Andre, Thurman semi-finalists for Hall of Fame

[Dr. Lecter]

How the hell can Art Modell be considered over Ralph? That is a disgrace.

Derrick Thomas and Paul Tagliabue are gimme's.

That's a pretty tough list.

And Modell's been nominated ahead of Ralph because his team wins on occasion. It's been almost a decade and a half since the Bills have done anything signficant. People have short memories.

If Modell's elected to the HOF, he'll have to send someone to accept the honor for him...Browns fans would kill him if they saw him

How can Al Davis be in the Hall of Fame but not Ralph Wilson? Ralph loaned the guy money to start his friggin team.

Thomas better make it, Reed won't.

Young will get in before Modell.

It's a shame, but I'm sure Tags is a shoo-in.

Guy is going to get in one of these days.

Al also served as commisioner for the AFL for a time...and Al didn't start the Raiders...he didn't even become their coach until 1963

Bruce Matthews will make it. 17 years with one team and a good one at that.

Steve Tasker did not make finalist list which is wrong; he should be in already.
