Evil G Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 The Class has officially been announcedJerome BettisTim BrownCharles HaleyJunior SeauWill ShieldsMick Tinglehoff (senior)Bill Polian (contributor)Ron Wolf (contributor)It's debatable whether Kurt Warner got snubbed or not, but overall I think it's a pretty good class. I'm happy Bettis got in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I know as a Viking fan, I'm biased, but it's about damn time Mick Tinglehoff got in. One of the best two or three centers of his era. Nice to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one of them in one way or another left pro football better than when they joined it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Pleasantly surprised Wolf got in. Always thought he'd be just on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started 16 games every year except his rookie year when he started 15. I only vaguely remembered him, but he's completely worthy of induction.

Nice to see.Agreed - and I'm not biased. He was one of the best centers of his era. And it is about time. As for the rest of the class, I can't say I agree with any of them.

2001mark Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Marvin Harrison >>> Jerome Bettis As for Kurt Warner, he seems like the new bench warmer who will be guaranteed induction one day yet will require a weaker field to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Warner is a sentimental favorite, but I still feel like he should be in. I know it's borderline, but his story is just so compelling. He was one helluva QB, too. How in the world Marvin Harrison keeps getting snubbed is beyond me. The bar shooting thing has to be what's keeping him out. No way a guy with those kind of numbers doesn't deserve a spot in the hall. Him and Tim Brown both should've gotten in last year (over Carter). Orlando Pace, too. That dude was the best lineman in the league for YEARS. Overall, I'm really not a fan of this HOF class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Pace, Dungy, and Warner will all get in sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigers6884 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I don't get why people make a big deal out of the Marvin Harrison shooting and use it as a reason to keep him out of the Hall of Fame. I mean Ray Lewis was able to get a job at ESPN when his playing days were over and everyone assumes that he'll be a lock for the Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible, right?

Evil G Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 The reason Harrison isn't getting in is probably because there were better WRs those years. Andre Reed and Tim Brown. He'll get in next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll get in next year.Was there another Tim Brown who played in the NFL that I'm not aware of? I ask because the one I'm familiar with was a pretty good player but he didn't seem like a HOF caliber player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Just a thought, but they might be holding off on inducting additional GSOT players until after the move to Los Angeles is official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rams80 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Why would they do that? It would be tying in the return of the Rams to LA with a celebration of the franchise's past. That's the kind of the NFL's media advisers would go gaga over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
