Mile High Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 With Thurman pre-hall voting. Talks about the Bills giving him a chance. And how he would rather have a ring then be in the Hall. Really good interview with Erik Kuselias from The Sports Bash. Interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv's Neighbor Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I guess every last one of us would rather Thurman had a Super Bowl Ring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I don't know about anyone else, but if given the choice between the 2, I'd take being in the HOF over a SB ring. Ideally having both would be nice, but being a HOF'er means you're a special player, whereas a lot of non-special players have a SB ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I would rather have a superbowl. I also listened to an interview earlier in the week with TD (Terrel Davis) and he said that he would much rather have his rings.

BillsWatch Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 If Thurman wants a Superbowl ring he can get one - just join the staff of a upcoming team. Not only players get rings but coaches, assistants, front office, etc. Rings are overrated for even backup players who do not even play in game get one.

Winning is great but I think I'd rather be remembered once I'm gone. Nobody is going to know who the hell Smith is 10 years from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is going to know who the hell Smith is 10 years from now. 594997[/snapback] 75 years from now, the only people who will remember Thurman or any of the 2006 HOF members are their aging children and grandchildren, who would have remembered them anyway. By that time there will be 1000 players in the HOF and only a few of them will remain relevant or recognizable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
