The Toy Hall of Fame announces their 2016 Class
Nov 11, 2016
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
The Toy Hall of Fame has announced their newest class, and as always it certainly brings back our inner child every time we discuss it here.
This year, the Strong Museum in Rochester, New York, which houses the Toy Hall of Fame selected three toys to add to the fifty-nine others that are already in.
The three new inductees are:
The Swing: Which has its beginnings from ancient time and became a household staple for suburban backyards.
Fischer Price’s “Little People”: A toy that first hit the market in 1959.
Dungeons & Dragons: A table top game that came into being in 1974 became a cultural phenomenon and geek’s paradise for years.
Congratulations to these toys and let’s see which one of our childhood memories get in next year!

RIP: Leonard Cohen
Nov 10, 2016

It is another sad day in the music industry.
On his official Facebook Page, it was announced that revered folk-poet singer, Leonard Cohen died at the age of 82. The cause of death has not been disclosed.
While there was a plethora of singer songwriters who emerged in the 1960’s, there was none that could batch his haunting and deep voice and the wide scope of topics that his songs broached. Amazingly, it almost never happened.
Cohen, who was born in Quebec, was a published poet but hardly a successful one. A meeting with Judy Collins led to her using two of his songs on her album, “In My Life”, and he would become one of the more sought after songwriters, and later performers.
Unlike so many, Cohen would have a successful career for decades, enjoying a renaissance of sorts, especially with the constant reworking of what is now his most famous song, “Hallelujah”. He would be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008, and would later receive The Order of Canada, considered the highest honor that be given from that nation.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com offer our condolences to the friends, family and fans of Leonard Cohen.

James Hetfield wants Motorhead in the RRHOF
Nov 10, 2016

Not in Hall of Fame News
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame have never been one to embrace the heavy metal genre as there are many great acts (Iron Maiden, Judas Priest) that have not been inducted. James Hetfield of Metallica, a band that is the Rock Hall, has gone on record that he wants to see Motörhead inducted.
In an interview with Gary Moore at KLOS in Los Angeles, Hetfield had this to say about Motörhead:
“With the passing of Lemmy, it's really, really important for me to see Motörhead acknowledged in that. Cause there's no more rock and roll person on this planet than Lemmy and Motörhead."
I loved being murdered every night by that thing, man. He was just such an icon, such an inspiration to us as a band. There's certainly no way we'd be around if there was no Motörhead.”
Motorhead were not named Finalists this year and neither were any metal bands. They have been eligible for the Hall since 2002.

It’s that time of the season where we can put some serious thought into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The Ford C. Frick Award is resented annually to the announcer who exemplifies excellence in broadcasting. There are eight men who have been named Finalists for this prestigious honor, the recipient of which will be automatically entered into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The Finalists are:
Gary Cohen, who joined the New York Mets broadcast team in 1989 and has been doing the broadcast ever since. He has also done work for ESPN Radio in the playoffs.
Jacques Doucet, who did the play-by-play in French for the Montreal Expos from 1972 until the team’s relocation (to Washington) in 2004. He has since taken over the French language broadcasts for the Toronto Blue Jays.
Ken “Hawk” Harrelson, a former one time All Star who has been the main television announcer for the Chicago White Sox since 1990. Harrelson began broadcasting in 1975 and had stints covering the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees before settling in Chicago.
Pat Hughes, who has been the radio play-by-play announcer for the Chicago Cubs since 1996, where he was famously paired with former Cubs great, Ron Santo for twelve years. Hughes did the radio broadcasts for the Milwaukee Brewers for twelve years prior to his Cubs gig.
Bill King, who for twenty five (1981 to 2005) years was the voice of Oakland Athletics. He would also call games for the Oakland Raiders and the Golden State Warriors.
Mike Krukow, who was a long time Starting Pitcher who was a one time All Star. Krukow has been broadcasting San Francisco Giants games since 1990.
Ned Martin, who broadcasted Boston Red Sox games on both radio and television from 1961 to 1992.
Dewayne Staats, who has been broadcasting the Tampa Bay Rays games since their inception in 1998.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate this group of Finalists and we eagerly await to see which one will be chosen for Cooperstown!
