Can’t wait to hear the annual Reddit discourse of how most of these elite athletes in the upper 1% of all players who have ever gone pro don’t even deserve to be considered for Canton.
Anywho, if I was on the committee and could vote for nine of these fellas, my votes would go:
Julius Peppers- He’s gonna be first ballot.
Antonio Gates- If he’s not first ballot, what are we doing?
Torry Holt- He’s been a semifinalist ten times, just let him in already!
Darren Woodson- It’s his last year of eligibility before going to the senior ballot, and he was such an important part of the Dallas dynasty.
Steve Smith- Probably should have been first ballot last year.
Fred Taylor- He’s the best eligible RB not in the Hall, and Canton doesn’t have to worry about the salary cap.
Devin Hester- The Hall should recognize at least one player from every part of the game, and Hester is unquestionably the best returner we have/will ever see.
James Harrison- He will not go into the Hall because he’s an a-hole who pissed off too many people, but he was an absolute menace and is responsible for the most important play in Super Bowl history (sorry, David Tyree).
Hines Ward- Also will not go in, and maybe shouldn’t go in, but he’s way higher on a lot of stat sheets than most seemingly want to acknowledge, has that Super Bowl MVP, and made the NFL change its blocking rules.
