As a Chiefs fan it was a pretty emotional moment. I'm really glad that things like this are televised on the NFL Network now. I am really looking forward to the induction in August. Who will introduce and accept on Derrick's behave? |
DT is absolutely a HOFer. No question about it.
Presenter? Neil Smith? His Mom? Clark Hunt? Marty Schoettenheimer? Mitch Holthus?
