1971 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS: Thank you for all of your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project. If you are unaware of what that is, we acted like the PFHOF had its first class in January 1946. We have completed the years up to 1970.

The Australian guard is in the final year of his lucrative contract with the Nets, but he has spent a large chunk of that time struggling with recurring injury problems. Simmons has shown glimpses of a resurgence this season but the Nets want to be sure it is not a mere facade before deciding on his future. The Nets haven’t lit up the NBA this season, but Simmons has performed relatively well. His…

We lost a legend today. The greatest leadoff man in baseball history and the GOAT of the basepaths, Rickey Henderson, passed away.  He was 65. Henderson played for 25 years, defying age and mystifying logic with his enigmatic words.  He was s force of nature on and off the field, referring to himself in the third person, and displaying a passion for baseball that had no peers. From Oakland, Henderson played a large part of his career with the hometown Athletics, the team where he set the single-season record in Stolen Bases (130).  He would shatter Lou Brock’s record, a…
