It is a sad day in the world of heavy metal as it was announced that Motorhead drummer, Phil Taylor, known to his fans as the “Philthy Animal” passed away today at the age of 61.
Taylor was an original member of the group and played on all their signature hits, including Ace of Spades, and ten of their albums. He was with the band from 1975 to 1984 and 1987 to 1992, last leaving the band (fired, actually) during recording sessions for the March or Die album.
While he was not with the band for over twenty years, he is a beloved figure among fans of the band and he end another former member, guitarist, “Fast” Eddie Clarke, joined them on stage (but did not play) in a reunion of sorts in Birmingham, England, right before the “new” lineup broke out “Ace of Spades”.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to extend our condolences to the family and friends of Phil Taylor at this time.

This is the portion of the website where you have the opportunity to let us know your opinion as whether retired players who are not yet eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame should be enshrined in Canton. This process also helps us establish where these players should be ranked once eligible.
We already had the Football Futures from 2016, 2017 and 2018 up, and recently we have updated our 2017 Football Futures and our2018 Football Futures Section, and recently we unveiled the brand new 2019 Football Futures Section.
We have one more section in Football that we put up, and yes, you guessed correctly with the new 2020 Football Futures.

Darnell Dockett, a Defensive Tackle who was a three time Pro Bowl Selection and played his entire career with the Arizona Cardinals.
John Abraham, a Defensive End who was a five time Pro Bowler, a two Time First Team All Pro and a member of the 100 Sack club.
Justin Smith, a Defensive End who was a former Defensive Player of the Year and a five time Pro Bowl Selection.

Michael Roos, an Offensive Tackle who went to one Pro Bowl.
Nick Hardwick, a Center who went to one Pro Bowl and played his entire career with the San Diego Chargers.

Hockey HOF Class of 2015 officially inducted
Nov 08, 2015

Not in Hall of Fame News
Yesterday, the Hockey Hall of Fame officially inducted the Class of 2015 and it was certainly an international affair as players from four countries entered the hallowed hall of Toronto. This is the second consecutive year that this has occurred, and follows induction cases of 2011 and 2012 that had players from three different countries enter.
Representing Sweden, this year’s headliner is Swedish born Defenceman, Niklas Lidstrom, the seven time Norris Trophy winner who anchored the Detroit Red Wings to four Stanley Cups. Lidstrom is undeniably the top Defenceman of the 2000’s and also holds a Conn Smythe Trophy in his trophy case.
Lidstrom’s longtime teammate and roommate on the road, Sergei Fedorov also got in. The Russian born star won the Hart Trophy in 1994 and is a two time recipient of the Frank J. Selke as the NHL’s top Defensive Forward. He would win three Stanley Cup Wings with the Red Wings.
The American representatives are two Defenceman. Phil Housely, and eight time NHL All Star from St. Paul, Minnesota and Angela Ruggiero, a long time defender for the U.S. women’s team.
The lone Canadian player is another blueliner in Chris Pronger who won both the Norris and Hart Trophy in 2000. The native of Dryden, Ontario would also make five All Star Teams and win the Stanley Cup with the Anaheim Ducks in 2007.
Hockey Hall of Fame CEO, Bill Hay and Carolina Panthers owner, Peter Karmanos Jr, rounds out the class.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to again extend our congratulations to this new class.
