The NASCAR Hall of Fame has announced the new members of their latest Hall of Fame Class and the relatively new Hall is continues its expansion with class and prestige.

The class (in our eyes anyway) is headlined by Bobby Isaac, who we had ranked at #2 on our last list.  Isaac is a posthumous induction after passing away at the age of 45 from a heart attack.  He had 37 Sprint Cup Wins.

Terry Labonte, who for many is the headliner of this year’s class, will join Isaac.  Labonte was the Sprint Series Champion in both 1984 and 1996.  Notinhalloffame.com had Labonte ranked at #4.

Curtis Turner also joins the NASCAR Hall of Fame.  Turner was an early star who won 17 Sprint Cup races.

The Class is rounded out by multi-time modified champion, Jerry Cook and former Speedway Motor Sports Chairman, Bruton Smith who led the balloting.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate this year’s class and we will be working on a new list soon!







Does anyone want to play defence for the San Francisco 49ers this year?



Following the retirement of Patrick Willis, a possible Hall of Fame contender, five time Pro Bowl selection, Justin Smith also announced that he will not be returning to the Niners and has elected to retire citing his inability to compete at 100 percent.

The Defensive End entered the NFL with the Cincinnati Bengals where he played his first seven seasons but it was with San Francisco, the team he signed as a free agent in 2008 where his career would reach its greatest heights. 

Smith would make five consecutive Pro Bowls (2009-13) and was a First Team All Pro in 2011.  Smith was also named the San Francisco 49ers MVP in 2008 and 2011 and Sports Illustrated named him their Defensive Player of the Year.

Justin Smith retires with 87 Quarterback Sacks and started 211 and 214 Games.
With the 400th Home Run smacked of Adrian Beltre, there have been a few people speculating about his Hall of Fame chances.  Coincidentally, there are some that read that headline and say…Adrian Beltre?


Just you because they were your former teammate it does not mean that you automatically think that they should be in the Hall of Fame.

That is what we learned from former New York Yankee, Jorge Posada, who was an All Star Catcher and former teammate of Alex Rodriguez and Roger Clemens, the latter of which has been on the Hall of Fame ballot for a few years and is not expected to enter Cooperstown based on the support he has received thus far. 
Posada was not ambiguous when asked on CBS whether A-Rod or Clemens should be in the Hall as his answer was “No…I don’t think it’s fair”.  This was also a stance that will be echoed in his book, which he has been promoting nationally.

While, the former baseball player was clear on his opinion, there did not appear to be any overt hostility towards the men he shared a World Series Championship with.
