Smith, who played for the Arizona Cardinals the last two seasons, plans to go out, however, as part of the franchise that made him a superstar and a Super Bowl champion. The Dallas Morning News reported that Smith would like to officially retire as a member of the Dallas Cowboys.
"I will, in some way, shape or form (retire as a Cowboy)," Smith told the paper.

Smith played his first 13 seasons with the Cowboys, helping them to win three Super Bowls. In 2002, his last season in Dallas, Smith became the most prolific runner in NFL history, breaking the record formerly held by Bears legend Walter Payton.

Smith rushed for 937 yards for the Cardinals in 2004, giving him 18,355 for his career, more than 1,600 more than Payton.

According to a report in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, Smith may not stay away from the NFL for long. After his retirement becomes official, Smith is expected to join an investment group interested in purchasing the Minnesota Vikings.

I feel like that episode of the Simpsons when Krusty announces his retirement:

"Why now Krusty...why not 20 years ago?!!"

Better than watching my team pack up and move to Indianpolis and then have to blackmail Art Modell into moving a beloved team out of their home to a drug infested crabcake eating south Philadelphia suburb.

Was one of the greatest runners ever to play the game, and also his vision was the best. 3rd and 1 it was money in the bank. what a career.

I know you are playing. I will be dead and gone and he will still have the all time rushing record. he was a winner and he has proof.

I am not playing I am dead serious.

anyone could of ran behind the line he ran behind in the 90's. put barry sanders in dallas and he would have easily broken the record in the 8 SEASONS he played.

you think those Denver RB's are holl of famers ? or could it possibly be the offensive line ?

it works both ways.....rb is made better by good O line and good RB can make O line look good....

While Emmitt did have a great line, he was also a great RB.
