Last year following the announcement of the finalists, Dr. Z of Sports Illustrated made the following statement here:
"Monk was hurt by Michael Irvin being eligible this year. It's done alphabetically, and Irvin was presented before Monk. I think that really hurt him."
Irvin is still eligible, but may carry a taint because of his recent arrest for possession of drug paraphenalia. It may cause some voters to say "not this year" and pass on him, giving the alphabetically-challenged Monk a better chance with the voters.
Discuss. Or don't. I'm not getting paid.

Maybe he should just drop his last name and go by Art so he could shoot to the top of the list alphabetically
