Not really much argument here, although I'd flip Prime Time and Favre. No argument for #1.  8)

"But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of the negro poor has worsened over the last twelve or fifteen years. It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity." - Martin Luther King, Jr

no surprise, I agree with you norm, I would flip Prime and Favre.  It's hard to see Rice at 3, but when you see Emmitt at 2...well, its almost like a 2a 2b in random order to me and of course, zero argument with Sanders at 1.
I agree with the author on Aikman/Young.  Young was the more talented QB and had the numbers.  Both had supporting talent; coaches and players.  Aikman did do better in the big games, but all the way through, yea, Id have to go with whats on the list.
I'd try to find a higher spot for Thomas though, just no where to put him.  I always think of how Eddie Van Halen expanded on what Henrix did; same with Thomas who picked up where LT left off.
thanks for posting
