Good point JB ... I never understood how Sanders could get elected but not Odoms or Jerry Smith?

I hope Witten is first ballot but Gronk probably will be. Of the nine tight ends in the Hall, I felt only Casper, Ditka and Mackey blocked better than Witten, though others felt Sanders and Smith blocked well also ... I havent seen enough of them to evaluate.

The Hay is nearly in the barn ... we will see. At least we dont have to debate Williams again till next year. I get where his case is coming from, but he just has others ahead of him that deserve their chance and to bypass someone like Lloyd Wells, didnt seem right to me. As long as Modell and Rooney Jr dont get in, I am fine.

Clearly, we need a "like" button here.

Nice work, Brian.

Thanks Ron. I still wonder if the BRP is endorsing someone who probably wont get elected to enable-enhance the chances of three seniors getting elected? Maybe not, each panel could be different but you would think Kraft might have a better chance than Hay, who these younger voters dont know of?

If the pattern holds true for the coaching endorsement, say Shaughnessy, Arnsparger etc--though I would endorse them--maybe it could prove my point for the seniors' chances?

Kraft would definitely have a better chance for sure with these voters because they are more familiar with Kraft than hay
