DMD Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Moss was a slam dunk. I'm glad they let Owens in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooty Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Can't argue with any of them. Thrilled and a bit surprised Dawkins made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The criticism is fair for Lewis cause ya murder and all, but of the 3 HoF wideouts (Moss, Owens, Harrison) Marvin is probably the most controversial off the field of the group. So the criticism of Moss and Owens (cause I really can't assume its Dawkins or Urlacher) comes off a little smug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 And Owens is wondering why he wasn't a first ballot HOF'r. And bitching and whining that it took this long (3yrs lol) to get in. Well....he just answered his own question. Countdown until NFL films does a reboot of "A Football Life - Terrell Owens" crying and expressing regret and remorse for not attending the ceremony. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunday Couch Potatoe Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 He was a terrible teammate while playing and is continuing that into his new team of the HOF.... Sounds about right to me once a diva always a diva 💁🏼♀️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboy Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 It's too bad TO didn't learn how to act classy from the rest of his 49er teammates (such as Jerry Rice, Steve Young, and others) when he was playing for the 49ers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboy Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Just a question for anyone-has any other player declined their invitation to be at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony?? I don't recall if this has ever happened before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe a player becomes eligible 5 years after retirement, Art Monk was eligible in 2001, waited 7 years before being inducted in 2008. Many guys go for years as a finalist, waiting and waiting for their turn. Just a few recent inductees with 5 or more times as a finalist (WRs in bold), quite a few great players there, none who turned down HOF invite 2018 - John Lynch(5), Jerry Kramer(11) 2016 - Kevin Greene(5) 2015 - Charles Haley (6), Tim Brown (6) 2014 - Ray Guy (8), Andre Reed(8), Claude Humphries(5) 2013 - Cris Carter(6) 2011 - Richard Dent(7) 2010 - Russ Grimm(5) 2009 - Derrick Thomas(5) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Just back from the festivities and a great weekend in Canton - first time there. Blown away by Brian Dawkins raw emotion all weekend long, culminated by an incredible speech. Also really loved Urlacher's speech and his love and passion for his family, teammates and friends. All of the inductees that we're present (can't speak for TO) made Sat night a very memorable one. Loved how Randy spoke about all of his teams and his time there. Was interesting to see that Kraft and Belichick showed up (but remained backstage) and how much Randy said that he valued he and Bill's relationship. Of course Ray preached and although many have their thoughts on him as a person, and his character (as posted in this thread), he belongs in the HOF and he is a great ambassador of the game to past, current and future players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XFlash Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 There are many great old school players yet to make it. I'm not understanding the reasoning why not get caught up to date or at least to withing the last 5 years. Then either you make it or you don't. Why the suspense? If they are good enough to make it, but not be on a ballot for a few years, what is the point? The Power flexing that many of the voters (sport reporters, beat writers, etc...I'm not sure who exactly gets a vote every year). Silly, much of this drama can be nipped at the bud.
