Emmitt Smith admits he’s ““““`’ over Bill Belichick’s Hall of Fame snub

ByNBAUSA



With the world of sports being talked about scolding that Bill Belichick is not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first go around, many legends and Hall of Famers spoke about the news. As it is drama with Belichick and the Hall of Fame sure to continue, one legend who has given his opinion on the matter is the former quarterback Emmitt Smith.

There’s no denying the resume Smith has as a running back in the league, spending most of his career with the Dallas Cowboys, amassing 18,355 yards and 164 rushing touchdowns, both NFL records. When asked about the news that Belichick was not a first-ballot Hall of Famer, he would explain why “livid” on ESPN’s “First Shot.”

“I’m angry. I’m absolutely angry because what you’re seeing is the hypocrisy that’s going on with some of these writers and so forth,” Smith said. “People are angry about certain things, whether he wanted to talk to you or not, whether he gave you the right answer. Everyone who voted, and here’s the problem, I don’t like people voting and their votes not being revealed, who did it and why.”

“Because I think you journalists have a right to ask, why did you vote the way you did? … You’re diluting something that’s very special,” Smith continued.

With New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft joined Belichick as a Hall of Fame snub, the two were part of a combined six Super Bowls, making their resumes strong. Stephen A. Smith would argue that it sets the stage for Tom Bradyconsidered by many to be the greatest quarterback of all time, would also be dismissed as a first-ballot candidate, prompting Smith to question why he’s in the Hall of Fame.

“I don’t even know why I’m in it. If he’s not a first-round pick, I don’t even know why I’m in it. Because at the end of the day, you’re talking about people who have done things the game has never seen before. Nobody on the planet has more rings than Tom Brady and Bill Belichick,” Smith said.

There’s no denying that Smith and many others are angry that Belichick was snubbed.
