    This is what happens after you watch Brian's Song. :lol:

    Sayers was an unbelievable back and it really sucks that his career was sidetracked by injury.

    Winners from last week?.....I think maybe there needs to be a thread for nominations and a thread to post hall of famers seperately

    If it would be possible to sticky a thread just for the inductees, I can list all the previous entrants from the long lost thread and make a new one, with last weeks entrants. If I make the new updated Hall of Fame thread, would it be possible to get it stickied and kept seperate from the nominations thread?

    Hmmmmmmm....still no respect for Jim Marshall of the Minnesota Vikings....can't get into the hall and can't get in here either....so....I nominate Jim Marshall again.

    Marshall needs to make it in...

    Read below:
    He was a great Defensive Lineman for the Vikings, played 270 Strait Games and was a part of 4 teams that made it to the Super Bowl. He was a dominant player for most of his career.

    I agree with Doug, Marshall needs to make it to the HOF. I can't find any stats but I'll bet they were great for his time of playing.
