And comparing the sports isn't really all it's cracked up to be. The Baseball HOF has a much longer richer history that the Pro FHOF.
I'm not comparing sports, just pointing out how dumb some voters are

It's just some voters private statement of protest.
Like the old saying, why is one guy a HOFer one year but not the other 5 years he was on the ballot?
Some people maybe don't think Manning is the GOAT...and maybe don't want to make that statement...because of his post-season chokiness.
Or just like with Irvin not getting 1st ballot HOF.
Obviously rational minds clearly indicate that Manning should receive 100% vote if voted on by MLB writers...because he's a slam-dunk HOFer...and him spending a year in retirement doesn't change anything.
But...MLB likes to make statements with their ballot.
As does the NFL...with Irvin...dude was a clear HOFer - no reason he should have had to wait.
