Re: 2023 Hall of Very Good Finalists
Ha, ha, I know - I still have to weigh him against who's left out there though. I'm not sure what you mean by "out there". To me what is relevant is who else is on the ballot, not who else is in the football ether. You knew what I meant - you just didn't agree :). Maybe not logical, but t...

Re: 2023 Hall of Very Good Finalists
Peggy Parratt was a player and (while I've never seen film on him) was a supposedly excellent one. He played on at least four teams that won (or were tied for) the Ohio League Championship against such pre-NFL powerhouses as Massillon and Canton. I know he was a player, just saying I'm not sure whe...

Re: 2023 Hall of Very Good Finalists
Parratt actually hasn't gotten my vote yet and may not this year. Admittedly, as I work my way from 1890 to 1920, I'm only on 1906 so it's possible Parratt wows me later. My feeling from my superficial research on his contemporaries is that Homer Davidson is the player who stands out, but I'll updat...

Re: 2023 Hall of Very Good Finalists
I still want to know what about him or any other 1950s end is more or less "tight" than the rest. Nothing. I think this is an incorrect argument. Maybe blame the Steelers. I think they put him in their ring of honor as a tight end. The author of the "The Golden Age of Pro Football&qu...

Re: 2023 Hall of Very Good Finalists
Its the Steelers though guys, the last team to leave the single-wing, which had to have helped Nickels' blocking ability. As soon as the Steelers went to the T, his numbers jumped. Had Nickel played longer into the Bobby Layne years, might have made the Hall but we dont know because he was hurt in ...
