I love when guys honor their high school coaches and teachers. For obvious reasons, of course. LOL yeah, it's always very easy to relate .. it's a common theme too! Not a big fan when guys get too "preachy" but I think all of the guys have shown their true personalities/reasons they were good

This is great.
Preseason football on NBC and a show on the HOF inductees on NFL Network.
Welcome back, NFL football. I agree. Speaking of the NFL network, comcast here recently made it a $10 add on. It was part of a higher tier channel selection, but you didn't have to pay another $10 a month to watch. I passed. Is it like that for you and others? I have the 2nd highest tier on Dish, and it's part of that package as well.

One thing is clear in almost all of the speeches each year and that is that these guys honor all of those that have helped them.
Then, of course, there is TO. I went to his HOF ceremony yesterday...it was wonderful. He said all the things those others said. Very emotional. All of his HS coaches were there and honored by TO. His former teammates on both the football and basketball team. His coaches in both sports were there. His receivers coach from the Niners...forget his name, Ray Sherman from the Cowboys spoke...it was very nice and humble all the way.

In terms of the Canton stuff, Jerry Kramer was my favorite by far ... what a speech

Be fair! The new rule is every bit as objective as the "What Is a Catch? Rule" and any scoring for gymnastics or judges' scores for figure skating and such. And you have a fabulous IR and all the second guessing we need to enforce it. Do you expect to see a key player ejected, say inside of two minutes in a tight game. HOW it is enforced and when the officials tighten up the calls, can cost a game. Suddenly 4th quarter and it's flag day. This rule is exactly what anybody needs to argue NFL game management IMO. Not sure how protected players are on either side of the tackle. We tackled like crap last year; this will help.
