		Clay Matthews is back in a familiar position as the Pro Football Hall Fame gets closer in its process to naming the class of 2021.
	</p>
</div>

<div style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#555555">
	<p>
		For the third straight year and fifth time since 2012, the former Browns linebacker is among the 25 modern-era semifinalists. The initial list of finalists went 130 deep.
	</p>
</div>

<div style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#555555">
	<p>
		The group of 25 will eventually be whittled down to 15 before the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection committee chooses anywhere from four to eight to be officially enshrined in August 2021.

	<strong>See above.....it is both a personal feeling.....AND it is a fact that I felt Winfield was better at his specific job. </strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong>I guess another thing is that he is another of those kunthole traitors that is from Ohio but went to Michifuck.  He may as well have fought for Al-Qaeda as far as I am concerned.   And have you seen him try to become a football commentator?  He is horrible.  Fired by ESPN.  He really sucks. </strong>

			Charles Woodson IMO has a much better chance to get in the HOF than Clay Matthews. His resume is pretty damn impressive...<br /><br />
			4x First Team All-Pro<br />
			4x Second Team All-Pro<br />
			9x Pro Bowl<br />
			NFL Defensive Player of the Year (2009)<br />
			NFL Rookie of the Year (1998)<br />
			NFL 2000s All-Decade Team<br />
			5th all-time w/ 65 interceptions<br />
			Tied 1st all-time w/ 13 defensive touchdowns <br />

	<strong>Maybe he is deserving....but I just don't like the cocksucker.  Fuck him and his HOF chances. </strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Here is the thing:   Both he and Antonio Winfield played at about the same time....and seeing them both play....I would take Winfield any day as a DB.   Maybe Woodson was better at special teams, but if I wanted a player to cover a top receiver, it would have been Winfield..NOT Woodson. </strong>
