[QUOTE=WillMacKenzie;719674]Part of the qualifications are the values of the game. [/QUOTE/]
The shame is that we don't even have any idea what this means anymore. At least in the past we had illusions about our heroes. They may not have been perfect but we could honor their athletic accomplishments. There is more transparency in cases like Rice, OJ, Sharper and the like. That is a good thing. But, the micro-aggression mindset and the social justice propping up of things like the Kaepernick deal don't equate and makes me sad. I guess when a deserter, Bradley Manning, gets a Rose Garden homecoming? We shouldn't be surprised that our sports leagues don't resemble traditional United States Of America values or give us much to honor these days. Thank for the post Will. |
I'm no one.

Re: Sharper nominated for HOF
If it is on field then yes. He should be considered. I know it sounds awful but if that is the rule then that is the rule.

Re: Sharper nominated for HOF
Can't imagine him getting any votes.
