Originally posted by ErodIt's not half-baked. I just want the HOF to be exclusive for the truly special players to play the game. Moon doesn't qualilfy in my book. To me, Boomer Esiason is as qualified as Moon.

We're in front of the Hall Of Fame voters, and I drop his stats as I did in this thread. That's the case FOR Warren Moon ....
Then you stand up up to make the case AGAINST Warren Moon ... and try to convince the voters with "Eh. He never really 'did it' for me."? That's your argument?
That's the definition of half-baked, Erod. In fact, "half" is generous.5WG | Facebook | Twitter | fiftytwoplays

Originally posted by coogrfanOne thought has struck me as I read through this thread. It seems to me that the more Oiler games you actually saw, the less inclined you are to believe Warren should have be in the Hall. I wonder why that is?
Because those are also probably the people who remember the disappointments the most...couple that with this ridiculous over emphasis of winning rings and that probably explains a lot of what you describe.Comment

Honestly, I don't know. But I do know that until a couple of weeks ago, the general consensus of opinion here in Houston was that Moon was a longshot at best to make it in his first year of eligibility.Comment

Re: Warren Moon is not Hall worthy
This thread cracks me up.
It's the Pro Football HoF and not the NFL HoF.
He's the all-time leader in passing yards. Even if you take away his CFL stats, his numbers are still excellent.
I know you probably think the CFL is irrelevant to this discussion but it's not. John Clayton (a voter) appeared on the Team 1040 and said he took Moon's CFL stats into consideration. He also said several other voters he talked to also considered his CFL stats.Comment

WTF? Why don't we then allow college stats--or how about high school? Because there's no way in hell you can compare the CFL to the NFL. So anyone who took Moon's CFL stats into consideration is an idiot--and actually provides a good argument against him being inducted so soon (if at all).Comment

If Canton was truly the "Pro Football HoF" as you and John Clayton apparently believe, why isn't there a special Herschel Walker wing of the HoF? The answer should be obvious:it's because Canton is all about celebrating the accomplishments of the NFL's greatest players.Comment

So the CFL is equal to the NFL? If not, why the hell allow those stats?Comment

If only NFL stats should be taken into consideration by the voters than the HoF should change its name.Comment
