Yeah this was a slam dunk.Walt was the best for a long time. That was one heck of left side there for a while with him and Hutch.

One more celebration for the weekend.

Go Hawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Walt hadn't made it on the first ballot, they might as well have burned the place down.

We are extremely fortunate in that every one of our three HOF'ers are extremely good guys. He fits like a glove with our other two. Congratulations to Walter Jones!

Not really River his numbers were not all that great. Hee hee Only 9 Pro Bowls, 5 first team selections. He has a massive 9 holds In 5,703 pass plays.

Yes Heard that stat about 9 career holding calls on the radio - and 5 of those calls came in the superbowl against the Stealers Lol - an amazing statistic.

Congratulations, Walter Jones.

There aren't enough superlatives to describe the man and how he played the game.
