Many have said that LT was the best defensive player they've ever seen. I do not share that opinion. Great, to be sure but to me, Reggie White was the best I personally ever saw. That includes Decon Jones, Dick Butkas, any of them.

Reggie was maybe the best defensive lineman ever, but LT was in a class of his own.

Reggie has Taylor by a mile in the human being category, though

I don't agree.

Sara White is such a gracious speaker. She's a great representer for Reggie.

That was a real hard thing to do. I give her huge amounts of credit.

Where is Aikman. I noticed that he was not there when Moon came back and again now, he was not there when White came back.

I know it must be an emotional day, but that speech was awful. It was like reading a run on sentence. No coherent thought or theme, but Ill just be happy its over.

I wonder how easy it might be for anyone of you to get up and speak about your husband or Wife a year or so after he or she had passed on.

I don't care how the speech came out, that women deserves credit for just being able to get up and get through it at all.

I agree very classless.

There are times for ridicule and then there are times for "Respect".....and for some it is probably best that they just remain quiet.;)

As far as DE's go, Reggie is right up there. But I think that Lilly was a better D lineman overall. So was Manster. And Harvey Martin was not much behind Reggie as a DE - and he has not even been considered for the HOF. SO if Reggie White is aclaimed as a first time ballot HOF, then Harvey deserves to be in as well.

I forget the actual quote, but what's the saying, "it's better to let people think you're ignorant than to speak and remove all doubt?"

This could be one of those times... :cool:
