Ken Stabler and Dick Stanfel named 2016 Senior Nominees for the PFHOF
Aug 20, 2015
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
Only a couple of weeks ago, the Football Hall of Fame officially inducted last year’s Senior Nominee, Mick Tingelhoff. This year, the Hall returns to two Senior Nominees, and while we are upset that former Green Bay Packer, Jerry Kramer is not one of them, we can’t say that we have a lot of issues with the two they did select.
Former Oakland Raiders Quarterback, Ken Stabler, who died earlier this year has been named as a Senior Finalist. “The Snake” had been a popular choice for many in terms of long time omissions for the Hall, and was himself a Finalist three times (1990, 1991 & 1993). Stabler is ranked at #6 on the Notinhalloffame.com Football countdown for 2016.
The other Senior Nominee is Dick Stanfel, who also died this year. The Offensive Lineman split his playing career in the 1950’s with the Detroit Lions and Washington Redskins and was named a First Team All Pro five times. Stanfel would go on to have a successful offensive line coaching career, most notably earning a Super Bowl Ring with the Chicago Bears in 1986. He is ranked at #30 on the Notinhalloffame.com Football countdown for 2016.
It should be noted that roughly two thirds of Senior Nominees make the Pro Football Hall of Fame and that the Senior Nominees automatically are Finalists for this year’s Hall of Fame.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com only wish that both Stanfel and Stabler were still alive to enjoy this day.

Daniel Briere Retires

Not in Hall of Fame News
It has been speculated for some time that Daniel Briere would be retiring this off season. That has apparently come to fruition as the 37 year old forward has announced that he is officially retiring from the game from hockey.
An undersized Centre, Briere would break in to league with the Phoenix Coyotes, but it was his season with the Buffalo Sabres in the 2006-07 season where he really turned heads, finishing with 95 Points and securing his first All Star Game appearance. Statistically, that would be his best season, but it would be with his next team, the Philadelphia Flyers, that he would have greater success.
Briere would lead everyone in scoring in the 2010 Playoffs in Philadelphia’s failed Stanley Cup run and two years later would lead the league in Playoff Goals. His overall playoff production saw him net 116 Points in 124 Games.
Daniel Briere retires with 696 Points and two All Star Game appearances. This is not likely to be a good enough career for the Hockey Hall of Fame, but probably for the back end of our list once eligible.
We have moved Briere to the 2018 Hockey Futures accordingly.

Edgar Martinez endorses David Ortiz for the Baseball Hall
Aug 18, 2015

Not in Hall of Fame News
We have watched year after year the plight of Edgar Martinez, the former Seattle Mariners Designated Hitter who has not gotten enough support for the Baseball Hall of Fame.
When asked about by the Boston Herald fellow DH, and Boston Red Sox superstar, David Ortiz, Martinez is emphatic about what he thinks of Ortiz in the Hall:
“No doubt. Ortiz definitely is a Hall of Famer.”
Martinez may have had an emphatic opinion on it, but will that matter? Many as the greatest DH of all time regard him, but that same designation is what many believe has kept him out. To date, he has only received as high as 36.5 percent of the vote (which was in his first year on the ballot), and with the reduction to ten years of eligibility from fifteen, the window is closing sooner.
Martinez finished his career with 2,247 Hits, 309 Home Runs, a .312/.418/.515 Slash Line and a bWAR of 68.3. At present, Ortiz is at 2,263 Hits, 491 Home Runs, .284/.378/.545 and a bWAR of 48.9, though even at the advanced age of 39, he still has some time left to pad those stats; though it can’t be ignored that he has three World Series rings, including an ALCS MVP and a World Series MVP.
This is not to say that is impossible for Ortiz or even Martinez for that matter to get in. Paul Molitor, who played close to 45 percent of his games at Designated Hitter got in and Frank Thomas played 56.4 percent at DH. Martinez was the DH 68.2 percent of his games and Ortiz is at 83.4, a number that is likely to climb.
As always, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are very curious to see how perception changes with the Baseball Hall of Fame.
