Yeah...LT is great.
No one better to break any of Emmitt's records as he goes on...Except the all time rushing record.

I am in fear of the all time rushing TD record. But he is a class act, so can not deny him of his records...

Great accomplishments...congrats....

All right. He is slightly better than ok.

Uh Jim Brown was black.

Take a history lesson and figure out what I meant. To say that 1 guy was allowed to play as some sort of response to what I said is asinine.

There were a lot of black players starting in the mid 50's. It was actually easier to play football then baseball for them. The bigger athletes then as now went to football. The overall quality of the opponents Jim Brown faced was higher due to a much smaller number of teams. Especially his first few years before the AFL came to be; and they did not get the real good athletes for a couple of years after that. Jim Brown faced more of the best football players of his time concentrated in fewer teams then LT is facing now. There are 3 times as many teams; many more players playing; and there are many other sports now that those players can go to. In the late 50;s there was really only the big 4; football, baseball, hockey and basketball. And really it was baseball then football as regards importance; for black athletes it was football first. There really is not much competition between football and baseball for athletes when you are looking at the bigger players.

Just imagine if the Chargers ever added a stud at WR.

LT is sick.
