I may be a Cowboys homer, but I teared up about the same time Emmitt did, when he was thanking FB Moose Johnston. Fullbacks have one of the crappiest jobs in football, it was great to see Moose get his props. Hopefully the old timers committee one day will see fit to giving Moose a well deserved spot in the Hall.Mike B.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/halloffam ... id=5445640[/url]

I think O-line is an even tougher job; you get beat up every week working your tail off and you get none of the glory.But today I think Cornerbacks have it the worst. Sprinting up and down the field after receivers every play, and with today's rules they're not allowed to do much of anything to really stop a pass. Everything is a flag now, so basically all they can do is just try to keep up alongside their guy and hope for the best. Plus they get burned alot in hare-brained zone coverage schemes.Has to be a frustrating position to play.Safety too, but at least they get to clock somebody at full speed in the flats every once in a while, so they have an emotional outlet.

The dedication will be on US 29 at the Alabama/Georgia line, and its length is from the city limits of LaGrange, GA to the Chattahoochee River. It will be dedicated as the "Millard Fuller Memorial Highway." At a later date, Alabama will dedicate US 29 on its side of the border from the state line to the Lee County line with the same name. US 29 runs through the part of the state where my dad grew up, primarily Valley, Alabama.As we say down south, "Ya'll come!"

They want their personal props for sure, but trust me when I say that winning solves most of these frustrations. And checking the balance of their bank account helps, I am sure!

Anyone want to guess what will happen? Will I lose and pay from my pocket, will I lose and Amazon pays, or will he lose and leave me bad feedback? Those are the three possibilities that I see. Any other other possibilities?
