Congratulations to all the members of the Class of 2015! Tingelhoff, in particular, had to endure a hellish wait just to make it in; this nomination came 12 years after his regular period of eligibility expired, making it a total of 32 years that he was shut out.

Plus, he played with Miami, a team that, for the most part, did not enjoy much success in his time w...

The list, overall, is pretty predictable. The thing that really pops out at me, though, is Terrell Davis finally becoming a finalist. Didn't see that happening so soon, honestly. Four modern era guys whom I've been saying will get in, and whom I still think will make it this year, are Bettis, Harris...
