You guys done good. Three minute standing O for Art. The announcers said they've never seen that

Lord knows he deserves it after all this time

I clock it 4:11

And I heard 3 Chants

"Speach"

"Its About Time"

and something else.......(with "Art" in it)

Anybody know what the third chant was?

A few thoughts on the ceremony.

First, A BIG shout out to the extremeskiners and all the Redskins fans who went up to Canton to support our inductees. The standing O for Art showed the rest of the NFL how we do it. Best fans out there (I LOVED the "recognition" of Michael Irvin).

Second, I love me some Joe Jackson Gibbs. The first thing out of his mouth is ALWAYS props to the fans. He more than anyone gets it. He gets what football in Washington means, and is never shy to talk about it.

Last, Garry Clark's money. He's a mini Joe Gibbs when it comes to recognizing how special the Redskins are. He's our #1 cheerleader, and will always be a hall of fame caliber guy in my opinion.

Hail to the Redskins, on a great night to be a Skins fan.

. Maybe God exists after all? ;)

:rotflmao: Now there is someone to pray for right there!

How awesome that 4 out of 6 of these great athletes gave glory to God who blessed them with their talent. What wonderful role models we Skins fans have in the HOF.

My only thing was I wish Art didn't forget to thank Coach Joe. :(

The response for Art was down right moving. With a three minute standing ovation, Art is still setting records :D What an amazing day for the Redskins Nation.

On a side note, now we have to start pushing the buttons for Chris Hanburger ;)

Hi

I am in line leaving the stadium headed to our cars. It was amazing to be here. The emotion in the stadium and the cheers for Monk and Green was amazing to see. We will post lots of pics when we get back. The sea of B&G is amazing.

I was thinking of the same and Gibbs was all excited about the plays the guys made and it looked like DG and AM were trying to figure out what play Gibbs was talking about. Gibbs does have a great memory.:notworthy Most people don't know what they did yesterday.

Good news everybody, the NFL network is gonna update us on the Brett Favre situation

With apologies to Motley Crue. :)

Nothin' left to do

Too many things were said

To ever make it feel

Like yesterday did

Seasons must change

Separate paths, separate ways

If we blame it on anything

Let's blame it on the rain

I knew it all along

I'd have to write this song

Too old to start at QB

Guess we knew it all along

That's alright, that's okay

We were walkin' through some youth

Smilin' through some painfull INTs

That's alright, that's okay

Let's turn the page

My friends called today

Down from L.A.

They were talking trades all night

Practicing half of the day

They said you could play

If you could find your own way

I told them you were leaving

On a bus to go away

That's alright, that's okay

We were fans in love

Trying to find our way

That's alright, that's okay

Held our Lombardis in our hands

Let our minds run away

That's alright, now that's okay

We were walkin' through some youth

Smilin' through some INTs

That's alright, let's turn the page

And remember what I say Brett

And it goes this way

Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away

Brett, don't go away mad

Now Brett, just go away

Here we go

Don't go away mad

I don't want you to stay, Yeah

Come on, Brett

Come on, baby

I'll say it one more time

Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away

Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away yeah, yeah

Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away, Yeah

Now I said Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away

Now I said Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away, yeah

Brett, don't go away mad

Brett, just go away...

Looking forward to hearing all the first-hand accounts from everyone who attended. Great job of representing the entire fan base.

The ESPN announcers said it was 4 minutes. Was it 3? A historical moment. Can't wait to hear from our ES'ers who were there.
From the moment his Son stopped until Monk started to speak I have at about 4:16....this includes the unveiling of the bust

From speach to speach.....over 4 minutes
