Don't Forget To Vote For 2008 Falcon Ring Of Honor

Hey guys, dont forget to vote for the 2008 inductee to the falcon's ring of honor. I  am too young to  remember any of them, but i am sure there are a lot of old-school fans here that watched them and might want to get their vote out.

Here's where you can vote.

Choices are: Gerald Riggs, Mike Kenn, and Claude Humphrey

Who do you guys think should be in for this year?

Claude Humphrey

Our first great pass rusher is also currently nominated for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, they vote on January 31. He and Tommy Nobis were the cornerstones of our defense for many years. Nice AJC article here. Good luck Claude!

Shit

I accidently voted for Pat Buchanan

We’ve heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.

I support Gerald Ford.

Recount

Now we have to hand count all of the hanging Chad Lavalais’.

In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.

The other candidates

are both very deserving, but #87 has been unjustly passed over longer than they have. Back in Humphrey’s day, the Falcons had precious little offense, they lived and died with that defense. He had something like 120 career sacks.

He was (is) a good human being, too. My dad (a hospital administrator) said Humphrey was particularly gracious about spending time visiting with his V.A. Hospital patients, more than almost any other player.

Any relation?

Between John and Illinois coach Ron Zook? Always wondered about that.
