I woke up today and got an email from Dennis Keith Orlandini, who has begun blogging on our site.  He informed that Minnie Minoso passed away, thus making any possible Hall of Fame induction for him posthumous.  Minoso was a Golden Era Candidate this past year but failed to generate the necessary support.

Rather than give a biography on his life, I am going to ask you to follow this link to an article that Mr. Orlandini wrote that summed up why he should be in the Baseball Hall.

RIP: Mr. Minoso, this is a huge loss for Baseball.




Rip Hamilton may not have played a game in the NBA since 2013, but the former 2004 NBA Champion with the Detroit Pistons has officially announced that he is retiring from active competition.

Hamilton was the seventh pick overall out of the University of Connecticut where he won the NCAA Title, won the Final Four MVP and was a two time Big East Player of the Year.  Drafted by the Washington Wizards and in his third and final year with Washington averaged 20 Points per Game. 

He would be traded to the Detroit Pistons and continue posting solid numbers and would go to three consecutive All Star Games from 2006 to 2008 and would have two seasons with Detroit scoring over 20 Points per Game.  In addition to his Championship Ring in 2004 where he had a 21.5 PPG in the Playoffs.

Hamilton would be waived by the team in 2010, and would find his way to the Chicago Bulls where he would play his final three seasons until he was waived by the team in 2013.  He has been a Free Agent until he retired formally today.

Overall in his career, Rip Hamilton averaged 19.1 Points per Game with a PER of 16.5.  We would like to tank Hamilton for his career and we will be ranking him accordingly once eligible. 




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, the Kansas City Royals have announced that their former captain, Mike Sweeney will be joining their franchises’ Hall of Fame.

Sweeney was drafted as a Catcher in 1991 and would make the main roster in 1995 and by 1999 he was an everyday player alternating from First Base and Designated Hitter.  Sweeney would have four consecutive seasons batting over .300 and would slap 20 pus Home Runs for Kansas City six times.  A five time All Star, Sweeney would accumulate 1,398 Hits, 197 Home Runs, a Slash Line of .299/.369/.492 and a bWAR of 23.9 over his thirteen seasons as a Kansas City Royal.

Sweeney becomes the first member of the Hall of Fame since 2011 and the 26th overall.

We would like to congratulate Mike Sweeney for this accolade.








It was announced today that Luke Williams and Butch Miller, collectively known as the Bushwhackers will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

The duo from New Zealand actually began teaming in 1964 as the Sheepherders in NWA New Zealand and a year later would make the American debut for NWA Hawaii.  Over the next fifteen years they would work off and on between various American promotions and their native New Zealand, but it was not until the mid-80’s that they really became a team that the United States took notice of.

In 1986 the team would work for Bill Watts in the UWF and win their version of the Tag Team Championship over Ted DiBiase and “Dr. Death” Steve Williams before losing it to the Fantastics.  Williams and Miller wrestled as a bloodthirsty unit and were vicious rulebreakers, and far from the fan favorites that they would later become.

They would have a good run in the UWF, another in the WWC in Puerto Rico and following the merge between the NWA and the UWF, the tag team would be a part of the talent migrating to Atlanta.  Williams and Miller would wrestle regularly on NWA television on TBS in 1988 and would appear at the Crockett Cup and the second and third Clash of the Champions, but Vince McMahon and the World Wrestling Federation would come calling.

Debuting in January of 1989, they shed their previous gimmick (though kept the look) and became the happy go lucky Bushwhackers.  The comedy team complete with catchy theme and signature walk quickly became fan favorites and would soundly defeat the Rougeau Brothers at Wrestlemania V.  The team would never seriously be contenders for the WWF Tag Team Championship, but for nearly seven years in the organization they always a got a positive reaction from the fans and put smiles on a lot of faces.

This induction marks the first WWE Hall of Fame inductees from New Zealand and we here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Luke Williams and Butch Miller for this honor.
