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.

Looking back at the Super Bowl recent history the New England Patriots have are now on the doorsteps of becoming the most legendary team in the NFL and a strong favorite to win once more the next Super Bowl in 2018.
In 2017 they faced the Atlanta Falcons with a horrible first half being down by over 20 points. A tremendous comeback gave them a 34-28 overtime victory to win their 5th Super Bowl title in a league were no clear favorites have existed over time, but this seems to be changing with the Patriots consistent Super Bowl appearances and favoritism.

This was a day that I dreaded to see, even though I knew it was inevitable.
Standing in the checkout line at Trader Joe's, I looked at the BBC News website on my phone to see what was happening in the world. The inevitable had happened.
"How you doin' today?" the young woman asked as she pulled in my cart.

The Finalists have been announced, and along with regular contributor, Spheniscus, we will go back and forth with each candidate and openly debate as to which player would be a worthy Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee.

Committee Chairman: Spheniscus, here is one I really like in Kevin Mawae, but I wonder if I am in the minority here. I think what works against him is the teams he played for were not high profile or often any good. He played for Seattle for four years where they were mediocre and the Titans, who while good, is not a team who network executives wanted to put in the night game. He did have a great run in the middle of his career with some good Jets teams, but even though we are talking about New York City, isn’t that really the home of the Giants?

Committee Chairman: Spheniscus, we go to a team I am sure you are familiar with Jason Taylor, the former Dancing with the Stars contestant and Miami Dolphin. Taylor is a member of the 100 Sack Club and Defensive Player of the Year. I think Taylor is getting in, but I think they are going to put him on the backburner for one year. Thoughts on Taylor’s Hall of Fame candidacy and why so many NFL players go on DWTS?

Committee Chairman: Spheniscus, this is the third time that Kurt Warner has made the Finalists but this time he is the best (and only Quarterback) in this group. His main target, Isaac Bruce is also here and as poetic as it is for them to both go in together, it won’t happen. There is an unspoken hierarchy here, and Warner has it over Bruce. My initial thought is one Ram going in and 18 camera shots at Brenda Warner during the induction ceremony.
