Emmitt Smiths probably THE best running back in the history of football, holding the record for all time rushing. No. 22 for the Dallas Cowboys in the 90s during the Cowboys dynasty where 5 Super Bowls were won together with QB Troy Aikman. Ahh those were the years where I was a Cowboys fan before my college years in Pittsburgh turned me Black and Gold (it’s unavoidable, anyone who ever lived in Pittsburgh becomes a Steelers fan eventually.)

Emmit has been in the news again - this time not for his ability on the gridiron, but for his skills on the dance floor! In the latest season of Dancing with the Stars on ABC, Emmitt and his professional dance partner Cheryl Burke blew through the competition wooing judges the whole way. Last night was the finals, Emmitt went head to head against Mario Lopez (a.k.a. AC Slater from Saved By the Bell). Both teams delivered near flawless performances, and the judges’ decisions were a TIE! Then it was up to America to send in their votes, and I can’t believe it! Emmitt wins!! Woohoo!! Despite Super Mario’s dimples and break-dancing moves, the rest of America voted for the underdog!! I mean Mario definitely had some dance training or just the good Latin gene before entering the contest so it would be like me entering “Survivor: Math Island”, lol it just wouldn’t been fair even if Mario won. But he didn’t, and Emmitt did - HOTT!
