RIP: Bobby Cox

Baseball lost a great one today. Hall of Fame Manager Bobby Cox passed away today.  He was 84 years old. A Third Baseman who made it to the Majors for two seasons with the New York Yankees (1968-69), Cox became a Manager in 1971 for New York’s Class A team in Ft Lauderdale.  He rose through the coaching ranks and rejoined the Yankees as a First Base Coach for the Bronx Bombers, winning a World Series ring in 1977, but his stay in the Big Apple came to an end when Atlanta Braves owner Ted Turner signed him to become…

1995 PRELIMINARY RESULTS: Thank you to all who participated in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project. If you are still determining what that is, we treated the PFHOF as having its first class in January 1946. We have completed the first 49 years. For “1995,” a Preliminary Vote with over 100 players whose playing career ended by 1989. We also follow the structure in which players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool. Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the…
1994 Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project Class. Here we are!  Again!! If you have been following our Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project, you know we have asked the question: What if the PFHOF had begun in January 1946? After soliciting and obtaining a passionate group of football fans and historians, we sent out a ballot for a Preliminary Vote, in which each voter selected 25 names as their semi-finalists and five names for the Senior Pool. We then asked the group to vote for their 15 Finalists in the Modern Era and 3 in the Senior…
Regular visitors of Notinhalloffame.com know that we are slowly working on the top 50 of every major team in the NHL, NBA, NFL, and MLB.  Once that is done, we will examine how each team honors its past players, coaches, and executives.  As such, it is important to us that the New England Patriots will be inducting Rob Gronkowski into their Hall of Fame. Gronkowski was chosen via an online vote that pitted him against Adam Vinatieri and Logan Mankins.  A four-time First Team All-Pro and five-time Pro Bowl selection with the Patriots, Gronkowski played there from 2010 to 2018,…

The event will take place on August 8 during Chicago’s home game against the Cleveland Guardians. Guillen played shortstop for the Chi-Sox from 1985 to 1997, where he won the 1985 Rookie of the Year…
