Buffalo716 Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 The NFL HoF is thinking about enshrining 20 members in it's 2020 class which is the centennial year of the NFL The HoF is a very selective group so I am sure that this will be debated because 20 is a large number But this COULD FINALLY be the time that Takser gets in if it is approved What say you? http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001034967/article/david-baker-hof-to-consider-20-enshrinees-for-2020 1 2
Captain Murica Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Once a punter got voted in I thought it would be only a matter of time before Steve got in, and Of course I’m bias, in wanting another member of the early 90s Bills in there. But, they literally implemented a rule because how he would run through the sidelines to avoid being blocked. 3
Doc Brown Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Horrible idea. Takes away from the prestige. The HOF should not be handing out participation trophies. 8 1 1 2
KD in CA Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Heck, why not 100 inductees for the centennial? If you're going to rely on cheap gimmicks, go all out! 3

Walking Tall Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 I think it would be cool if the NFL opened up a Hall of Shame. Embarrassing, awful moments, games and careers of players, coaches, GM’s and Owners. I’d watch. Hell, I’d attend.

Koko78 Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 They'll never agree to clear the artificially created logjams by inducting so many at once. Logjams create controversy as to who gets in over other deserving players, which gives the writers something to sell stories when they write about it.

Just Jack Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 The ceremony is long enough, imagine how long it would take with 20 inductions. They'd have to spread it over two or more days.
Just Joshin' Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 I am split.....If it helps Hull/Tasker then it will feel better. In reality this is too large a % increase vs the current inducted players.

Like he should have except for some antiquated rule about limiting the number of enshrinees each year.
