I know someone mentioned it in another post, but many people may not look there.

The last of the Super Bowl Cowboys is gone.

Sad to see him go, but injuries have plagued him the past couple of years. Definitley the best o-lineman of his time.

Larry Allen is a freaking road grader. I'll miss you big man. I also agree with Injured, dude can't move anymore. He was the best lineman of his time for his ability to run to the corner as well as his ability to destroy defensive tackles.

The man from Sonoma St. He opened some monster holes for Emmitt. Can he be cloned?

Larry Allen was a dominating force in his prime, and I appreciate his contributions to the Cowboys Super Bowl teams, but all good things must end, and it's "time" for Larry to retire. Thanks, Larry, for the Cowboy memories.

Thanks, Larry, for the Cowboy memories. Allen, like Eric Williams was dominating in their heydays, but time has passed Allen by now.

Larry Allen is still a top 5 lineman in the league, he won the NFL's strongest man award again last year, he should sign a pretty nice deal still with another team, and will be plenty productive still

The thing I remember most about Larry Allen is the boys throw an interception (shoking i know) against the Saints. A line backer picks it off about 20 yards downfield and starts towards the endzone. He runs probably 60 yards and looks like he is going to score and here come allen trucking down the field with the anglle and keeps him from scoring. Anytime a big load like that hustles you have to love him. I thought Larry was the best and will always be a personal fan but just like in Emmitts case you have to know when to hold em and know when to fold em.

I hate how people would dog him after all his contribution to the Cowboys in the 90's and even the last few years. It reminds me of when Aikmen was "Boed" by those who considered themselves Cowboy fans a few years back...
