Re: All Hail Art Monk!
Beautiful page.
What people need to understand is that it was a different game when Monk played. You didn't have all the wide open offenses that you have now. Nobody was regularly cranking out 1,000 yard seasons then. Plus he played for a team and coach that was known for RUNNING THE FOOTBALL! Monk did what was asked of him, which was provide the clutch catch to move the chains. If he doesn't make it into the HOF I'll be through with this sport! I'd like to compile all 940 catches in order on one tape and mail it to the HOF! I've never been one to thrust the role model stigma onto professinal athletes but Monk took on that on his own, and did it by example, not with words. Being a kid watching those games I couldn't imagine growing up with a better example of hard work and class. |
