Jack Butler, Dermontti Dawson, Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy, Curtis Martin and Willie Roaf.
Can I just say how great it is to be living in the post-Monk-in-the-Hall era? Before, every year of inductees was a painful reminder that Monk wasn't in. Now, every year is a sweet reminder that justice was finally done.
I know there are still some Skins who deserve to be there and aren't, but IMO the most deserving of all got his due, and I celebrate it every year.

Ain't that the truth.
Who's the biggest oversight currently?
My heart goes out to Jerry Kramer - especially since an OL just got in and the block Kramer threw on Jethro Pugh in the Ice Bowl might be why it's called the Lombardi Trophy and not the Landry Trophy.

Yes...
Now, it's just painful reminder that Larry Brown, Jerry Smith, and my man, The Mouse, aren't in.

Until this team becomes a contender and a winner, it will lack the recognition it deserved in the past.
Most journalists will vote for the flavour of the month. We have not been the flavour of the last DECADE.
I am just wondering how many detractors Brady and Belickhek will have now? Probably the same who now praise and "always knew" Cough;in and Eli Manning were this good. Probably the SAME ones.
Vision for some is 20/20 ... on hindsight and it is ever evolving based on the LAST result.
