest question,, anyone actually think players of todays game, and players with todays mentality actually achieve HOF status,, playas like Zeke, Dak just for example.
Do players like Zeke and Dak make the Hof in the future because the HOF standards are reduced?

 

[ThreeandOut]

Long overdue. Have a reason to watch the Hall of Fame speeches this year.
