I like the fact that the Seahawks retired his number the same day he retired. Class act by them. ;-D

First ballot HOF? :-?

Absolutely.

He's been mentioned as the greatest LT to ever play and also one of the greatest offensive players ever to play.

ESPN said today that he only had 9 holding calls in 13 years. Wow! Could that possibly be true? Incredible career.
