The Toy Hall of Fame has announced the latest class, and as always nostalgia reigns supreme when you think of the latest entrants.

Twister, the puppet and the super soaker comprise the Class of 2015 beating out other finalists such as the spinning top, Wiffle Ball, Playmobil, American Girl Dolls, Jenga, Battleship, the scooter, the coloring book and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. 

Historians and curators from the Strong Museum in Rochester, New York, which houses the Toy Hall of Fame, choose all of the finalists.  This class brings the total of inductees to 56.

While we aren’t looking to do a Notinhalloffame.com list for the Toy Hall of Fame, it is one that we have enjoyed covering and always look forward to see which childhood memory will be conjured up when they put out a press release.

  

Like I said in part one, this isn’t meant to be scientific.

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.
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 news to us that last weekend the Dallas Cowboys added Darren Woodson to their prestigious Ring of Honor at halftime of their home game against Seattle.

Woodson was drafted out of Arizona State in the second round in 1992 and would spend thirteen seasons in the National Football League, all of which were with the Cowboys.  Converted to Safety from Linebacker, Woodson would have an outstanding career in professional football making five consecutive Pro Bowls from 1994 to 98 and would make three First Team All Pro squads during that timeframe. 

More importantly to Woodson (and to the Cowboys fans), he was a big part of helping the team win three Super Bowls in the 1990’s, though it was the potent offense and triumvirate of Aikman, Smith and Irvin that got most of the attention.  Woodson was also set the record for tackles by a Dallas Cowboy.

While this is an elite accolade for the Defensive End, Woodson was asked what he felt about the most prestigious post career honor, the Hall of Fame:

“I think about it all the time when I see guys going in.  When I look at my career and the guys I played with and played against, there ain’t a Hall of Famer I couldn’t have played with.

But if you are asking me, it’s like me coming in my first year asking me if I should be starting? I say, ‘Hell, yeah!’ It’s like asking if I belong in the Ring of Honor? ‘Hell, yeah!’ So should I be in the Hall of Fame? ‘Hell, yeah!’ But that decision is not up to me. That’s every football player’s ultimate goal. It would be icing on the cake.”

Last year, Woodson was a Semi-Finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, however he has yet to be a Finalist and is not (though he was close) to making our Notinhalloffame.com 100 for Hall consideration.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Darren Woodson for achieving this honor!

Our long and arduous work in progress of ranking the top fifty players for every North American sorts 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 news to us that last night the New Orleans Saints inducted two new members into their Hall of Fame.

Kick/Punt Return Specialist, Tyrone Hughes played for the Saints from 1993 to 1996 and in each season he led the National Football League in a return category.  Hughes was the Punt Return Yards leader in ’93 and in 1994 to 1996 he would be the league leader in Kick Return Yards.  In total, Hughes accumulated 6,777 Return Yards and was named to the Pro Bowl in 1993.

Joining Hughes is Michael Lewis who played for the franchise from 2001 to 2006.  Like Tyrone Hughes, Lewis was primarily a returner who in 2002 led the NFL in Punt Return Yards, Kick Return Yards and All-Purpose Yards and not surprisingly was named a First Team All Pro and Pro Bowl Selection that season.  Overall as a Saint, would tally 7,955 All-Purpose Yards.

The addition of Hughes and Lewis to the Saints Hall of Fame is also noteworthy as both are natives of the Crescent City.

We here at Notinhallofame.com would like to congratulate the newest class to the New Orleans Saints Hall of Fame.
