re: Pro Football HoF Semifinalists announced

Manning, C. Woodson and MegaTron are locks.

I would like to see Wayne, Mills and Faneca get in.

As for Safeties- I would go Butler then D Woodson/lynch are close

Arena Football had a separate Hall of Fame

FIBA and NCAA basketball have separate HoFs but performances in the olympics and in those leagues still contribute to the Naismith HoF consideration as well, that's pretty much the only reason Melo is going to get in.

And like I said before I was never going to bring it up until someone else did

This is the most Lester Earl-ing I’ve seen in a thread in a while. I’ll give you the same advice I usually give him: Just take the “L,” shut the frick up, and get the frick out.

Oh, just FYI imho fwiw gtfo, Calvin Johnson shouldn’t get in this year or maybe ever. But Kurt Warner deserved to pimp-walk in. Let’s not pretend that luck and circumstances don’t play huge roles in players’ legacies. It may be unfair, but it’s the truth. Your career is what it is, not what it would or could have been in different circumstances. It is exactly what it is. That’s why Warner waltzes into the yearly Hall of Famers’ Balls, while Megatron, from the bushes, peers obstructed, through the blinds, outside.

You still haven't addressed Steve Young. What's your opinion on him? He posted some sad arse seasons in Tampa, then San Fran brought him in to ride the bench behind Montana, and then he has about 7 seasons of good QBing.

Young and Warner have the same # of rings as starters (yeah Young has extra rings as a backup but they don't count as furs on his wall), and same # of MVPs, with about the same caliber of a surrounding cast

Also Warner made SBs with 2 teams. Young looked great in the Bill Walsh West Coast offense (and even post Walsh it was a lot of the same personnel and scheme they had been running under Walsh) that already had 4 rings before Young took over, but sad in Tampa. So that argument about Warner only being good when he has good teams around him can apply to Young too.


I think both Young and Warner had similar careers, both deserving of the hall. I want to know what your verdict on Young is given your opinion of Warner.

Every time I see Willie “Flipper” Anderson’s name, I have nightmares from when he skull-fricked the Saints secondary catching 15 passes for 336 yds. IMO, the only reason why Anderson is still on the HOF list is because of this single game NFL record statistic.

Lol if fred taylor gets in he would be ,by far,the most controversial player in the whole hof..meaning should he be in or not.
not like hes a controversial player off the field or anything

Was in the Dome that night. It was just uncanny.

Anderson never came close to that before or after. The NFL Bob Beamon.
