Oakland Raiders Defensive End, Justin Tuck has announced his retirement from the National Football League after an eleven year career.

Tuck was drafted in the third round by the New York Giants out of Notre Dame in 2005 and was a large part of the Giants Super Bowl wins in XLII and XLVI.  Tuck was a Pro Bowl selection in 2008 and 2010 and holds the distinction of being the only player to record multiple Quarterback Sacks in multiple Super Bowls. 

Tuck would sign with the Oakland Raiders in 2014, but would be forced to sit out 2015 due to injury.  He retires with 66.5 Quarterback Sacks, 510 Tackles and 22 Forced Fumbles.

While he is not likely to earn a place in Canton, he has solidified a strong place in the history of the New York Giants.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to wish Justin Tuck the best in the next stage of his life and thank him for the memories on the field!



We here at Notinhalloffame.com thought it would be fun to take a look at the major awards in North American team sports and see how it translates into Hall of Fame potential.

Needless to say, different awards in different sports yield hall of fame potential.  In basketball, the team sport with the least amount of players on a roster, the dividend for greatness much higher.  In baseball, it is not as much as a great individual season does not have the same impact.
The Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame has announced the six new members of their institution, which will be led by former Toronto Blue Jay, Pat Hentgen and former Montreal Expo, Dennis Martinez. 

Canadian scout, Wayne Norton, broadcaster, Tony Kubek, longtime Blue Jays executive, Howard Starkman and baseball pioneer, William Shuttleworth rounds out the latest class.

Pat Hentgen was a member of the back-to-back Toronto Blue Jays World Series Champions.  Hentgen was a three time All Star and was the first Blue Jay to win the Cy Young Award.  Hentgen went 107 and 85 with 1,028 Strikeouts as a Blue Jay and he currently works with Toronto as a special assistant.

Dennis Martinez played for the Montreal Expos from 1986 to 1993.  “El Presidente” went to three All Star Games as an Expo, won the 1991 ERA Title and finished his Expos tenure with a record of 100 and 72 with 973 Strikeouts.

Wayne Norton was a key figure in developing Baseball Canada by putting together the country’s first National Junior Team.  He also served as a scout for the Montreal Expos, Baltimore Orioles and the Seattle Mariners.

Howard Starkman served as the Blue Jays public relations director from 1976 to 1998 and would later become the VP of media relations and than the VP of special projects.  Starkman is a native of Toronto.

Tony Kubek spent thirteen years in the Majors as a Shortstop and was a three time World Series winner with the New York Yankees.  Kubek would be a broadcaster for the Blue Jays for thirteen seasons and in 2009 would win the prestigious Ford C. Frick Award from the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

In the late 1800’s William Shuttleworth helped to organize Canada’s first formal baseball team and would serve as the vice president of the first Canadian baseball organization.

The Ceremony will take place at the home of the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in St. Marys, Ontario on June 18.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate the latest class. 

Unless he changes his mind, we have a major retirement on our hands.

It was reported today that multiple sources have told ESPN that Calvin Johnson had informed the Detroit Lions and a close circle of family and friends that he will be retiring from the National Football League. 

Should this in fact be the case, the Wide Receiver known as “Megatron” has put up a stellar NFL career that includes the following:


3 First Team All Pro Selections

5 Pro Bowls

1 Receptions Title

2 Receiving Yards Title

731 Receptions

11,619 Receiving Yards

83 Receiving Touchdowns

15.9 Yards/Reception 


Calvin Johnson may not have the career numbers of some of the current former Wide Receivers who are chasing Canton, but he does have elite seasons, and was a game changer.  This makes him in our eyes a bona fide Hall of Fame contender, which he will become eligible for in 2021.

Should this be the end of Calvin Johnson’s career, we here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to thank “Megatron” for the memories and wish him the best in his post-playing career.
