Tito Ortiz: Hall of Fame
Jul 08, 2012
Written by
Committee Chairman
Amidst the hoopla of Silva/Sonnen II, Tito Ortiz is now officially a member of the UFC Hall of Fame. The Dana White run organization does not appear to have any pattern to decide inductees, nor any discernable requirement that we can tell. Still, the UFC is the fastest growing sport of the last ten years, and we again congratulate Tito Ortiz for becoming the ninth member of the Hall.

Baseball Hall of Famer, Reggie Jackson has never been shy with his opinions. In this week's Sports Illustarted, Jackson has this to say: On Alex Rodriguez: "Al's a very good friend. But I think there are real questions about his numbers. As much as I like him, what he admitted about his usage does cloud some of his records." On players liked to PEDs getting into the Hall of Fame: "If any of those guys get in, no Hall of Famer will attend." On Andy Pettitte possibly beign inducted into the Hall of Fame: "The question is going to be…

Sammartino turns down WWE HOF

Written by
Committee Chairman
Sal Corrente, on behalf of Bruno Sammartino had announced that the former two time WWE World Heavyweight Champion was contacted to be a part of the WWE Hall of Fame induction next year in New York. In what should be shocking to nobody, Sammartino has again turned down the invitation. The former champion has been very vocal on his stance against Vince McMahon and the WWE, and has stated in the past that he would be a hypocrite if he ever accepted a slot in the Hall. Our #2 ranked wrestler on the WWE List appears to be forever absent…

The 2012 Hockey HOF Class Announced!
Jun 26, 2012
Written by
Committee Chairman
The Hockey Hall of Fame has announced its latest class to their Hall of Fame and it is difficult to argue with any of these selections. This year’s class will include our number one selection, Joe Sakic. The former Hart Trophy winner enters in his first year of eligibility and was a proven winner on every level. Joining him is our number three selection, Adam Oates, who frankly we think fell through the cracks and should have been inducted years ago. Our number six selection, Mats Sundin also enters the Hall. Like Sakic, the Swedish star enters his first year…

It is that time again where we announce our Notinhalloffame Football Revisions, and we are pleased to announce that the very top has not changed at all! Former Offensive Line stand out from the Green Bay Packers, Jerry Kramer returns to top the list as the most worthy candidate who is not yet in the Football Hall of Fame. Kramer is the only man who was named to the NFL 50th Anniversary Team who was not selected to the Hall of Fame, and is a member of two Super Bowl Winning teams. Multiple theories have been tossed out to explain…
Gossage wants Clemens out of the HOF

Written by
Committee Chairman
On ESPN radio today, Baseball Hall of Famer Goose Gossage stated that Roger Clemens should NOT be going to the Hall of Fame. The former reliever adamantly stated that Clemens and other PED users should not be rewarded for “cheating” and stated firmly “there is no place for them in the Hall of Fame”. This is not the first time that a current Hall of Fame player has gone on record that those caught taking Performance Enhancing Drugs should be banned from Cooperstown, yet it still carries weight every time you hear it. It was one thing when fans and…
Lanny Poffo claims his brother would only go into the HOF if his whole family went in with him.

Committee Chairman
An interesting video has surfaced on YouTube that has significance to the WWE Hall of Fame. As you may have heard “Leaping” Lanny Poffo (the brother of our number one selection, Randy “Macho Man” Savage) has stated that Savage had turned down the Hall unless his entire family (Lanny and their father, Angelo) were inducted too. Poffo has again taken to YouTube, this time with his mother to corroborate that statement. As we don’t really have any reason to doubt Lanny, we raise this question: Should it happen? It can be easily argued that if this is the only way…
