JJ will never induct players before his time of ownership.


I don't get why people STILL hold Jerry in such a negative light. Get over it people.

I never understood why Cornell Green gets so little recognition.
You and me both. Green should have made the All-Decade Team. His credentials are better (better at the time, even) than Bobby Boyd's.

Didn't know that. In fact didn't look up anything. I just remember the guy as being a great corner on a team with a great defense. I really like Boyd.

PS: BTW here is that all decade team. WOW. Disturbing!

Sonny Jurgensen | Bart Starr | Johnny Unitas | John David Crow | Paul Hornung | Leroy Kelly | Gale Sayers | Jim Brown | Jim Taylor | John Mackey | Del Shofner | Charley Taylor | Gary Collins | Boyd Dowler | Bob Brown | Forrest Gregg | Ralph Neely | Gene Hickerson | Jerry Kramer | Howard Mudd | Jim Ringo | Doug Atkins | Willie Davis | Deacon Jones | Alex Karras | Bob Lilly | Merlin Olsen | Dick Butkus | Larry Morris | Ray Nitschke | Tommy Nobis | Dave Robinson | Herb Adderley | Lem Barney | Bobby Boyd | Eddie Meador | Larry Wilson | Willie Wood | Jim Bakken | Don Chandler

With playoffs ongoing in high school football, I’ve had an opportunity to stand on the Texas Stadium sidelines the past few weeks. Looking over the names on the Ring of Honor reminds me again of how so many worthy Cowboys have yet to even make our own team’s Hall of Fame!

Here are a few names that came to mind of former and retired players, coaches, and (in one case) fans who merit serious consideration. Feel free to add, remove, and discuss.

Drew Pearson
Harvey Martin
Charlie Waters
Ed “Too Tall” Jones
Dan Reeves
Danny White
Everson Walls
Bill Bates
Jim Jeffcoat
Darren Woodson
Jay Novacek
Erik Williams, Mark Tuinei, and Nate Newton (like the Triplets)
Daryl “Moose” Johnston
Jimmy Johnson
Larry Allen (once retired)
Crazy Ray

In my opinion, Drew not being inducted years ago is an absolute crime. No other player should be placed in the Ring till Pearson is put in, pre or post Jerry. I think the others should eventually be inducted as well.

One thing to think about. As the years pass and with the first of Jerry's Cowboys in the Ring (Aikman, Smith, and Irvin) the less likely Jones will be to induct Landry's players.:(

Sometimes I think there are too many players for JJ to pick from. There are more than a few I believe deserve to be in the ROH. Do you think JJ is afraid of diluting the ROH?
