Emmitt Smith Enters the NFL Hall of Fame

The 2010 NFL Hall of Fame class is one of the greatest group of players to ever be inducted. The seven member class includes Emmitt Smith, Jerry Rice, John Randle, Dick LeBeau, Rickey Jackson, Russ Grimm and Floyd Little. Emmitt Smith, the dynamic running back, spent the better part of his career scoring touchdowns for the Dallas Cowboys. In 14 seasons he gained 18,355 yards and scored 164 touchdowns. Smith had 11 seasons that he accumulated over 1,000 yards and 78 games where he topped the 100 yard mark.

Emmitt Smith was the Dallas Cowboys main threat during their reign over the NFL in the 1990′s. As a part of the Triplets, with Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin, Emmitt Smith won three Super Bowls with the Dallas Cowboys. Aikman and Irvin, already in the NFL Hall of Fame, were recognized by Smith. He also had Daryl Johnston stand up and let everyone know much he appreciated him. “Most people only dream,” Smith said. “I not only had my childhood dream, I did everything I could to fulfill it. “You know what, I am now the all-time leading rusher. Wow. What an honor.”

BlackBerry Torch 9800 Review

  • Pros Looks and feels good. Lots of new features. Integrates social-networking well.

  • Cons Browser still slower than iPhone 4. Fewer games and apps than iOS or Android. Poor Microsoft Exchange integration for consumers.

  • Bottom Line The BlackBerry Torch is the very model of a modern messaging smartphone, although it doesn't beat the iPhone or Android on media and games.

    The new BlackBerry Torch 9800 with BlackBerry 6 keeps RIM in the smartphone game. It's the first truly usable touch screen BlackBerry, and it's packed with new features—a new Web browser, new apps, a new interface, and new social networking hooks. It might even save you money. Messaging is still clearly at this phone's core, though, unlike on flashier all-touch phones like the Apple iPhone 4 ($199.99-$699, ). That leaves the Torch a strong bet for those who type and chat all day, and still behind the leaders for those who prefer to game, surf the Web, or watch videos.
    There's a more subtle advantage to the Torch, too. Our other top AT&T phones tend to have a flashy, media-focused sheen that may not appeal to corporate customers. They also lack QWERTY keyboards. The Torch gives you a touch screen and excellent media features, but with the hard keyboard and serious BlackBerry attitude that may make it more welcome at work.
