I was searching for some other posts and I found this discussion entertaining. Marshall Faulk got in on his first ballot, so Maine, it took 8 years, but you've earned an "I told you so." Warner's career path after this thread was... unexpected. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: Dave Gray on December 29, 2011, 02:01:21 pm It seems like Jason Taylor will get in. Thomas will not.
Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: EKnight on December 29, 2011, 02:22:12 pm Real shame about Thomas. He is the epitome of work ethic, and had such good numbers for longer than many people realize. -EK

I hope you mean "I told you so" meaning I was right! Looking around the league, at players right now: Brett Favre is a lock. Emmitt Smith is a lock (and should be gone). Marshall Faulk is a lock. Jerry Rice. Even a broken clock is right twice a day, huh? ;) WOW, Spider...this was some fine digging, my friend! Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: Spider-Dan on December 29, 2011, 02:44:38 pm Yeah, I mean that you've earned the right to tell me I told you so.
Faulk didn't do anything amazing after this thread (unlike Warner) and he still got in on his first ballot, as you predicted he would. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: MaineDolFan on December 29, 2011, 03:34:29 pm 2001 was his last truly GREAT season, however he was a devastating back in 2002 as well. He was showing some real slow down signs in 2003, if I remember correctly? But he had punched his ticket by then. The man was amazing, a game changer. Warner was amazing, but he also has Marshall, Holt and Bruce (and to a lesser extent some real good fringe guys like Az-Zahir Hakim and Proehl) to go along with a rock-star offensive line.
Don't get me wrong on Warner. He went to Arizona and showed that he was a stud by doing it all over again with no running attack, two good WR and no line to speak of. But those days in StL were...well...I don't know if we will ever see anything like that again on offense any time soon. Not THAT much fire power. That was fun to watch.

Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: Dave Gray on December 29, 2011, 04:53:51 pm HAHAHA I had forgot about RFK! Any chance he is still here? He was in a fantasy football league some years ago. Then he had a bunch of other usernames, like IceHouse Football. I don't know what happened to him. I liked that guy. He made me laugh with his smugness. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: MikeO on December 29, 2011, 06:36:28 pm Me and a friend of mine debate Warner and the Hall of Fame all the time. I say its a YES without a question. My friend argues no.
The man played in 3 super bowls. Won one. Left the field in another with a lead and lost to a superior Pitt team that made a late drive. He has the stats. Threw for 32,000+ yards. Has almost 100 more TD's than INT's. I think Warner gets in. if Jim Kelly found a way in then Warner gets in. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers?

How many other QBs, if any, have played in the Super Bowl for two teams? Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: MikeO on December 30, 2011, 07:43:26 am How many other QBs, if any, have played in the Super Bowl for two teams? Craig Morton is the only other QB to "start" for 2 different teams I believe. With Dallas and with Denver. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: Brian Fein on December 30, 2011, 09:38:32 am I saw "Icehouse_Football" and thought "wow, he's back"
Nice dig! Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: jtex316 on December 30, 2011, 09:49:05 am This is the biggest gravedig I've ever seen. Do you guys realize it's from 2003? Do you realize that next year (2012) that TDMMC will have been here for 9 years?
Fuck. Title: Re: Are there are active Miami HOFers? Post by: Dave Gray on December 30, 2011, 04:36:28 pm Quite the gravedig. Impressive, really.
It's too bad that I accidentally deleted a bunch of our original posts. It would've been cool to go back and see the very first ones. I think we lost a few months-worth. |
