Congratulations to Jim Thome for hitting his 600th career Home Run today.  Thome has reached this milestone relatively quietly and by all accounts without controversy.  It is a shame that he has not received more publicity for this achievement.
Congratulations are again in order for Dennis Rodman, Artis Gilmore, Chris Mullin, Arvydas Sabonis, Tom Sanders and Tex Winter to the Basketball Hall of Fame.  For those wondering....we have FINALLY made or selections and will be presenting our top 100 shortly. 
Jani Lane, the lead singer of Warrant was found dead today at the age of 47.  We will admit, that this was not one of our favorite bands.  They were a little on the cheesy side even by their own aerosol genre and were not exactly the most respected.  Regardless, they did make it and were the last of their kind to make it big before the Grunge boom took over.  Over twenty years later, and at a time when we are a liitle less pretentious about our music, Warrant is thought of by us as a fun band who was never meant to taken seriously.  Cherrie Pie is no longer a guilty pleasure, but a bit of an "approaching middle aged" part anthem for us now.  We don't ever see them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but they were among the select group of musicians who could say that they made it.   We'll celebrate that for today.

Out with the old list....in with the new one.   As the Football Hall of Fame has just inducted seven new members, we here at notinhalloffame thought now was the time to introduce the NEW Football list for Canton, Ohio.   With Marshall Faulk & Prime Time entering on their first year of elgibility; Jerry Kramer has vaulted into the Number one slot.  We have Will Shields entering at #3, and a few other debuts and changes as well. 

Give it a look and let us know what you think!
