Thought that this was an interesting concept that was poorly executed (a 54 page slideshow). I can't link it directly, but, you know where to find it.

What is your #1 HOF Class? 1971 looks awfully good to me. (Jim Brown, Bill Hewitt, "Bruiser Kinard, Vince Lombardi, Andy Robustelli, Y.A. Tittle, Norm Van Brocklin) Top notch coach, best RB ever, 2 great QB's, Robustelli...

Not bad, but you will have a tough time beating the inaugural class. Others I would toss into the discussion would be the '80 or '05 class.

Given your penchant for the historical stuff I would've thought '88 - as small as it was - would've been a class you liked. (Ditka, Ham, Biletnikoff & Halas)
