If Owens Is A HOF WR...

[SDogo]

You think he would go in as a Cowboy where it seems he has been at his best and happiest in his career. Sort of a thank you to Jerry Jones for taking a chance or would go in as a 49er where he broke into the league and developed or less likely as an Eagles?

 

[D-TownRadio]

well seeing as he will win his first superbowl in dallas he will most likely go in as a cowboy.

 

[gazmc_06]

I have no doubts that he goes into the HOF, it's a no-brainer to me and I think he goes in as a Cowboy as long as he is around for a few more years which I fully expect him to be. he's having his best ever year here, he's happier here than anywhere else and if he leads us to the superbowl then I think he goes in as a Cowboy.

 

[SA_Gunslinger]

he will be a HOF-er....no doubt.

he has said he wants to go in as a cowboy, so unless he changes his mind, that's what i anticipate. i see him playing here another 2-3 years easy.

When you go into the HOF, it isn't exclusive to one team. You go in as a player, representive of all the teams you played for. he would go in a eagle, 49er and a cowboy

Blasphemy! Never associate anything Cowboy with Eagle.

Dargonking is correct -- you don't go into the Pro Football Hall of Fame "as" a member of any particular team, so it's not even an issue.

In baseball, it's different -- mostly because youre wearing a cap on your plaque.

I have a question for you Adam....

When Aikman retired... I believe he said "Today I retire from the National Football League".... not "Today I retire from the Dallas Cowboys".... was he thinking more along the lines of the HOF way or ?

Troy was released from the Cowboys in 2001. He looked for another team to sign with(I remember KC as a possibility. That ended when they traded for Trent Green). When there were no starting spots available, he hung up the cleats.

Yeah I remember that... but why didnt he go the "sign with the Cowboys for a day" to retire a Cowboy....

Just curious....

I don't doubt that he would go in the HOF, and don't doubt that he'd go in as a Cowboy, in fact I wouldn't be surprised that Ray Sherman would be his spokesperson, or whatever they call it

only comp I can see is the 9ers and Steve Young, I think TO really respected Young

Because he never played for another team.

Is that 1 of 10,000 ways to respond to a post incorrectly? :laugh2:

 

[Jay]

Think about it.. why would he sign with the Cowboys for a day when.. he was never anything else but a Cowboys?

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

How come other players don't always do that. Like Charles Haley, or Neon Deon? Hope Haley doesn't consider himself more a 49er than a Cowboy.

 

[Captain]

I hate to say it but I think the cause of T.O. being so quite this year is because we are winning. If we were 8-4 I think we'd have a different T.O. on our hands. None the less, he is a hall of fame type player..with or without the mouth.

I'm sure he does consider himself a 49er. He played for them first and he played for them last. He was never more than a hired gun for the Cowboys.

Not a big deal... was curious....

when he said "I retire from the NFL" I was suprised... thats all

I think what they mean is when they are presented with their ring and what not where will it be? Philly, San Fran, Dallas.
