For all the good in the world it does for these guys to be semifinalists. I'd wager Branch, Hayes, and Guy don't even pay the shit any attention anymore.

I think Branch might be getting closer. I think it was King pumping him a couple of months ago, which was a change of tune. Guy's got no chance now. It's ridiculous Hayes isn't there.

It's just plain ridiculous.No reason all 3 shouldn't be in.I won't hold my breath.But I will cross my fingers.

With Rice a lock and Carter basically a lock, I figure it's safe to say that Timmah won't get in based simply on the position he played...which is ass raped retarded. Obviously, that will also shut Branch out.

I think receivers from the 70s are looked at differently, as they should be given the different passing rules. I'm not saying Branch will get in, he very likely won't, but I don't think Carter or Timmah would hold him up.

I don't think Branch qualifies as a senior nominee yet, so this won't be his year. He'll get screwed same as Timmah.

Surely Shannon Sharpe's monkey ass will make it this year. Pretty puzzling that neither he nor Chris Carter were first ballot guys.
