Around the NFL: Omission of the decade

Frank Gore took another step towards the Hall of Fame earlier in the week, when the league named him to its All-Decade team. But I don’t think they got it right. When I look at the numbers, I don’t see him as even one of the top 10 backs of the just-completed decade.  more »
