That is the best sports video I have ever seen in my life. Thank you for posting that and for the person who put it together. How can this have ever been an issue?
Monk For The Hall Videowilsowilso 01-04-2007, 11:52 PM That is the best sports video I have ever seen in my life. Thank you for posting that and for the person who put it together. How can this have ever been an issue? Monk-Fan 01-05-2007, 01:13 AM Great video i was amazed at how much old footage their was used in the video. Thank you to whoever took the time to make it. When Monk finally gets in i think that he will recognize all of his fans support, even after all the years that he has been retired. Cant wait for it to be official!!!!!!!! #56fanatic 01-05-2007, 08:43 AM it is amazing to me that Monk is not in the Hall. My issue with this is why aren't the people with "Football inteligence" voting or have a majority of the say in who is voted in. The writers most of whom have never suited up for any professional or collegient sporting event in their life should not be given the end all be all power of hall of fame voting. It is a shame that Monk was not in on his 1st attempt. it is a crime against the those all ready in the hall and the hall of fame itself jbcjr14 01-05-2007, 10:29 AM This video is amazing. I had chills watching some of those great catches during the glory days of old. This is the year he finally gets what he deserves. Redskins_P 01-05-2007, 10:49 AM Awesome video that brought back some great memories. How Monk is not in the HOF is beyond me. Lady Brave 01-05-2007, 01:31 PM Here's some additional info from ES on what the author plans to do with the video. (Post #47) EXTREMESKINS.com - Video Evidence: The Case For Monk in The HOF (http://www.extremeskins.com/forums/showthread.php?t=187074&page=4) I sent a DVD of this to Len Shapiro, who makes the case for Monk each year with the HOF voters. He was aware that I was making this and was looking forward to seeing it. He probably got it yesterday, but I have yet to hear from him. I'm hoping he gives me the go-ahead to send physical DVDs to all the HOF voters. Since it's about 20 minutes long, I think it MAY be too long for him to show in its entirety for his presentation, so it'd be good if the voters could watch it BEFORE they go in to vote. I made the vow last year that if Monk got snubbed again I would do this. I've collected a lot of games over the years, and I knew I had the footage. So, over the past year, I went through about 150 games in my spare time, grabbing any footage I thought was relevant and any comments about Monk. Then I had to whittle it all down. It was a labor of love, that's for sure, and I'm glad you guys have enjoyed it." I'd say send the link to everyone you can, because we don't have too long before the vote (February 4). All I ask is that you hold off FOR NOW deluging the voters with the link. I just want to hear from Shapiro first and see what he thinks. Hopefully I'll hear from him this weekend. LET'S GET THIS GUY IN ONCE AND FOR ALL!! IT'S WAY PAST TIME!!! HAIL!! wilsowilso 01-05-2007, 02:44 PM What a great football fan that person is for creating this video. It's beyond convincing. Bill B 01-06-2007, 01:52 PM Great video and I can't wait till he is in the HOF. Maybe you can forward this video to Brandon Llyod so he can take some notes? AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace 01-06-2007, 07:56 PM I really had to choke back the tears when I saw this video. riggoraider 01-06-2007, 08:46 PM I have no doubts that Monk will make it into the Hall of Fame. I know that he should already be in but it is hard for players like him and John Stallworth, who it also took a while to make it in, to be voted in because they were not the flamboyant types. But, with his generation of players and fans around the nation knowing that he has been shafted for all of these years, when he is finally inducted you best believe that it is going to be something very special. |
