Belichick out — for now
So, the NFL Hall of Fame results are looming.
So, great names from the last couple of decades are waiting for the call, including former Best of Preps speakers Drew Brees and Eli Manning.
(Side question: Think either Drew or Eli meets new people and, rather than “Hi, I’m Super Bowl-winning QB Drew Brees,” offers, “Hello, I’m former Best of Preps speaker Eli Manning” these days? Yeah, me too.)
For all the layover designed by the NFL’s goal to keep the Hall forever exclusive with limited inductees each year and lofty percentages among a small voting pool — admirable goals, mind you, as above average ball boys get into the basketball Hall and Ted Simmons is in Cooperstown — this one was eye-popping.
