Regular visitors of Notinhalloffame.com know that we are slowly working on the top 50 of every major team in the NHL, NBA, NFL and MLB.

Which Las Vegas Aces saw their Hall of Fame chances increase?

Committee Chairman
The Las Vegas Aces are a special team, having just won their second straight championship, and could be a squad that has a chance to be a WNBA dynasty. Whenever a title is won, it naturally helps key players make their respective Halls of Fame, and this win could help bring five women closer to Springfield. Despite not winning what would have been her third MVP (she finished third) A’Ja Wilson is the team’s star, leader, and arguably the new face of the league. She has only played six seasons, but the Basketball Hall does not have any minimum level…

We lost a legend today Chicago Bears icon, Dick Butkus, passed away today at the age of 80. A beast at the University of Illinois, Dick Butkus was a two-time All-American who won the Big Ten MVP in 1963.

One of the most punishing tacklers in football history, offensive skill players were quaking with the knowledge that they could be on the…

A'Ja Wilson wins the first ever Notinhalloffame.com WNBA Cup

Committee Chairman
For the last three seasons, we have awarded the NIHOF NBA Cup by awarding the best five players in the game with descending points, 5-4-3-2-1. Obviously, we can’t watch all the games, but box scores and write ups give an approximate idea as to who were each game’s top five. This year, we decided to the same for the WNBA. The top players for the WNBA 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…
