The_Admiral Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Howie Long's invaluable contributions to Radio Shack awareness make him a lock for the Hall. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 About half of my favorite all-time team could probably go on this list - the '02 Angels. I mean, take a look:- Alex Ochoa- Orlando Palmeiro- Jose Molina- Ben Weber, although he's got one of my all-time favorite windups- Jeff DaVanon- Shawn Wooten- Brad Fullmer- Scott Spezio- Jerrod Washburn. He had one heck of a 2002, but hasn't done didley-poo since- Jose Nieves- Scott Schoenweis- Aaron Sele- Alfredo AmezagaYou could probably throw in Kennedy and Eckstein, but they've more than proven themselves in my book.

Mings Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 The Lions O-Line when Barry Sanders was there. They didn't even have to do half the job they were paid to do. Barry opened his own holes and lanes to run through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry opened his own holes and lanes to run through.Barry would go in the great player on average teams. Its a shame he retired without trying to go to a contending team. I would have loved to see him on a really good team. Spoilers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Boy Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I'll stop short of adding Jim Plunkett and Doug Williams. Plunkett because no one really stood out on the 1980 Raiders (they just worked great as a team unit)Plunkett won two Super Bowls and was a Heisman Trophy winner. I am not saying he should be in the HOF, but he is certainly not some chump who happened to get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Barry would go in the great player on average teams. Its a shame he retired without trying to go to a contending team. I would have loved to see him on a really good team.Yet, players like Emmitt Smith choose to go to the Cardinals.he was also at the end of his career and his best days were long behind him. I think the cards was the only team to show interest in him. When he did go to the cards its not like he did a whole hell of a lot anyway.I'll stop short of adding Jim Plunkett and Doug Williams.

I am not saying he should be in the HOF, but he is certainly not some chump who happened to get lucky.Plunkett wasn't a flash and spectacular player thats going to crush all the records, but he did get the job done twice. At the end of the day, thats what matters is if they can lead a team to super bowl and win it. Some times the best players aren't flash and glammer, some are the lunch pale types that get the job done. Spoilers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfen29 Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Robert Horry was my instant thought in this topic. He's been a pretty good Pro, but talk about finding yourself in the right place at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
