I'm on the other side of this completely. I don't like TO, but he was the dominant receiver in the league for a very long time. He was the cream of the crop and his numbers, performance, and longevity clearly warrant induction.

There were a handful of unelected, unqualified journalists who, despite HOF performance and numbers kept him out because he was a "distraction." They unilaterally create arbitrary requirements beyond performance for entry.

My opinion is F those guys.

Joe Jacoby is a prime example of the HOF voters ignorance and arrogance. They are uniquely unqualified to determine if Jacoby should be in the HOF because they don't have the skill set to judge line play but would never in a million years concede as much.

Literally, the most dominant pass rushers of Jacoby's era, who are in the HOF, were lobbying for him because he was their superior in the game. This made no difference to this arrogant self-rightous lot.

F them.

One of the voters responded to TO's no show by saying he wouldn't have voted him in if he knew he wouldn't appear.

Excuse me, but TO's appearance at the enshrinement ceremony has nothing to do with him being a HOF player but it demonstrates, at it's essence, just how self-important these fat out of shape, self-aggrandizing, cliquish, fan boys are.

I'm glad TO didn't cow tow to them, his performance got him, unlike some players who lobby and kiss A. He doesn't owe them anything.
