2007 Hall of Fame Class
This years NFL hall of fame class is as followed
Michael Irving Thurman Thomas Bruce Matthews Roger Wehrli Charlie Sanders Gene Hickerson This looks like its a pretty good hall of fame class but I feel there were 3 major snubs this year. 1. Paul Tagliabue Former Commish wasn't elected in his first year of eleigbility. Now I know he'll make it in the future but I definitly think he deserved to make it his first year. He was able to get huge television deals for the NFL. The only thing against him was he never was able to bring a team back to L.A. 2. Derrick Thomas He is one of 22 players to record 100 sacks or more in his career, and ranks 5th all time on the Chiefs record book for tackles. He also was voted rookie of the year and made nine pro bowls. And all of this was just 10 seasons in to his career which was cut down by that devastating car crash which caused him to lose his life. Had he played for a few years after that I'm sure he'd be remembered as one of the greatest LBs of all time. I'm sure he'll make the Hall of Fame in the future but he definitly deserves to go soon. 3. Art Monk He seems to get snubbed every year. He played in 3 super bowls with the Redskins and won one of them. He was also one of the most humble players to ever play the game. I also hope he makes it to the Hall of Fame but after getting passed on many times I think his time is running out. If anyone else has any snubs they'd like to make there case for the Hall of Fame let's hear them. |
