I almost feel bad for Young....almost...

i didn't feel bad for him at all - in fact my respect for him diminished today - i saw dan and the fans steal steve's thunder today - did you notice how much he made it a point to say that nothing in his life including the hof ceremony will compare to winning the superbowl - sounded like a passive-aggressive stab to me...

That's so true! I listened to young's speech again, and you're right. He is just jealous, because for his final appearance on the grand stage of football, "shorty" is holding a clipboard and wishing he was the starter! BOOYA!
 
Why were there so few 9er fans? i thought it would be much more split than that, like 60-40 Miami fans not 90-10! which is what it looked like, poor Steve got over shadowed because the Miami fans wanted to see Marino much more. Oh well....no problem for me
 
Art Monk definitely deserves to be in the Hall before Steve. Art THEN steve because 1 Super Bowl and the highest QB rating is impressive.

Young acknowledged Marino early on in his speech by saying he was honored to be on the same stage as Dan. Young is by all accounts a good guy. The speech of Young's father was simply horrible, I didn't think it would ever end. But it was Dan's day, and I dare say Young wasn't the only Hall of Fame QB watching who wished they had the love and admiration of their fans the way Danny does his.
 
I dont feel bad for young, Marino deserved it! im not goona feel bad for young just because there were 85% of fins fan and the rest were 9er fans, Look at last year HOF, Elway had more fans their then Sanders. Also Marino was the head of the class. Also the reason ESPN made it look like young is so much better than marino is cause young works for espn
 
Feel bad for Steve Young? Why? He's in the HOF now!

Yeah, I know...he backed up Joe forever and today he was Dan's backup basically. But he is in the HOF. If you want to feel bad for someone, feel bad for Michael Irvin who missed out in his first attempt. He's not in the Hall yet. You think he would have minded say, giving his speech in between the four QBs who went in today? I'm sure he would have been glad to be third in line today for entrance into the Hall. Now who knows when he'll get in. Will it be next year? Well, just looking at the first time candidates for enshrinement, you've got Troy Aikman, Thurman Thomas, Reggie White, Warren Moon and Andre Reed. So guess what? Michael might wait a while now.

No, I don't feel bad for Steve Young today, he's in the HOF now. Whether you go up those steps first or last or in between doesn't matter. You're IN.
 
After seeing and hearing both inductions, I came away more imressed than ever with Dan's ability to plat to a crowd, but even MORE impressed with the job his son did on his intro speach. He showed a LOT of poise and spoke from his heart.
