Dent falls short of Hall again
For the sixth time in seven years former Bears defensive end Richard Dent, the franchise's all-time leading sacker, made it to the finals but not into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The final list of 15 modern-era nominees was pared down by the 44-member Hall of Fame selection committee that met Saturday morning at the Super Bowl XLIV media center. The selectors first pared the list from 15 to 10, and Dent made the first cut along with center Dermontti Dawson, defensive tackle Cortez Kennedy, wide receiver Andre Reed and tight end Shannon Sharpe. Each finalist had to receive a minimum positive vote of 80 percent to be elected.
Guard Russ Grimm, linebacker Rickey Jackson, defensive tackle John Randle, wide receiver Jerry Rice and running back Emmitt Smith were the five finalists for the Class of 2010.
Dent spent 11 seasons with the Bears and was the MVP of the 46-10 Super Bowl XX victory over the Patriots.


Campbell will cost the Hawks dearly in the playoffs,if he is around. I have never seen a hockey player exert so much effort to avoid a check. While avoiding the check he has no regard of the puck(yikes I gotta get rid of it)-also when he attempts a check the only thing missing is him saying ....excuse me I do not mean to bother you....the only effort he puts forth is when he is shooting---otherwise he just stands around hoping not to get hit either being the hitter or hiteee---He will cost the Hawks dearly---
He already cost Richard Dent a Hall of Fame ring.
