Art Monk vs Michael Irvin

In today's Monday Morning Quarterback Column, Peter King of SI.com said that Michael Irvin is the 3rd most deserving player (of those eligible) who has not yet been inducted into the Hall of Fame. Of course, he did not list Art Monk as someone who is deserving.

SI.com has a poll up on the main page right now, asking who is more deserving of HOF status, Irvin or Monk. Right now, the voters are favoring Monk 61% - 39%. Do your part and give Monk a vote. I want to see Irvin go down by at least 2-1, the numbers should at least get to 67% - 33%.

No surprise here. Art Monk seems to get Peter King's panties in a bunch.

Let's Warp this poll!

Oh,,,,,,,,,,,The humanity of it all!

Catching 750 balls for a three-time Super Bowl winner and being the key guy in the locker room on game days ... that should make him a gimme.


jesus christ.

how about 888 for a three time SB winner and a leader in the locker room? What a riturdulous idiot King is. OMG what and idiot.

monk doesnt have a big mouth, never been arrested, and king hates the redskins. what did you guys expect him to say?

so 750 catches and 3 rings is a gimme, but 940 catches and 3 rings isn't... great math there.

just look at this queer....i wanna just punch him in his fat face


edit: I just wrote him an email that said
"In your article, you said, "Catching 750 balls for a three-time Super Bowl winner and being the key guy in the locker room on game days ... that should make him a gimme." How does that make Michael Irvin a gimme, but Art Monk, who caught 940 balls and won 3 superbowls, didn't even make the list. He had the most catches of all time when he retired. Stop being bias and just write and vote how you are supposed to. There is no way Michael Irvin should get in before Art Monk. Really Michael Irvin shouldn't get in at all or at least he should have to wait a while because he didn't do as well as Monk, and he played in a later time when receivers numbers were higher. You are a fat douchebag and I hate you."

His contention has alway's been Monk was never the best at his position in the league, and goes as far as to say he wasen't the best WR on his own team, but then he goes and makes a case for guys like Thomas who was never the best back in the league, all the while making a case for Ervin and how his leadership wouldn't allow his team to lose, yet not taking into account T.Thomas's lack of leadership that never allowed his team to win, and he can start with Thomas's losing his helmit at the start of the SB against us, which he was unable to start the game because of it.

So long as clowns like Peter King hold the key to the hall of fame how creditable is the nomination really?

Question how many NFL records do you have to break to get into the HOF? I know Monk broke more than all the players he mentioned getting the snub combigned!

I'm not against Thurman being a Hall of Famer necessarily, but that's a good point you make there

The only receiver who should get into the HOF before Monk is Jerry Rice.
