Mike Alstott: Hall of Fame?

People keep saying TB FB Mike Alstott should be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I decided to compare his career to Herschel’s NFL career AFTER Walker was traded to the Vikings – when Herschel was no longer the featured offensive threat for Minnesota, the Giants, Eagles, and Cowboys…when Walker played fullback and special teams. Alstott played 19 more games, but the stats are almost equal – unless you add in Herschel’s 5084 return yards (Alstott only had 43 return yards).

This doesn’t include Herschel’s rushing and receiving yards in his first 3.3 seasons with the Cowboys, which were as good as anyone in the NFL, when he gained 5706 yards in 49 games. That 116.5 yard per game average was only bettered by Jim Brown and Billy Sims.

Is Crackerjack the movie on Amazon Prime? Kind of a Napoleon Dynamite plays church softball. Produced and directed by my friend Bryan Coley, featuring Jeff Foxworthy, Paul Byrd, and Lanny Donahoo.

In 1942, C. S. Lewis wrote his most famous paragraph in his classic, Mere Christianity: I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic—or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon, or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher.
