The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next twenty-five of the 2024 Football List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 251 to 275:

251. Larry Brooks
252. Jon Morris
253. Ed Danowski
254. Dennis Harrah
255. Jim David
256. Ken Gray
257. William “Pudge” Heffelfinger
258. Jeff Van Note
259. Troy Vincent
260. Frankie Albert
261. Charles Follis
262. NaVorro Bowman
263. Jessie Armstead

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.

Frankie Albert was the 10^th overall pick in 1942 by the Chicago Bears, but remember, the year in question was 1942.  The Stanford graduate would serve in the Navy for World War II, and upon his return, he would opt to play for his home state for the Los Angeles Bulldogs of the Pacific Coast League, before joining the San Francisco 49ers of the upstart All-American Football Conference.

Frankie Albert was the 10^th overall pick in 1942 by the Chicago Bears, but remember, the year in question was 1942.  The Stanford graduate served in the Navy during World War II, and upon his return, he played for his home state's Los Angeles Bulldogs in the Pacific Coast League before joining the San Francisco 49ers in the upstart All-American Football Conference.

Albert played all four years of the AAFC's existence with San Francisco, where he was one of the league's better Quarterbacks.  Albert was named a Second Team All-Pro three times, and he led the league in Passing Touchdowns in 1948 and 1949 and in Completion Percentage in 1948.  When the team was absorbed into the National Football League in 1950, Albert was named to the Pro Bowl, proving to the gridiron world that he was just as good as any NFL pivot. 

Albert threw for 10,795 Yards and 115 TDs and ran for another 1,272 Yards and 27 TDs.  These are great numbers for a Quarterback from 1946 to 1952, and they can't be dismissed.  Sadly, much of what happened in the AAFC has not translated into Canton.
