Committee Chairman

Committee Chairman

Kirk Buchner, "The Committee Chairman", is the owner and operator of the site.  Kirk can be contacted at [email protected] .
Our long and arduous work in progress of ranking the top fifty players for every North American sports team is underway, but after that is completed we will then take a look how each franchise honors their own in terms of respective franchise halls of fame, ring of honors, retired numbers and statues.

As such it is noteworthy to us that the Philadelphia Flyers officially inducted former forward, Rod Brind’Amour to their franchise’s Hall of Fame.

Brind’Amour played nine seasons and suited up for 633 Games in Philadelphia, scoring 601 Points, which is in the top ten in franchise history.  He would also score another 51 Points for Philadelphia in the playoffs and was a big part of the Flyers 1997 Stanley Cup appearance.  He also holds the team record for the most consecutive games played with 484 and would represent the team at the All Star Game in 1992.

While he put up good numbers in Philadelphia, a trade to Carolina would see Brind’Amour win the Stanley Cup and the Frank J. Selke Trophy twice as the NHL’s top defensive forward. 

Brind’Amour is ranked #52 on our current Notinhalloffame Hockey Hall of Fame countdown. 

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Rod Brind’Amour and the Philadelphia Flyers at this time. 

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.
Our long and arduous work in progress of ranking the top fifty players for every North American sports team is underway, but after that is completed we will then take a look how each franchise honors their own in terms of respective franchise halls of fame, ring of honors, retired numbers and statues.

As such it is noteworthy to us that over the weekend the San Diego Chargers officially retired the number of former Running Back, LaDainian Tomlinson and entered him in their franchises’ Hall of Fame.

Tomlinson played for San Diego from 2001 to 2009 and made five Pro Bowls and three First Team All Pros.  Three times he would lead the NFL in Rushing Touchdowns and in 2006 was named the League MVP. 

The former Running Back becomes the fourth player to have his number retired, joining Dan Fouts, Lance Alworth and Junior Seau. 

Tomlinson will be eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2017 and is considered by many to enter Canton.

We would like to congratulate LaDainian Tomlinson on this latest accolade and there is reason to think there are more coming.
