    The Favre discussion is an embarrassment.

    The rumors are that Tony Dungy got in, which is disappointing on a couple levels

    Owens didn't get in and the source is him.

    What a disgrace

    I went four for five on what I thought they would do. I had a coach for my fifth but figured it would be Coryell

    Nice of them to wait until Stabler couldn't enjoy it, I guess?

    The top two names for 2017 are Tomlinson and Jason Taylor, so it will be another cleanup year if you view Tomlinson as a lock. I would assume Owens goes then, with Lynch

    The Selection Committee then presented and reviewed the 15 Modern-Era Finalists that included two cut downs in the process. The first cut of finalists was from 15 to 10. The five eliminated from consideration at that point were Morten Andersen, Steve Atwater, Alan Faneca, Edgerrin James and Terrell Owens.

    After one last round of discussion, the final 10 finalists were reduced to five. Removed at that point were Don Coryell, Terrell Davis, Joe Jacoby, John Lynch and Kurt Warner.

    T.O. wasn't even final 10.
