Emmitt Smith: 90s Cowboys & Making NFL History | Undeniable with Joe Buck

If you truly love the sport of football... you have to respect what Emmitt Smith accomplished. Fifteen seasons as a starting RB in the NFL is no joke!

Emmitt was my 1st sports HERO.. At age 50 now, He still is my HERO! There is no 2ed!

A touching moment I believe is when during Emmitt Smiths HOF induction speech, he choked up with emotion while referring to Darryl "Moose" Johnston blocking for him apparently many times, noting all the physical sacrifices he made doing so, those 90's Cowboy teams were probably some of the best ever. A great humble guy and a tremendous role model for anyone aspiring to achieve anything in the world of sports, regardles if which one it is

My family and I had a chance to meet Emmitt Smith at an autograph show in Chicago in 2022. He took a picture with us and also signed us an autograph. I will never forget it. Much respect to him.

50 year Big D Cowboy fan here. One thing unmistakable about Emmitt is, he not only a great football player, a NFL Hall of Famer, but more important, is that he is a great person! I got misty eyed several times in this interview! best to you Emmitt moving forward what ever you do! This nation needs more like him in all walks of life!

Growing up watching the Cowboys in the 90s, Emmitt was my favorite player. He's the reason I became a Florida Gator fan. I just had my first son at 32 years old, and I named him Emmitt. Sports runs deep!

I was on the game when Emmitt broke the all-time rushing record. It took a lot of calculation (and some luck) to buy tickets ahead of time to be there. The energy in Texas Stadium was out of this world.

My Pensacola Home town hero. I used to watch him play when I was in middle school and he was a big star at Escambia High School. I lived about 3-4 blocks away and would walk to the home games. I am not a Gator fan, nor am I a Dallas fan, but my Vikings gave the Cowboys the opportunity to draft Emmitt in 1990 (Herschel Walker Trade) and for that I am happy. While Emmitt and his family were always respected around the city, Mom and Dad still worked at "normal jobs" while their son was tearing up the NFL. I am proud of Pensacola's hometown heroes (including Derrick Brooks and Roy Jones Jr. even Roman Reigns WWE wrestler and many more) from such an average size town, we have our share of super stars.

Emmitt had a sports card and memorabelia store in Pensacola that his folks ran .... When I was a kid , my folks traveled and did trade shows nationwide , everytime I was with them and we were down there , I made them stop in ... His dad was an awesome man , and they always teased me about being a Packer fan ... Great family and great people ..... Just like Emmitt ....

Wow that part with Walter is crazy.

I love Emmitt he is one of the greats. He is definitely in my opinion the pound for pound the toughest running back ever. pure heart and sole. I've always been a Cowboy fan T. Dorsett and sweetness. were my idols growing up. Emmitt put the youth back in me again watching him play. I will never forget that Giants game when he got hurt, and kept going. Simply the best.

Emmitt was my childhood hero. What a pleasure it was to watch him play as i was starting to get into football. Class personified!

Haters don't understand the loyalty of Cowboy fans. I had goose bumps when Emmett said he watched the Cowboys as a child. I didn't know anything about football when the Cowboys joined the league, but I became a fan because I was captivated by the star. I wasn't quite 7 then, but I've been a life-long fan at age 67. No other team will ever come close to their success, past, present, or future. God bless you, Emmett Smith

Emmitt and Elway Were my childhood heroes. I wore number 22 starting in the eighth grade until my junior year in high school. I played tailback and always wanted to be like Emmitt Smith.

Forever the Goat of Rushing!!!

Emmitt one of the best offensive line , some say the best, in the history of the game !

Cowboy fan since 1977 this is truely one of the greatest Cowboy players of all times loved Emmitt desire to win and compete!!

Some truly good comments in here. Respect to those who praise Emmitt! 👏 as he is deserving of it!

Incredible. I used to watch him as a kid with my family, all hardcore cowboys fans, growing up. He is a legend and an inspiration to us all

Much R.E.S.P.E.C.T. for Emmitt as a Football player but most of all a Man of Faith
