[quote=Hog's Breath;416431]Oh, and one more thing...

Hey Peter King, Art is in. Now you can go eat a big juicy bag of shit. Thank you that is all.[/quote]

Just so you know, Peter King and Dr. Z both said they were voting for Monk this year, King has been pro-Monk for the past two years and I think Dr. Z changed his mind earlier this year. So instead of cursing them for being anti-Monk for a while, I'm going to thank them for changing their stance and realizing how deserving he truly was, and making the right decision in the end.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

it's about f-in time!! I shouted as soon as I saw the news on ESPNews. a long overdue decision and it's awesome as hell that both Monk and Green are going in together. if I can arrange it/afford it I'm totally going.

[quote=GMScud;416390]Skins represented 30% of the final 10 with Green, Monk, and Grimm. Congrats to Art and Darrell. Two of my favorite all time Skins. I'm very proud. Great day for the Skins organization.[/quote]

Would you count Emmitt Thomas a part Skin? he was an assistant coach for the Skins..

[QUOTE=Darrell_Green_28;416460]Would you count Emmitt Thomas a part Skin? he was an assistant coach for the Skins..[/QUOTE]

No doubt!! This has got to be the classiest list of players ever selected. Besides Green,Monk and Thomas, Dean, Tippett and Zimmerman are pretty classy and damn good players. Love this 2008 class.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

great news,I was so afraid he wasnt going to make it this yr,and if he didnt he probably never was,plus its great for 2 skin teamates to be going in at the same time
hail to the redskins

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

I grew up watching Darrell and he has always been my favorite player. I am so happy for him and Art. I am SO SICK of trying to defend Art. I am outnumbered 500 to 1 by Cowboys fans and have been preaching for 8 years now how much of an injustice Art not getting in was. I have been taking blows and getting ganged up against all in the name of him (not to mention the "salt in the wound" of overrated Irvin getting in before Art). Now can wear my #28 and #81 jerseys with a little more pride than before.

CONGRATS MONK AND GREEN!!!!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

[QUOTE=RedZone;416383]Very Sweet! A Redskin-heavy class....[/QUOTE]

well deserved and long over due .
it only took art 8 times damn but finally..

awesome and to have darrell in there is all the sweeter both at the sametime.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

It's about time. I guess it is time to change my name. HAIL!! I will be there that is for sure. Looking into hotel rooms in the next couple of days. C u guys there!!!! Damn it feels go to be a Skins fan, this day before the Super Bowl!!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

To repeat what everyone is saying: ABOUT FRIGGIN TIME!!!!!!!!

WHHOOOOOO! Way to go, Monk and Green. Class acts, all time greats, core Redskins, Hall of Famers.


The world turns as it should.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

[quote=Darrell_Green_28;416460]Would you count Emmitt Thomas a part Skin? he was an assistant coach for the Skins..[/quote]
He's got two SB rings w/ the Skins, so I'd say yes. I know he isn't in the HOF for his coaching, but he's still part Skin and another link to the SB teams.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congrats to Art Monk and Darrell Green. It would have been sweet to see Russ Grimm make it this year, but he'll get it next year. Congrats guys for making the Hall Of Fame!!!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

I am so happy for Art & Darrell! I wish the young players today would model themselves after these gentlemen and the league would be a much better!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congrats to my favorite player of all time Art Monk. It is great to see him and D. Green both get in - I would have loved to also see Grimm as well but 2 of 3 ain't bad.

I can't wait to see what happens when Art gets up and addresses everyone. By the way media voters - you are 8 years late on this vote and to Cris Carter - wait till next year buddy!

Yeah - once he started talking crap about how Monk is not a HOF he had it coming of not getting in. No Supre Bowl rings had to be one of the arguments against Carter. I think the voting committee needs to think about 7 more years on Carter like they did on Monk if you ask me.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

yea baby!
great stuff...makes the giants in the superbowl more palatable

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Im so happy for Green and Monk...:)!!!! These guys were great players man, I was lucky enough to get to See Darrell Green play and remember it and I saw his final game I even have pictures!! I can honestly say that man is the reason I wanted to be a DB in high school.

Art Monk has got to be one of the most awesome WR I have ever seen!!! Explination not even needed all you need to say is hands!!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

[QUOTE=724Skinsfan;416430]Whoo-mutha-effin-hoo!!!!! About time! Just bought 6 tickets online. Hury up and order guys.[/QUOTE]

Scooped up my 6 tickets, too. I think this is gonna be one helluva Redskin reunion!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congrats to #81 and #28 and their respective families. I'm gonna try to make the trip. How about Monk for HC!?

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Finally, Monk gets in. I believe one of the reasons it took so long is Monk had a reputation for being surly with the press. Writers can be huge crybabies and hold grudges for eternity . . .

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

about time!!!!!!!!! hail skins

You know what, the best part was when they asked him a question during the phone interview and he said he really is a [B]man of few words[/B] I hope that answer made all those writers that voted against feel like shit!! The man is as genuine and humble as they come. What a class act and great human being.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

It's gonna be cool to hear Chris Berman call him [U]Arthur[/U] Monk one more time :)

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congratulations to Monk and Green. Now we start agitating for Grimm and Jacoby.

"HOGS IN THE HALL" The fight ain't over yet, but I do want to enjoy Art and Darrell before it continues.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congratulations Art Monk and Darrell Green! Its about f-ing time. I would really like to go see him get inducted at the ceremony.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

It always angered me that Michael Irvin was in there but not Monk. Art didn't need controlled substances to over the middle. ITS ABOUT TIME.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

[QUOTE=Darrell_Green_28;416460]Would you count Emmitt Thomas a part Skin? he was an assistant coach for the Skins..[/QUOTE]

Absolutely! He was DG's position coach for Super Bowls XXII and XXVI

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Congrats to Monk and Green its way overdue and great news. To those guys who say we should say thanks to people like Peter King and Dr Z for finally voting for Art it was those jerks that kept him out for too long because he wouldn't kiss ass and give BS quotes to journalists when he was playing.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

I can't wait to see these guys go in, our SB teams under Gibbs to this point have been severely underrepresented.

Also can't wait to see how Skins fans turn out for this. Let's take over Canton!

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Long... long overdue.

Congrats to Art and DG. I took like 8 shots of GM last night in honor of our new HOF inductees.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

Its awesome news!

TWO OF THE BEST EVER IN TOGETHER!!

REDSKINS should use this positive momentum and start playing ball like the old days and win one like 91'. Giants did their part now its our turn.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

I love it. Art was working out in WorldGate last wednesday and it took all I could not to go up to him and tell his Thank you and I hope this is his year.

Re: The injustice is over!!! Art is in!!!
 

It'll be very exciting to see Monk and Green inducted this summer. Is it August yet?
