Not a bad class overall. I wouldn't have put Irvin in anyways, but good for the others and congrats to the new HoFers.

With Warren Moon going in I bet Peyton Manning is breathing a sign of relief right now knowing hes already in the HOF.

Harry Carson should have been elected to the Hall of Fame years ago. He's been so bitter over this that I wouldn't be surprised to see him refuse to attend his own induction ceremony.

Good choices, all.

Madden? Mr. 1-6 in AFC Championship games.
Great announcer if not the best color guy of all time. But with all that talent, the Raiders should have done better than one Super Bowl in his 10 years.
Not to tick you Steeler fans off but to this day Madden and the rest of the Raiders who were on the field swear that the "immaculate reception" hit the ground first. I agree with them.

OK, I live in Baltimore right now (but not a native) and I know this will set off a Cleveland firestorm, but Art Modell deserves to be in the HOF. His absence is nothing short of a mockery of the HOF itself.
The fact that Warren Moon (Warren freakin' Moon?) is now in and Modell is not is farce.

I might have gone for Thruman Thomas over Moon but it's pretty close.
To: infidel29
Only disagreement I have is Warren Moon getting in before Thurman Thomas.

I am happy for those who made it, but very sad that my favorite player, Derrick Thomas of the KC Chiefs, did not make it on his second attempt. A great player who died before he was through with his football career.
I will hope for his name to be called next year.

Aikman? Hall of Fame? Maybe in the Dallas Hall, but he's not that good.
White?
Madden, of all these guys, should really be there: years as player, as coach, as TV host set him apart.
The rest? Good, very good players. But not Hall of Fame level players.

Re: "I wouldn't have put Irvin in anyways..."
That may explain some of the Cowboy bias... (more at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1567387/posts )
When discussing Irvin's off field drugs use, there is not any excuse, but if Lawrence Taylor can get in with his very high profile drug use, then Irvin should be a lock!
