Well said. I also wanted him to come to the Skins.

Yep, definietly a 1st ballot guy. One of the funnest running backs ive ever been able to watch. I feel like the dude was ridiculously consitant too. During his prime, basically before the Jets, he was great every game.

In addition to his prodigious on-field accomplishments, LT has been a good citizen and an ambassador for the game.

I have only had the opportuity to meet him and inteact with him twice; that is a small sample but in those two situations I would have to say that he is a gentleman and a fundamentally "good-guy".

Add those dimensions to his on-field accomplishments and he should be a 1st ballot HoF inductee when his time comes.
