John Madden about damn time!

You mean he wasn't in there until today?! Wow.

Anyways, how did Michael Irvin miss out once again?

Also, I'm glad that they took into consideration the fact that Warren Moon was a pro QB BEFORE the NFL, probably the best CFL QB there was, due to the fact that the man won 5 straight titles there.

Dammit. Irvin deserves to be in the hall. Who cares about the off the field stuff? Like Emmit Smith said, its not the life hall of fame, its the FOOTBALL hall of fame :mad:

That's quite interesting. No sign of Art Monk. You'd definitely have to consider someone who is in the top ten in all time receptions and receiving yards. Though he didn't play in one Super Bowl and only had one catch apiece in two others, he helped put the Redskins in position to make four Super Bowls. I guess there is still some sort of conspiracy against Monk.

Did Madden get in as a coach, broadcaster or contributor? Whatever the case, I think he deserves to get in as all three. You can't deny what he's done in and for the NFL. I credit him for teaching me a great deal about NFL football through his work in the booth when I was very young. It also didn't hurt that he was the second-winningest coach of all time behind Lombardi. I've always said if Bud Grant can get in (he deserves it, too), there should also be a place for Madden.

Did Madden get in as a Coach or as a contributor to the game? Or do they not specify in the NFL?

I don't know that what he did as a coach merits Hall of Fame status, only one Super Bowl win and an awful Conference Championship game record. Though he did have the best egular season record ever, I believe. But he certainly deserves in for what he's done for the NFL in terms of being the games face in a way.

edit: I will add that Monk got robbed.

Thankfully Reggie White got into the Hall, Reggie was a wonderful man who passed on far before he should have. Props to the Voting Committee.

Reggie would've been a first-ballot lock irrespective of his untimely death. He was a premier D-lineman for over a decade, won a Super Bowl and made a dozen or so Pro Bowls.

Monk did get robbed, but it's hard to pick him over anyone in this year's class. Better luck next year, Art.

In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

Madden is in as a Coach thanks to his career 103-32-7 record, also he won 7 division titles in 10 seasons.
