Very quietly, former two time All Star, Carlos Quentin announced that he was retiring from professional baseball.  The 32 year old was playing in the minor leagues with the Seattle Mariners organization.

Quentin would break in with the Arizona Diamondbacks but it was a trade to the Chicago White Sox that would see him achieve his greatest success.  In 2008, his first season with the Sox, the Outfielder would finish fifth in American League MVP voting with 36 Home Runs, 100 RBIs and a .965 OPS.  He would receive his first All Star Game nod and his lone Silver Slugger that year.

He would never have a season as good as that again, but would claim his second All Star appearance in 2011.  Quentin would play two more seasons with the San Diego Padres would suffer from knee problems, which have now forced him to retire.

Overall, Carlos Quentin would accumulate 702 Hits and 154 Home Runs over his nine year career, which as he did make ten, means he will not be placed on the Hall of Fame ballot in five years.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com wish Carlos Quentin a great post baseball career.

Charles Haley, the only player in the history of the National Football League to own five Super Bowl Rings was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year was just chosen to enter another Hall of Fame; the San Francisco 49ers Hall of Fame.

On September 14, the Niners will induct the former Defensive End/Linebacker into their Hall.  Haley played 106 of his 159 Games with San Francisco and recorded 66.5 Quarterback Sacks there.   He would secure two of his five Super Bowl Rings with the 49ers (the other three were with Dallas) and is the current all-time leader in Sacks in Super Bowls with 4.5.

Haley becomes the 25th member of the San Francisco 49ers Hall of Fame

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Charles Haley for his latest accolade and the San Francisco 49ers in general for making their Hall of Fame one of the best in North American Sports franchises.








It was announced today that Soul legend Ben E. King passed away at the age of 76. 

King would first gain notice as the lead singer of the Drifters, of which during his run with the group, hits like “There Goes My Baby”, “Save the Last Dance for Me” and “This Magic Monent”.  Historically speaking, King was only with the group a short time and would only record thirteen songs with them, but it did lead into what many felt was the apex of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted group.

King would strike out on his own and have two major hits as a solo act, “Spanish Harlem” and “Stand By Me”, a song that would become his signature hit and was resurrected via the film of the save name. 

This is a major loss for the world of music, and I don’t know about al of you but tonight I am going to listen to that soulful voice and remember a legend.
