Here is a Cowboys tidbit I didn't know.....I feel really bad, because this is my favorite Cowboys WR of all time.....Leroy Anthony Hill is aka Tony Hill the Cowboys 2nd leading WR of all time behind Michael Irvin. IMO he should be in the Hall of Fame because he ranked right there with the Monks, Stallworths, Swann's and Pearsons.

Hill finished his 10 NFL seasons with 479 receptions for 7,988 yards and 51 touchdowns in 142 games 3 Pro Bowls

Pearson had career records of 489 receptions and 7,822 receiving yards and 50 touchdowns 3 Pro Bowls 10 Year career

Johnny Lee Stallworth 537 receptions for 8,723 yards and 63 TDs 13 years 3 Pro Bowls

Lynn Swann 336 career receptions for 5,462 yards and 51 touchdowns
3 Pro Bowls 8 Years

James Arthur Monk finished his 16 NFL seasons with 940 receptions for 12,721 yards and 68 touchdowns 3 Pro Bowls

I loved Tony "Thrill" Hill as much as anyone. He did get a ring as a rookie but didn't start that game. Unfortunately ring count seems to carry more weight than anything else.

Yeap, I remember the game where the Cowboys came back against the Skins and he caught those beautiful over the shoulder catches from those rainbow passes....

Tony Hill is also my all time favorite. If it wasn't for "Dial 80" I might not be a Cowboys fan today. I can't imagine life without the Cowboys. Thanks Thrill Hill.

Tony "Thrill" Hill is definitely engrained in my memory. He wore #80 and I loved watching him and Drew Pearson together.

Tony Hill should be in the Hall of Fame. Has he ever at least been considered?
