Couple of things:

1. I don't think there are a whole lot of people even in AZ or StL that are calling for Warner to be a first ballot guy.

2. My comment directed at you was your assertion that he didn't do anything in AZ to help his case. He most certainly did by just about anyone's measure.

3. Young deserved to be a first-ballot guy, IMO. He may not have been "revolutionary," but he was far more unique in his skill set than someone like Aikman (who, I agree, probably didn't deserve the first ballot designation).

1) I just responded to the guy who said he thought was a 1st round HOFer.

2) I didn't say it didn't help his case, it most certainly did. I just said it didn't help him enough to be a 1st ballot.

3) I can understand that.

They shouldn't have been. Guess that's my point.


I can more easily see why Aikman shouldn't have been a 1st round HOFer... But, why would you feel the same about Young? Young's stats alone are alltime great, while Aikmans' are marginal. And Young put together an alltime great Super Bowl performance to boot. Granted, he only has one and Aikman has three, but I still don't get why you would place Young in the same category as Aikman...

If you look at the stats, KW is a first ballot if your homey SY is.

If you look at my posts in this thread, you'll see that I totally support KW being a first ballot HOFer!
As well as my homey!
;)
rock on sir. Have you been to Carlsbad Caverns lately? That place is first ballot!

Ya know I haven't Iron Chef Mulli... Long overdue... I have stumbled upon a few other haunts however... so many here in the Valley... so little time... Oh - and I've been trying to drop a few lbs as well, so have stayed away from temptations like Carlsbad... I'm down 11 pounds since April. Taking is slow, but steady... :thumbup:

Good thinking. Places like that kill any ideas of dieting.
