The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football Hockey and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next ten of the 2024 Hockey List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 31 to 40:

31. Pekka Rinne
32. Steve Larmer
33. Rod Brind’Amour
34. Butch Goring
35. Chris Osgoode
36. Randy Carlyle
37. Reggie Leach
38. Sergei Gonchar
39. Vladimir Konstantinov
40. Vincent LeCavalier

Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.

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 Corey Dillon and Tim Krumrie have been chosen for the Cincinnati Bengals Ring of Honor.

The Bengals were late to the dance in the creation of a Ring of Honor, but have made up for lost time with the past announcements of Ken Anderson, Paul Brown, Isaac Curtis, Boomer Esiason, Chad Johnson, Anthony Munoz and Ken Riley to their Ring.

Corey Dillon, Running Back, 1997-2003.  The dynamic Running Back rushed for 8,061 Yards and 45 Touchdowns for the Bengals, while adding 1,482 Yards and 5 TDs from the air.  Dillon was a three-time Pro Bowl Selection.  He still holds the three top single-game rushing games in franchise history

Tim Krumrie, Nose Tackle-Defensive Tackle, 1983-94.  Krumrie played his entire career with the Bengals where the Nose Tackle was a two-time Pro Bowl and one-time First Team All-Pro.  He had 1,017 Tackles and 34.5 Sacks in the Jungle.

Dillon and Krumrie will be officially inducted at Cincinnati’s home game against the Washington Commanders on September 23^rd.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate the impending members of the Cincinnati Bengals Ring of Honor.

As such, it is important that the Detroit Lions have announced that Calvin Johnson will be inducted into their Pride of the Lions.

Nicknamed “Megatron,” Johnson was the most dynamic wide receiver of his day, making impossible catches and making them look easy.

A Lion for the entirety of his career, Johnson was taken second overall in 2007 and would twice lead the NFL in Receiving Yards.   In only nine seasons, Johnson accumulated 11,619 Yards with 93 Touchdowns, with his last six campaigns yielding Pro Bowl Selection.  Johnson was also a three-time First Team All-Pro and was named to the 2010s All-Decade Team.

Johnson was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2021 in his first year of eligibility.
