Football 2014 Finalists for the Hall of Fame - Page 4

I bet the NFL goes and gives those guys concussions. They're costing them some TV ratings.

Eh, I think all of the finalists have them. I couldn't find others with a search, but I found them by randomly changing Player IDs.

That makes three so far ... RT @RVacchianoNYDN: Two sources now tell me that Michael Strahan is in the @ProFootballHOF Class of 2014. #NYG

If Will Shields isn't in, I'm going to go start a fire somewhere. Probably in Canton.

Walter Jones. Was he really better than Will Shields?

I'm thinking if Shields were a LT he'd be an easy pick..

What more could Will Shields do over Walter Jones? He never missed a game, made 12 pro bowls, and played multiple positions, including left tackle, when needed. Neither of them got a ring, and it wasn't their fault. He should be a no-brainer pick over Jones.

Fact is Tackles always make it over Guards...maybe not right, but a fact. Outside of specialist I would bet guard has the fewest inductees by position.

Tight ends and centers are underrepresented, but tackles and guards are pretty close in number.

Al Bundy · 02-01-2014, 06:06 PM

That is number 2 off that Superbowl Winning team for the Bucs. Ronde Barber will make it 3.

**Rain Man** · 02-01-2014, 06:19 PM

Wow, I hate the NFL. Bunch of mf'ing boneheads. It's official.

They put in:

Derrick Brooks
Walter Jones
Andre Reed
Michael Strahan
Aeneas Williams

and both Claude Humphrey and Ray Guy.

Screw you, NFL. Strahan got in because he does Subway commercials. And Jones got in over Shields? Will Shields ate mortals like Walter Jones as halftime snacks. You know that Jones got in just so they could talk about it in the Super Bowl. It's all marketing.

Rams Fan · 02-01-2014, 09:51 PM

Aeneas Williams FTW

**Rain Man** · 02-02-2014, 10:10 PM

The fact that Walter Jones got in is proof that the game is rigged. The HoF knew that the Seahawks would win and were just riding the bandwagon.
