Not in Hall of Fame News
There is a new must-see site at the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Today, a permanent statue at the entrance of the Hall of the late Gordie Howe, now welcomes everyone who enters the hallowed institution in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
The legend amassed 1,850 Points in the NHL and was the first player to play 1,500 Games in the NHL. Howe was a multi-time Hart Trophy winner and actually played long after he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
There are still many hockey pundits who view Gordie Howe as the best player to all time.
If you didn’t have a reason to visit the Hockey Hall of Fame, you do now!
Just watch out for the elbows!

The former 1st Round Pick (17th Overall) from the University of Iowa would become a two time Pro Bowl Selection (2011 & 2012) and would start 144 of his 156 Games at Linebacker for the Vikes. Greenway would record 18 Quarterback Sacks and 11 Interceptions. He was named one of our top 50 Minnesota Vikings when we put that out last year.
Greenway is not likely to enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he will be eligible in 2022.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to thank Chad Greenway for a memorable career and we wish him the best in his post-playing career.

Awards = HOF? Part Twenty-Four: Gold Glove First Base

From the Desk of the Chairman
We here at Notinhalloffame.com thought it would be fun to take a look at the major awards in North American team sports and see how it translates into Hall of Fame potential.
Needless to say, different awards in different sports yield hall of fame potential. In basketball, the team sport with the least amount of players on a roster, the dividend for greatness much higher. In baseball, it is not as much as a great individual season does not have the same impact.
We are now taking a look at the Gold Glove Award, given annually to the best defensive player in MLB in each respective position.
