Football Reporting Live (on TV) from the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:21 PM

I missed Brazile, Beathard, and Kramer, which was a bummer because I was interested in Brazile and Kramer.

Rumor has it that Beathard traded away his second-round speech for an eighth-round speech.

Brian Urlacher's wife is going to have back trouble some day, and Urlacher is spending all of his money on her teeth whitening. It looks like it's worth it, though.

I'd give Urlacher a D+ on the speech. Other

Brian Dawkins named his first two children Brian (male) and Briani (female).

Emmitt Thomas dealt with Dawkins when he was considering suicide and got credit for saving Dawkins' life.

I'd give Dawkins a B. Good solid speech, and he gave his wife a nice gold shawl during the ceremony. He also mentioned putting the names of people he's thankful for into his jacket so he'd think about them when he put it on. Pretty clever move.

More updates if I care enough to do so. Randy Moss is next, and I'm looking forward to seeing highlights from his time with the Raiders.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:24 PM

Only 13 QBs threw touchdowns to Randy Moss. I would have guessed more.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:26 PM

Moss only has six pro bowls? That's surprising. Deron Cherry has that many.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:30 PM

Randy Moss is starting out with a major ego boilover, intermixed with significant Jesus.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:30 PM

I hope your drinking game doesn't involve the number of times that Randy Moss mentions Jesus. If so, you should call 911.

I'm skipping it. He is an ass.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:34 PM

Most of the front row is Randy Moss's children.

Holy cow. I think there are nine of them. He just cited their names from memory.

They're closing out the ceremony with Randy Moss, Terrell Owens (in absentia), and Ray Lewis. I would advise you to stay away from the television. I have a welder's mask and gloves on, and I'll report what I see.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:40 PM

Haha. He just thanked Al Davis and then said that things didn't go according to plan there. I still remember him walking his routes.

Belichick and Kraft are standing backstage, so I presume that we'll get eight hours of reporting about their flight and hotel after the ceremony.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:41 PM

Randy thanked the Titans. Wait, what? And the 49ers. He played for those teams? I need to look him up.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:43 PM

Vince Wilfork is there in a folding chair. I expect trouble.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:45 PM

Randy's speech is done. I give him a C-. He had a rather angry and rambling style. He deserves a spot, though, so that's fine. Not a great speech at all, but no policewomen were run over.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:46 PM

Okay, they skipped over Terrell Owens. Ray Lewis is next. Everyone put on your nuclear ego shields. Be safe.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:47 PM

Ray Lewis has a portable microphone on. I'm betting that he may do his urkel dance to embarrass himself one last time. Either that, or he's going to run out into the audience and stab someone.

**Rain Man** · 08-04-2018, 07:49 PM

Ray Lewis may be a murderer, but I have to acknowledge that he has a great haircut.
