2014 Semifinalists for the Hall of Fame
You can add Claude Humphrey and Ray Guy as the senior candidates.
This seems like a pretty weak pool to me. Will Shields should go in this year without a doubt. http://www.profootballhof.com/footba...finalists.aspx The Hall of Fame’s Selection Committee chose the 25 modern-era semifinalists from the previously announced list of 126 nominees. Four first-year eligible candidates – linebacker Derrick Brooks, coach Tony Dungy, wide receiver Marvin Harrison, and tackle Walter Jones – are among the 25 semifinalists being considered for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2014. In addition to the first-year eligible nominees, two other previously eligible candidates, coach Jimmy Johnson and guard Steve Wisniewski, made it to the semifinalist list for the first time. Each of the remaining individuals on the Selection Committee’s list has been a semifinalist at least once prior to this year. 2014 SEMIFINALISTS Morten Andersen, K – 1982-1994 New Orleans Saints, 1995-2000, 2006-07 Atlanta Falcons, 2001 New York Giants, 2002-03 Kansas City Chiefs, 2004 Minnesota Vikings Steve Atwater, S – 1989-1998 Denver Broncos, 1999 New York Jets Jerome Bettis, RB – 1993-95 Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams, 1996-2005 Pittsburgh Steelers Derrick Brooks, LB – 1995-2008 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tim Brown, WR/KR – 1988-2003 Los Angeles/Oakland Raiders, 2004 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Don Coryell, Coach – 1973-77 St. Louis Cardinals, 1978-1986 San Diego Chargers Roger Craig, RB – 1983-1990 San Francisco 49ers, 1991 Los Angeles Raiders, 1992-93 Minnesota Vikings Terrell Davis, RB – 1995-2001 Denver Broncos Edward DeBartolo, Jr., Owner – 1977-2000 San Francisco 49ers Tony Dungy, Coach – 1996-2001 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 2002-08 Indianapolis Colts Kevin Greene, LB/DE – 1985-1992 Los Angeles Rams, 1993-95 Pittsburgh Steelers, 1996, 1998-99 Carolina Panthers, 1997 San Francisco 49ers Charles Haley, DE/LB – 1986-1991, 1999 San Francisco 49ers, 1992-96 Dallas Cowboys Marvin Harrison, WR – 1996-2008 Indianapolis Colts Joe Jacoby, T – 1981-1993 Washington Redskins Jimmy Johnson, Coach – 1989-1993 Dallas Cowboys, 1996-99 Miami Dolphins Walter Jones, – T – 1997-2008 Seattle Seahawks John Lynch, FS – 1993-2003 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 2004-07 Denver Broncos Karl Mecklenburg, LB – 1983-1994 Denver Broncos Andre Reed, WR – 1985-1999 Buffalo Bills, 2000 Washington Redskins Will Shields, G – 1993-2006 Kansas City Chiefs Michael Strahan, DE – 1993-2007 New York Giants Paul Tagliabue, Commissioner – 1989-2006 National Football League Aeneas Williams, CB/S – 1991-2000 Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals, 2001-04 St. Louis Rams Steve Wisniewski, G – 1989-2001 Los Angeles/Oakland Raiders George Young, Contributor – 1968-1974 Baltimore Colts, 1975-78 Miami Dolphins, 1979-1997 New York Giants, 1998-2001 National Football League Last edited by Rain Man; 11-21-2013 at 12:50 PM.. |

Put David Tyree in the Hall of Fame! He has a ring and had that amazing helmet catch, that means he's "transcendent!" /Dane

And I can absolutely guarantee you that as a SoCal resident since 1993, I saw LaDanian Tomlinson in more games, likely at least tenfold, than you.
And I can say, without a shred of a doubt, that I was not as impressed by his play on the field as his stats indicate. He doesn't pass the eye test, IMO, like a Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith or even Priest Holmes. |

How is one any more "transcendent" than the other? Let me guess the real reason: Gonzalez was a Chief for most of his career, LT was on a division rival.

And, I've given several reasons why I wouldn't vote for him, regardless of your stats. |

He's going to the Hall. Period. He's probably going to go in within the first 3 ballots, if not the first. But I'm sure your opinion will be far more knowledgeable than those guys...

My "opinion" will be far more "knowledgeable"? That doesn't even make sense. |

Yeah, the Haley thing is confounding.
That guy was one of the first player I recall watching and just being amazed by how clearly physically superior he was to everyone else on the field. If we're counting rings, Haley was a five time SB champion and likely the best player on the defense for at least 4 of those. Haley to the Cowboys may have done as much to swing the balance of power in the NFC as anything.

My apologies. I'm sure your opinion will be more informed than the HoF selection committee's will be.

The HOF is a colossal waste of time and arguing about it with some overweight slob living in his mom's basement is pointless. Academy awards, Emmy's, Avn's, CMA's, PRO Bowls, All Star games are time occupiers for people with no life and no personal accomplishments. Their biggest achievement was finishing 1st on a Battlefield 4 level.
Opinions from a douche that has Andre Reed's pole in his throat are worthless. |
