KEN STABLER DEAD

[blgridesagain]

Was he voted in while? NO!



My only point being that if they're saying he's worthy of the HOF now why couldn't they of honored the man while he was still alive. I just think its a shame that they waited until his passing to re-think things. JMO.

There were quite a few who were saying it, and believing he belonged in the HOF while he was alive.

...I don't know, but that's the way things seems to go when someone dies...too little too late. This is one of the reasons I have insisted that when my time comes, I don't want any kind of funeral service, no flowers, no words spoken about me in death that were not spoken while I was alive.

Amen, were on the same page........

I too don't want any funeral, no memorial service, no embalming or turning me into a hollow mummy, for dis-fkn-play. No words, cremate me, throw my ashes in the woods of the San Gabriel or High Sierra........

no words, only music, and in no formal way........

Good Point Rick, Stabler IMO, tho' a short career, too many games where he had to take backseats to Lamonica and Blanda. I'd not balk to put 'The Snake' in the HOF, IMO, he always belonged there.

Despite the short career as the starting QB, he just made too big an impact on Football during his tenure/era, to not be in Canton........my 3 cents........!

ain't nothing like hunting razorbacks, with only a pocket knife in hand; to slow 'em down, (of course), while the Hunter bites the arteries of the Razorback neck in two.....!!
