Too Tall Announcing First Pick

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

He held out and embarrassed himself in the boxing arena over 170k a year. Now tank balks at 20 million a year to play the same position. How the times have changed. Texas schramm could never have survived the age of free agency.

This, I would love to hear what Jones thinks of that.

It still won't be as good as this draft pick announcement

Can't imagine this will ever be upstaged.

It looked like he never intended to to go off like he did, but the Philly fans just goaded him into it. One of my proudest Cowboy moments.

Drew Pearson was just silk as a WR. That is the best description I can give.

He held out and embarrassed himself in the boxing arena.

6-0 with 5 KOs.

Really embarrassed himself.

To bad he has to hang out till the second round.

Well, since the commish announces all of the first round picks, even if we had one he’d still have to hang out till the second.

That was the greatest, the egirls fan hated it. I remembered Herm Edwards saying something about it on DSPN. LOL. Roger G. was laughing while stepping back.

I was just about to post the same thing. It’s true that his opponents were mainly journeymen boxers, but to say that he embarrassed himself is just flat out wrong.

The older generation was kinda sour grapes when Too Tall made his detour..

I only recall it because my dad would mention it in passing during that time and then once about a decade after...

My dad said that Too Tall himself had stated that he didn’t like the sport after he got his fill of it..

Good times...

From his wikipedia page

In a 2016 interview, Jones called boxing his favorite sport and said that fighting "was probably the best decision [he] ever made," because his boxing training regimen made him a better football player.[7]

Too Tall Jones will announce our first pick this year
Rayfield Wright gets the next pick

First pick? I thought the commissioner always did round 1.

He does. We don't have a first rounder, so Jones will announce our first pick. In the second round.

We don’t have a round one pick

And yet he went back to football.. Context is King.

Was he being facetious or was he simply stating it improved his cardio and concentration..

All I can recall is the older generation hated his detour...

Ed was and is the Anti David Irving.

 

[Rayman70]

Ed could have played in todays NFL TOO. and been just as good. You cant teach size and natural want to.

 

[Rayman70]

Lets not forget we had bookends at DE IN THE 70'S AND 80'S. Harvey Martin was an absolute beast too.

[Rayman70]
