Committee Chairman

Committee Chairman

Kirk Buchner, "The Committee Chairman", is the owner and operator of the site.  Kirk can be contacted at [email protected] .
Regular visitors to our website know that we will be launching in 2016 our fourth section which will discuss and rank the North American franchises from the four major leagues (MLB, NHL, NBA  & NFL) and how they honor their past players and contributors. 

With that in mind, it was announced by the Orlando Magic that former Center, Shaquille O’Neal will become the third member of their franchise’s Hall of Fame.

The Magic would draft the big man from LSU with the first overall pick in the 1992 NBA Draft and in his first week as a professional would win the NBA Player of the Week honors; the first player to do so.  He would make the All Star Team, win the NBA Rookie of the Year and average 23.4 Points and 13.9 Rebounds per Game in his rookie year and was a bona fide star in the game of basketball.

Over the next three years in Orlando, O’Neal would continue growing his game and his brand, and would win the scoring title in 1995 and would be named to a pair of Second Team All NBA teams, a Third Team All NBA, and three more All Star Games.  Shaq would also take Orlando to their first NBA Finals in 1995.  Overall as a member of the Magic, Shaquille O’Neal would score 27.2 Points and 12.5 Rebounds in his four seasons there.

We would like to congratulate Shaquille O’Neal for receiving this honor.



Speculated yesterday, but made official today, San Francisco 49er Linebacker, Patrick Willis has announced that at the age of 30 he will be retiring from active competition in the National Football League.

The news has taken many by surprise in the Bay Area as Willis had previously told media and fans that he was planning to return to the gridiron.

Drafted eleventh overall by the Niners in 2007 out of the University of Mississippi, Patrick Willis would make an immediate impact going to his first of seven consecutive Pro Bowls, becoming one of only three defensive players to make seven straight trips to Hawaii in his first seven years.

In his rookie year, Willis would also make lead the NFL in Tackles, make the First Team All Pro Team, the AP Defensive Rookie of the Year and win the NFL Alumni Linebacker of the Year Award. Accolades would keep coming his way as Willis would secure four more First Team All Pro nods (2009-12) and two more NFL Alumni Linemen of the Year Awards (2009 & 2010). The Linebacker would also be named the San Francisco 49ers MVP twice.

Although he only played eight seasons, Willis was an elite Linebacker and an excellent candidate for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

We would like to thank Patrick Willis for the memories on the field and wish him the best on the next aspect of his life.




After nine seasons in the National Football League, Running Back, Maurice Jones-Drew has elected to formally retire as a player.

Chosen in the second round of the 2006 NFL Draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars, Maurice Jones-Drew would eventually become the face of the franchise and for a three year period would be regarded as one of the top Running Backs in the NFL. Jones-Drew would make the Pro Bowl in three consecutive seasons (2009-11), would be a First Team All Pro in 2011 and would win the NFL Alumni Running Back of the Year Award in both 2010 and 2011.

2011 would also see Jones-Drew win the Rushing Title, but in the last three seasons, the final one with the Oakland Raiders, injuries would accumulate and he would not be able to tally 1,000 Rushing Yards in a season again.

Overall, “MJD” retires with 7,168 Rushing Yards, 2,514 Receiving Yards, 2,187 Return Yards and a total of 76 Touchdowns.

Maurice Jones-Drew is likely not a Pro Football Hall of Fame and it will be difficult for him to grab a high ranking spot once eligible on our Notinhalloffame.com Football List but he should be recognized by the Jaguars for his accomplishments there and giving the fans a reason to go the stadium when the team was not especially good.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Maurice Jones-Drew on a great career and we look forward to see what he will do next.






It was announced today on Monday Night Raw that former Women’s Champion, Alundra Blayze/Madusa will be going into their WWE Hall of Fame.

Blayze first came into prominence in professional wrestling in the American Wrestling Association where she would act as a manager and would win the AWA Women’s Championship.  Known as Madusa Miceli, and later simply just Madusa, she would hone her craft in Japan and return to the United States in World Championship Wrestling in 1991 as a member of the Dangerous Alliance, led by Paul E. Dangerously (Paul Heyman).

In 1993, she would join the World Wrestling Federation and was rechristened, Alundra Blayze, and would have a women’s division built around her.  She would become a three time WWF Women’s Champion and feud with Bull Nakano and Bertha Faye but while still the WWF Women’s Champion, she would bolt for World Championship Wrestling and infamously on an episode of Monday Night Nitro throw the title belt in a trash can and reclaim the Madusa name.

Madusa would have matches in WCW against Nakano, but would be more known for winning the WCW Cruiserweight Championship.  She would also be used as a trainer for other female talent, namely Torrie Wilson and Stacy Kiebler. 

Following her wrestling career, Madusa would become very successful (and still is) in the world of monster trucks winning the 2005 Monster Jam Finals in Las Vegas.

This marks not only another former wrestler who has mended very high fences with the WWE but the third year in a row where a female has been inducted.
