We here at Notinhalloffame.com are asking all of you for a huge favor!!!

As most of you know, we have collectively created the United States Athletics Hall of Fame, which, as the name suggests, is an amalgamation of ALL American Sports. Your contributions have been invaluable in this journey.

A group of former athletes, coaches, writers, and bloggers help determine the ballot, which is then sent to all of you. It is now time to determine the second class of the USAHOF.

For reference, you can check here to see who was inducted in 2023.

This is where we ask you for your support.

When you have a chance, please click on these links and vote on who you think should comprise the second USAHOF Class:

Athletes can be voted on here.

Coaches can be voted on here.

Contributors can be voted on here.

Voting can be done once per day.

It would mean a lot to us if you would take the time to vote and vote often!

As of this writing, Germaine Pratt has played the entirety of his five-year career with the Cincinnati Bengals, the team that drafted him from NC State in 2019’s Third Round.

Pratt won the starting Linebacker job midway through his rookie year and emerged as one of their better run defenders.  Year by year, Pratt has been increasing his tackling metrics, and in 2023, he broke out with 118 Tackles.  He followed that up with his best tackling campaign with 143 Tackles, but that would end his run in Cincy, as he grew frustrated with the Bengals' direction.  He was released by the team and signed with the Las Vegas Raiders in the offseason.

Tyler Boyd played his first eight seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, arriving in 2016 as a Second Round Pick from the University of Pittsburgh.

Boyd did not have many touches in his first two years (76 combined receptions) but settled in as a productive WR 2 over his last six years in the jungle.  He had over 1,000 Yards in both 2018 and 2019, and over his eight years, he had an even 6,000 Yards with 31 TDs for Cincinnati.

He departed Cincinnati for Tennessee via free agency.

Kansas City Football lost one of its early stars, Abner Haynes, who passed away at the age of 86.

Haynes was with the Chiefs from their inception, dating back to 1960 when they were the Dallas Texans.  Winning the AFL Rookie of the Year, Haynes would also win the UPI and The Sporting News Player of the Year off of his league-leading 875 Rushing Yards and 9 TDs.  A dual-threat Halfback, Haynes led the AFL in Rushing Touchdowns the next two seasons and was a vital part of the team’s AFL Championship in 1962.

With the Texans/Chiefs, Haynes rushed for 3,814 Yards and caught 199 passes for 2,739 Yards with 56 Touchdowns from scrimmage.  The man who was the franchise’s first superstar was inducted to their Hall of Honor in 1991.

We at Notinhalloffame.com would like to extend our condolences to Abner Haynes's fans, friends, and family.
