that's why Irvin is in and DT is out....a sick joke

DT will get in....likely just before his eligibility runs out.

So does JoPo get the vote or present DT?

Buck O'neil shouldn't be in the hall of fame at all. According to the baseball rules for the HOF off the field activities don't count. Buck wasn't a HOF player on the field. But that being said I still think he belongs in the HOF because of what he did for the game. Fuk the rules. Put him in.

Here is the DT Hall of Fame media packet.

I think JoPo should be the one making DT's case to the voters instead of Gretz. ;)

You never know if their is a backlash from Gretz making the presentation. That have to know he's a tool of the Chiefs marketing department.

I feel it's more the bias media than Gretz.........

StcChief 02-06-2007 08:53 AM
Problem their likely aren't really any guidelines....

if it's his Stats, he would be in already.

Too many fuzzy intangeables thing to stop him.

The idea that guys like Dr. Z are selecting who deserves a spot in the HOF or not is a depressing thought.
We can certainly agree on that.

I'd make it a vote of the surviving past players and coaches, period. The fans and the media are going to screw it up every time.

Very good article

Great stat: 110-65-1 During the DT era!

All teams have a Gretz. No one is saying, oh that's just Carl Petersons flunky, forget him. All teams have press guys getting paid by the team, and some of them I'm sure make the case for HOF players.

Once again, Joe proves he's one of the best in the biz.

DT beats LT in more categories than not.

Sacks per game - more

Forced Fumbles - more

Fumble Recoveries - more

TD's - more

Safeties - more

If a guy can take that many categories away from LT, he is SURELY a HOFer.

Agreed. Of course, Dr. Z getting a vote doesn't bother me nearly as much as that asshat King getting a vote. That's just wrong.

Brock 02-06-2007 09:48 AM
Dr. Z actually has endorsed Derrick Thomas as HOF worthy. If you didn't play for the Jets, Giants, or Patriots, King doesn't care about you.
