what a load of crap

[oklahomabroncofan]

we have the 2nd most wins of ant team since 1979, have been to 5 superbowls and yet we only have 1 person in the hof. There is no east and west coast biase riiiiiiight

[Bronco LB 59]

The good news is Gary Zimmerman still has a shot.

[dbfan4life]

Damn shame. I had a chance to meet the guy back in Oct. Nicest guy you'll meet. No idea why this guy is left off the ballot year after year.

[B-Love]

Zimmerman might not even make me want to go to Canton.

Zimmerman was a great player but he's only a half Bronco.

I have given up any effort at this point and I believe the Committee for Gradishar has as well.

If there is any dwindling hope, you must root for Harry "The Whiny b****" Carson to get in this year. As long as Harry is on the outside, there is no way Randy will ever get in.

If Carson gets in this year, there may be one last push for Randy next year.

**** you, you fat ****ing slob sportswriters, and you skinny weasel pencil pushers.

[BritBronco Maniac]

It is one of the biggest crimes in sports that Gradishar is not in the HOF.
Played 10 years, made the Probowl 7 times, Defensive player of the year once, and AVERAGED 200 TACKLES A YEAR!!

I know its very disapointing, but you shouldn't give up hope.

Carl Eller finally got inducted two years ago and his career started 10 years before Gradishar. Bob Brown was also inducted in that class and his career ended by the time Gradishar started his NFL career in 1974.

In 2000, the HOF inducted former linebacking great Dave Wilcox 26 years after he retired. Another 49er linebacking legend, Bob St. Clair, was inducted 27 years after his retirement.


The Pro Football HOF is making Gradishar suffer, but I think he's going to eventually get in. Don't give up the fight. I am willing to do anything to help Gradishar's cause. Let me know.

[24champ]

This sucks, I know alot of guys on here really put an effort to get this guy in the HOF. Dont give up guys!

[Spider]

I wont throw up Gradishars stats, but needless to say Ray Lewis , Carson , and some respect LT would have to climb a step ladder to kiss Randys áss , but from memory , Randy spent more time in the other teams backfield ,Might as well put him in the opposing teams uni and line him up as a FB..... If Gradishar had played for an east coast team back in the day , No doubt he would be the measure of a line backer ...... Hell Randy out did Butkus in so many ways it isnt even close ........

[Bronco_Beerslug]

It's a travesty that Randy isn't in! I've watched NFL football for many moons and he was absolutely the best ML on short yardage situations that I've ever seen play the game.

[Bronx33]

They amaze me every year with their homerism.

Bastages! Why, oh lord!
I think they are disrespecting the Broncos and Gradishar again!

[-Slap-]

I just got punched in the gut with Andre Dawson's fifth straight snubbing for the BB HOF. I thought he had a chance in this so-called down year, but he got screwed again.

Watch that ****ing fraud McGwire waltz in first ballot next year.

I didn't hold out any hope because I knew these idiot writers consider relief pitchers more of an athlete than players like Dawson and Rice.

This was his best shot for awhile with the new guys coming up in the next few years.

It has nothing to do with East Coast West Coast crap.. It's all about the big name teams. Green Bay, Dallas, Steelers. Andre Tippett not being in the HOF is crap also, he has a 100 sacks 5 consecutive Pro Bowls and 18.5 sacks in a single season.

[Garcia Bronco]

HTF is Harry Carson on there?

Randy Gradishar averaged over 200 tackles a season 14 game seasons ,7 time pro bowler , they didnt keep track of QB sacks back in those days , but Randy had more then his fair share ...............Many still concider Randy Gradishar the best linebacker Ohio had .........Randy is in the College hall of fame .......Trippett would have to climb a step ladder to kiss RANDYS ASS

[watermock]

It's dissapointing, but Randy will always have his fans in Denver. You don't have any more class than Randy G.

I have met Meck. A nicer man you couldn't meet. Total gentleman. Sorry, but Foley came off like a prick. Maybe he was on the rag. You can't judge on one meeting, but they came off to me totally different. If Foley didn't want to be signing autographs at Burt, he didn''t have to take the Landcruiser.

[Crushaholic]

I will ignore the HOF proceedings COMPLETELY if Madden gets in this year...

[Alkazar]

I saw a list put up on the NFL channel this morning and the only "Bronco" listed there was Neil Smith, a Chief and Bronco.......Although I liked Smith, especially when he became a Bronco, there are many other Broncos more deserving who are still on the outside waiting to be ushered in.

I heard on the radio last night that 12 of the MLB HOF voters sent their ballots in blank, they didn't bother to vote for anyone. Every single one of them should never have a vote for the HOF ever again and should have their names published so that we know who the a-holes are.

Good job missing the point.. My post was in response to it being a west coast vs. east coast thing.
