Not in Hall of Fame News

This should be a major coup for the Black College Football Hall of Fame. It was announced today that the Black College Hall of Fame will land in Canton, Ohio in 2019 as part of the latter’s vast renovation.  Spearheaded by Doug Williams and James Harris, two Grambling alumni, the Black College Football Hall of Fame was founded by 2009, and will soon be a Hall within a Hall.  It had been speculated that the original locale would have been Atlanta, Georgia, a perfect spot as this has been where they have held all of their inauguration galas, but with…

We are thrilled here at Notinhalloffame.com to unveil our latest major update to the site. Last month, the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame announced its latest class prompting us to revise our list for the upcoming year.  Recapping, four men from our Basketball list advanced to Springfield and that included our top three (Shaquille O’Neal, Allen Iverson & Yao Ming) and Zelmo Beatty, who was ranked at #20 on our list from last year.  With those four out and with new entries eligible, the state of the list has changed.  Along with all of your votes and comments, here is…

Let’s do this one more time shall we? It wasn’t that long ago when we created the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame and after two and a half years we have inducted seven athletes, three contributors and one veteran.  In that last paragraph, the emphasis needs to be placed on the word “we”, as with the exception of inaugural inductee, Rocky Balboa, the voting has been all up to the general public, and for all of the support that we have received we would like to thank you all! However as always it is onward and upward for us, and…

We warned you all that he his column was coming soon! In one of our past “Coming Soon” updates we told you about a regular visitor who calls himself “Dr. Johnny Pervert” (unless that is in fact his real name) had offered to add a list of whom he decreed as the hottest women in sports.  Mildly intrigued, we here at Notinhalloffame.com took him up on the offer providing that he could do what we normally do: Provide a list longer than most of what you would find on the Internet and promise to update accordingly.  While we don’t yet…
