Glad to see Greene finally get in there.

Agree he should have been in there a long time ago. Favre and Pace I think were obvious choices. I would have voted Terrell Owens over Marvin Harrison.

Tony Dungy might well be the least deserving person ever voted into the Hall.

You are 100% correct. I have no idea why he's even being nominated, much less selected. I honestly think it's just because he's popular with the network people for some reason.

I have absolutely no idea what Hall of Fame qualifications are in Tony Dungy's resume.

One Super Bowl appearance with Peyton Manning?

Zero Super Bowl appearances with arguably the best defense of all time?

Don't even get me started on the personal stuff, in which I think he's a ****ing asshat.

DeBartolo's long overdue

Agreed. I had no idea he was even being considered.

This
Was he voted in as a player or as a coach? Really doesn't matter he was an average coach and slightly above average player. I think he got the nice guy vote.

I think that Tony Dungy getting in relatively early in his eligibility process, and Ken Stabler getting in decades after his retirement, and after his death, tells you just what a joke the voting process is.

How did Dungy get in before Coryell?

Greene should have been a 1st ballot IMO he was a versatile linebacker who could play equally well in 3-4 or 4-3 good against the run or pass and incredible pass rusher who could come from the edge or blitz up the middle. Haley had him in SB appearances but was nowhere near the LB Greene was. Haley Transitioned to DE because basically he was a edge rusher. Both deserving but Greene was phenomenal. I also believe he held most sacks by a linebacker for a while more than either LT and DT.

And TO didn't make it. What a joke.

Agreed. I'm might be inclined to vote his mentor Schottenheimer over him if I had a say.

Coryell would be closer to deserving of the nod, but he doesn't belong either.
