[Mark O]

Tomlinson

Dawkins

Coryell

T. Davis

John Lynch

[Canton Mike]

IMHO, a kicker making the final 15 ahead of Clay Matthews Jr is a travesty & an indictment of the process. Were the selection committee HOF Players & Coaches, he would probably already be in & Jerry Sherk would be in or knocking at the door. I get mad every year about this...SCREW the media!

Yep....and from San Diego. I had a bit of a SD influence on my list.

I can't believe Clay Matthews didn't make the cut again. Stupid as hell.

Anyway, yeah Morten Anderson deserves to be in, along with the others I highlighted. TO was a heck of a player, but he was also a me-me guy and disruptive to team chemistry, so I say no to him.

LT....no brainer. TO has paid his price. He was a money receiver for many years. John Lynch, nobody at the position was any better, ever. Morten Andersen. Kickers don't get much love, but that guy was as good as they get, for a long time. Let's go Joe Jacoby. The Hogs are legend. Time for one to get the nod.

I think the Senior and Contributor are seperate. Easley, yes, Tags and Jerry, no.

Russ Grimm from the Hogs is already in.

Sorry, but another travesty is the fact that Dick Shafrath is not in.

I think the Senior and Contributor are seperate. Easley, yes, Tags and Jerry, no.

Yea, why in the fuck is Jerry Jones even being considered. The only thing that I can tell that he has brought to the NFL is a greedy attitude.

I've said many, many times if Clay had played for the Steelers, he would have been in long ago.

I don't know....the Steelers were basically mediocre during most of the tenure of Clay's career...80s to mid 90s.

Sorry Gip. Clay- 1978-1996. Steelers 2 SB wins and only 4 losing seasons in that time frame.

[Browns149]

LT

Kurt Warner

John Lynch

Morton Anderson

I can only vote for 4

The rest are not worthy. Maybe TO but that's about it

[nickers]

And Clay Mathews continues to get shit on....shakes My head!

I said "MOST" of that time, they were mediocre. They won when Clay was in his first and second years. And while they may have not had losing seasons, they lingered around .500.

Tomlinson, Davis, Taylor, Anderson and Warner made it.

As well as Easley and Jones.

Terrell Davis has been a cause of mine ... Glad to see it happen.
