Encouraging to see Craig qualify as a finalist  He is way over due my man. I think he just might finally make it.

I have said it before dozens of times - Roger Craig deserves to be in the Hall as much as anyone who isn't in there today (with the exception of Rice and Emmitt). But I don't see him making it this year.

As a fan, I agree, but if I was a hall voter, I would not vote him in. He doesn't have the numbers or the longevity to warrant being a HOF imo. He would be in the hall of very good along with Ricky Watters, but not the HOF.

Let the arguments begin. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/peter_king/01/31/mmqb/index.html?eref=sihpThe following is presented simply to open the discussion for the week on the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2010. The 44 selectors for the Hall gather at 9 a.m. Saturday for this year's selection meeting in Fort Lauderdale. I don't throw out the Hall of Fame tote board to say that after locks Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice the guys at the top of the list will definitely get in; the odds are simply my gut feeling from years of being in the Hall of Fame voting room as one of the 44 selectors. But my jaw usually drops the same as yours when some of the votes are made public with the announcement of the new class each year. (We vote by secret ballot, so we don't know who's in until the class is announced by the Hall the afternoon of our vote. This year, the class will be disclosed at 5 p.m. Saturday.) Odds Candidate Comment 1-5 Emmitt Smith, Jerry Rice Discussion on each will take five seconds. 15-1 Roger Craig First ever to get 1,000 rush yards and receiving yards in same year.

I think the trouble Roger C is having getting into the Hall will be echoed in a couple of years when Bryant Young becomes eligible.

Are you talking about the #'s argument Cervant?
