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, so this results in a long push to revise what we already have; specifically, now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

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

The new 61 to 70:

61. Rod Smith
62. John Abraham
63. Larry Grantham
64. Mike Kenn
65. Greg Lloyd
66. Marshall Goldberg
67. Gary Clark
68. Rosey Grier
69. Henry Ellard
70. Darren Woodson

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.

1960 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 that we have asked the rhetorical question: What if the PFHOF began 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 we asked each voter to give us 25 names as their semi-finalists and 5 in the Senior Pool. Following that, we asked the group to vote for their 15 Finalists in the Modern Era and 3 in the Senior Category. The final stage was to vote for their five Modern Era inductee and one Senior inductee.

This is the result of the fifteenth official class;

Below are the final results of this project based on 30 votes,

Remember that the group took a vote in “1960”, and we have reverted back to the top five candidates entering the Hall PROVIDING THEY MAKE 50% of the vote.  This will be put to a vote again in “1963”.

This is for the “Modern Era”

*Bold indicates they have been elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Class of 1960:

This is for the “Senior Era”, *Bold indicates they have been elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Class of 1960, though no one made the mandatory 50% threshold to advance.

About the 1960 Inductees:

Ken Kavanaugh E, CHI 1940-41 & 1945-50: Inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project in 1960 on his 5^th Ballot.  Was never inducted into the actual Pro Football Hall of Fame. 

An SEC Player of the Year in 1939 with LSU, Ken Kavanaugh was chosen by the Chicago Bears the following year in the 3^rd Round of the NFL Draft.  The End would be a member of the dominant “Monsters of the Midway” where the won back-to-back NFL Championships (1940 & 1941), scoring a TD in the first one (which was the lopsided 73-0 dismantling of the Washington Redskins).

Like many of his peers, Kavanaugh enlisted to serve his country in World War II, and when he returned, the former LSU Tiger picked up right where he left off.  Kavanaugh would again help the Bears win the 1946 NFL Championship.  He would be named a First Team All-Pro in various publications three times and would twice lead the NFL in Touchdown Receptions before he retired after 1950.  He was named to the 1940's All-Decade Team.
