1973 Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project Class. Here we are! Again!! If you have been following our Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project, you know we have asked the rhetorical question: What if the PFHOF began in January 1946?

Committee Chairman
On today’s episode of Get Up on ESPN, the Undertaker and his wife and fellow former wrestler Michelle McCool were on hand to promote WWE’s new show, LFG. WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque surprised the pair on satellite to inform McCool that she would be a member of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2025. McCool participated in the 2004 Divas Search, and though she did not win, she was signed by the company. After showing improvement, McCool became the inaugural Divas Champion, winning that in the 2008 Great American Bash, and a year later, won…
A look at every preliminary candidate for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame

Committee Chairman
The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame has announced the preliminary candidates for the Class of 2025, but before we get to that, a major change took place that has put forth new names that would not have been previously considered. The Hall altered their eligibility wait time for the second time in ten years, as they have reduced the wait time for induction from three years to two. Previously, they changed it from six to five years to three to two. Notably, going into 2025, no marquee names were eligible for induction. This allows Carmelo Anthony and Sue Bird…

1973 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS: Thank you for all of your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project.

We are also following the structure in that players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool. Each voter was asked to select 25…

The Pro Football Hall of Fame names its 2025 Class

Written by
Committee Chairman
Can we say again, how much we love “Hall of Fame Season.” Two weeks after the Baseball Hall of Fame announced the Class of 2025, the Pro Football Hall of Fame has announced their class, but it was not without controversy. This was the first year under the new system, whereby the 15 Modern Finalists was cut to 10, and then to 7. From there , the Committee cast their ballots for five of the seven, with a candidate needing 80 percent of the vote to enter. As we suspected, and even warned about, a scenario could emerge where you…
