Written by
Committee Chairman
A large part of my childhood is gone. Hulk Hogan, who was the face of professional wrestling throughout the 1980s and 1990s, passed away after suffering cardiac arrest in his home. He was 71. Born Terry Bollea, Hulk Hogan began his professional wrestling career in the late 1970s and quickly found his way to the WWF, where he wrestled Andre the Giant in Shea Stadium. He left the WWF when he won the role of “Thunderlips” in Rocky III (WWF owner, Vince McMahon Sr., would not sanction his decision), and when the film came out, he was pushed as a…

From Birmingham, England, Osbourne was the front man of the influential band, Black Sabbath, whose hits “Paranoid”, “War Pigs” and “Iron Man” remain metal staples to this day. Osbourne would break out on his own, churning out bigger hits, most notably “Crazy Train”. His career experienced a renaissance on reality TV with his family, “The Osbournes,” which introduced Ozzy to a new generation of fans. The “Prince of Darkness” had been ill for…

NIHOF MLB 2025 Cup Standings: Week 15, JULY 14
Jul 18, 2025
Written by
Committee Chairman
It is with great pleasure that we have brought back the Notinhalloffame MLB Regular Cup, and let us explain how this works: For every regular-season game, we anointed the top five players with the most points, in descending order: 5-4-3-2-1. We know the following: The top players for the MLB NIHOF Cup are not always the best in the league, as injuries keep players out of games, and a premium on staying healthy can help pile up points. It also does not hurt to be a top player on an average or mediocre team, as they can amass Cup points…
