I was on the exercise bike watching PFT with Mike Florio and Chris Simms. They were talking about Deion Sanders' idea about creating a place within the HOF for the super elite players. They both like his idea. As Neon Deion said, players casually talk about the players they think were the uber stars who really dominated their position or changed the game in some way. He kind of joked about players going "that guy's in the same HOF as LT?" Prime Time in an interview went on to say that players should decide who gets in the "special wing", as they are the ones who know who those players really are.
Florio and Simms went on to say that perhaps one player should get voted in a year, and that eligibility should comprise roughly the Super Bowl era, with some obvious exceptions. A few players they mentioned would make it would be...
--Jim Brown
--Tom Brady
--Peyton Manning
--Deion Sanders
--Troy Polamalu
--Lawrence Taylor
There might have been a couple more, but I don't remember.
Regardless of whether or not you like the idea, what other player might you add? These are just the super ubers. I would add a few...
--Dick Butkus
--Walter Payton
--Joe Montana
--Jerry Rice
--Reggie White
I'll stop there. Others?
