Slowly but surely we are getting there.

We have added another Top 50 list to one of the Big Four of North American Team sports.
Last month, regular contributor, Spheniscus and I debated the Hall of Fame merits of those who were on the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot.

Now that the Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2016 has announced their class has done the same.  We were hopeful to do this prior to the announcement of the actual inductees, but life, as it often does simply got in the way!

The expected retirement of Peyton Manning will be announced tomorrow and there should be no doubt that he will be selected for the Hall of Fame on his first try.

The statistics that he retires with are incredible:


2 Super Bowl Rings

5 Time MVP

7 First Team All Pro Selections

14 Pro Bowls

4 Time Completions Leader

2 Time Completion Percentage Leader

3 Time Passing Yards Leader

4 Time Touchdown Passes Leader

3 Time Quarterback Rating Leader

6 Time QBR Leader

189-79 Career Record

6,125 Completions (2nd Overall)

71,940 Passing Yards (1st Overall)

539 Touchdown Passes (2nd Overall)

96.5 Passing Rating (5th Overall)

270.5 Passing Yards/Game (3rd Overall)

65.3 Completion Percentage (3rd Overall)


It makes your head spin doesn’t it?

We aren’t going to go through his entire career as chances are all of you are very familiar with his vast accomplishments, so we will say this:

Peyton Manning is a first ballot Hall of Famer, and will debut at #1 on our Notinhalloffame.com football list when he is eligible for the Hall of Fame, which by the way will be 2021.

Thank you Peyton, as we loved watching one of the best of all time.
