RIP: John "Hot Rod" Williams
Dec 11, 2015

Not in Hall of Fame News
Former NBA Power Forward, John “Hot Rod” Williams passed away today at the young age of 53 after losing a battle with prostate cancer.
Williams, while never an All Star, was a popular player with the Cleveland Cavaliers but had to endure trials (literally) and tribulations to get there.
While playing at Tulane, Williams was not exactly an honor student and was labeled as a troublemaker in some circles. Most notably, he would be charged with point shaving in three games. Williams went to trial twice, the first resulting in a mistrial, the second being found not guilty, but as he was going through the judicial system, he was not able to suit up for the Cleveland Cavaliers who had selected him 45th overall in the draft.
Williams would play for Cleveland for nine seasons beginning in the 1986/87 season and would average over 10 Points per Game every season. Overall, his Cavalier numbers were very good, as over 661 Games he averaged 31.5 Minutes, 12.9 Points, 7.1 Rebounds and 1.8 Blocks per Game with a PER of 16.4.
“Hot Rod” would play another four seasons in the NBA, with the Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks.
While he was perceived by some as a problem in college, his Cavaliers teammates praised him for personality and devotion to his team.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to extend our condolences to the friends and family of John Williams at this time.

Pittsburgh Penguins Left Winger, Pascal Dupuis announced yesterday that due to blood clots in his lung he would be forced to retire from the National Hockey League.
The 36 year old was in his sixteenth season in the NHL, the last half of which was a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins, a team in which he won a Stanley Cup with in 2009. Dupuis would also lead the NHL in Plus/Minus in the 2012/13 season,
Dupuis retires with 409 career Points over 871 Games and was considered by many of his teammates as one the game’s most tenacious players. He entered the NHL undrafted, and clawed his way to a successful career, which he hopes will continue in some capacity, though off of the ice of course with the Penguins.
While he is not going to be a Hall of Fame player, his career was a solid one and it will be honored this year by the Penguins who will be wearing a number 9 decal on their jersey for the season’s duration to honor the now retired player.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to thank Pascal Dupuis for his career and wish him the best in his post playing career.

Nile Rodgers talks about the Rock and Roll HOF
Dec 09, 2015

Not in Hall of Fame News
We have been waiting a long time to hear a comment from this man.
In a recent interview in Japan, Rodgers had this to say:
“I honestly, honestly don’t get weird about it. I can’t figure out what the criterion is. It’s actually sort of funny.
If it’s not based on statistics then it’s just an opinion poll deciding this person’s cooler than that person. But if a hall of fame is something that says this person had 20 gold records or influenced this amount of people, I’ve sold more records than almost anyone in there. I’ve written more hit records than almost everybody in the Hall of Fame. Come on, guys!
Most people don’t know I wrote We are Family, or I’m Coming Out – they don’t know that. They just go oh, it’s Sister Sledge, or oh it’s Diana Ross.
When David Bowie walked into my bedroom and played his version of Let’s Dance, it didn’t sound anything like the one everybody knows and loves. It was sort of like a folk song. Most of the things I have done, nobody knows that I did them.”
It is interesting that Rodgers did not speak so much of the band’s accomplishments but rather that of his own. As many of you know, Chic has been nominated for a tenth time, but is their any real reason to think that this will be their breakthrough year?
Rodgers did do everything he said, and most recently collaborated with Daft Punk in “Get Lucky”, an international smash.
Rodgers has been a successful performer, songwriter and producer and would be a candidate for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Award for Musical Excellence (which was won last year by Ringo Starr) which could go to Rodgers, or a performer like Todd Rundgren and/or Brian Eno, who fits into the same category as Rodgers.
At least if they did that, we would probably be spared the annual refusal of the Hall to induct Chic, which lets be honest, is mostly nominated because of Nile Rodgers.
