When will Jerry Jones be inducted?

By Todd Archer | ESPNDallas.com


CANTON, Ohio – Larry Allen became the fifth Cowboy of the Jerry Jones’ era to earn induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, joining Michael Irvin, Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Deion Sanders.

Jones has been among the group considered for the Hall of Fame in recent years and should one day be enshrined in Canton for his tenure as the Cowboys owner and general manager.

He has presented Irvin, Smith and Allen for induction. Perhaps one day his sons, Stephen or Jerry Jr., or daughter, Charlotte, will present him for induction.

Stephen Jones, the Cowboys executive vice president, has thought about the day his father goes into the Hall.

“He should be, in my opinion, for what he’s done for the game,” Stephen Jones said. “Obviously I’m biased being his son, but what he’s done for the NFL and the passion he has for the game, you just hope he gets the chance. And I’m sure he will, but you never take something like that for granted. Obviously there’s no bigger fan than myself for my father to one day get that opportunity.”

Hopefully, it will be posthumously.

Oh, he'll get in. Not for his GM role, however.

 

[L.T. Fan]

If he goes into the HOF It will be as owner and GM.

If so, they should burn the HoF down then.

 

[Smitty]

If he goes into the HOF It will be as owner and GM.

It will probably mention it, but he'll be remembered as owner, not GM.

I would rather he be indicted

It will probably mention it, but he'll be remembered as owner, not GM.

On his description plate it will say GM and owner. That is if he gets in.

 

[L.T. Fan]

I can always seem to find a button to push.

 

[Bob Roberts]

I'd put him in only if we can beat him with his bust

The sad truth of it is you can't write the history of the NFL without mentioning Jerry Jones. He made a large list of business innovations and on paper won 3 Superbowls. But he has to be nominated to get in, and no one wants to do that while his egomaniacal ass is still alive.

I don't think anyone could take looking at the SEG on that turd's face as he took the podium.
