Fastest Man Alive Now Dead
Just about a week ago we lost another great football legend.

Bob Hayes died at 59.

He was hell on wheels for the Dallas Cowboys aobut 30 years ago.

Hayes was the only man to have an Olympic gold medal and Super Bowl ring.

Maybe Bob and Johnny can chuck a few balls now.

Not on the same team. Johnny U would never play on the same team with a Cowboy in this life or the next.

Bullet Bob and the Cowboys will go down in the final two minutes.

Nice job Geobeet. It is not enough to kick a man when he is down. Kicking him when he is dead takes real class.

Play nice boys!

I'm a Redskins fan and I remember Hayes rippin' through the secondary back in the day.

Hayes was amazing!

I didn't kick the man. I kicked the team. Learn to read.

No $hit!
Any self-respecting football fan from Philadelphia, New York(Giants) or Washington likes to see the Cowboys GO DOWN.


Hey, let's kick the crap out of bacpac now that we've got HIM down.

Doing so would leave an empty sack.

Seeing the 'Boys go down this season offers no pleasure at all. It was like the Eagles beat up on the Overbrook School for the Blind. Soon Jerry Jones will be coaching the team himself and the results will be even more pathetic.

Yes, it is sad to see the Cowboys humbled.

Jones doesn't deserve great players like Emmit Smith if he's gonna run his team into the ground.

Maybe they could get Dion back.

Emmit took his jersey off before the game even ended. I figure he didn't want to be associated with the team.

Emmit's got a gig with ALF on some TV commercial.

I hope that's not the same Jerry Jones who builds electric guitars.

I was the only non-Cowboys fan in my family, growing up. Bob Hayes was one of the few Cowboys that I liked. I remember him as a class act.

The 'Boys had a lot of class acts through the years and a few classless acts. The class acts are why we hate them so much. Much as we hate to admit it, they were damned good.

The most class act was Tom Landry. Never said a negative word when they canned him.

Jerry Jones is a blubbering idiot with more money than brains. That would be bad enough, but he has no soul. He makes Rich Kotite look as though he knows what shape a football is. They hate Jerry in Dallas. Funny, the rest of the country loves him.

Jerry has done one good thing. There are a whole lot less Cowboys jerseys and hats being worn. That bandwagon emptied in a hurry.

Ya got that right Geo!

If there's anything that I dislike is seeing Cowboys clothing on the streets of Washington!

Traitors!!!

Funny how the players the we hated most when they played against our team are the ones we cheer the most when they make the Hall of Fame and mourn the most when they pass.

What it comes down to is we respect their skills even while they beat us. In sports, hate is the greatest tribute you can pay your opponent.

I still remember Stan the Man crouched at the plate, waiting on the pitch. I hated him with a passion. Hate Stan the Man? Ya gotta be kiddin! When I think of him in that crouch, I still remember praying he didn't get a hit and drive in a run. Those prayers weren't answered very often!
