he really sounded sincere and was obviously emotional when inducted. i think it was the most raw honest acceptance speech i ever heard. now lets hope he walks the walk.

I know he hasn't exactly been a role model and standup guy, but I don't know how anyone couldn't get more than a little choked up at that speech. He's obviously been through a lot, and he seems to appreciate more than most the place that he's earned.
I haven't always liked him on the field or in the booth, but I give him credit for opening up and being honest. That was a speech for the ages.

By far the best speech on any level I've ever heard. This guy has charisma that not even Magic Johnson can compare to. Performance or 100% from the heart, that was special. If it was unscripted, Michael Irvin may be more special than we want to believe.

There was a brief moment when the United States Crack Dealers Association (USCDA) was moved to the point of tears. For a moment they were struck with a horrible feeling that Michael Irvin would never purchase crack cocaine again. Their bad feeling was subsided later that night when Irvin purchase 135 grams of crack rock from his local distribution point.

I agree with junior. His speech was a bunch of B.S. The guy doesn't even belong in the HOF to begin with. I'm not a Cowboys or Redskins fan but Art Monk keeps on getting screwed by the HOF.

Even as a life long Cowboys hater, I gain alot of respect for Irvin after hearing his speech.
Very powerful words he spoke.

He was heart-felt and contrite. Tony Kornheiser on PTI said it was in some respects the finest day in his career. I think Irvin did it exactly right.

I wasn't. Dope addicts are capable of being the most sincere sounding people you have ever heard.
