1975 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS:
Thank you for all of your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project. If you are unaware of what that is, we acted like the PFHOF had its first class in January 1946.
We have completed the years up to 1974.
For “1975,” a Preliminary Vote with nearly 100 players whose playing career ended by 1969. We are also following the structure in that players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool.
Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the preliminary list, and the top 25 vote-getters were named Semi-Finalists.
A week later, the voters were asked to pick 15 names from the 25 Semi-Finalists, and next week, they will pick five from the remaining 15. We will continue this process weekly until we catch up to the current year.
31 Votes took place, with the top fifteen advancing.
This is for the “Modern Era”

We will post the Class of the 1975 Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project next Saturday.
Thank you to all who contributed. If you want to be part of this project, please let us know!
Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 St. Louis Cardinals.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.
Last year, the Cardinals won 83 Games, but did not make the playoffs. The rebuilding squad saw minimal movement in the top 50, and the only new entrant was based on the new algorithm.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes
1. Stan Musial
2. Albert Pujols
3. Rogers Hornsby
4. Bob Gibson
5. Ozzie Smith
You can find the entire list here.
The only new addition was Ripper Collins, who as discussed above, enters via the new system.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
A Cardinal for the entirety of his playing career, Terry Moore was a n excellent defensive Outfielder, who likely would have been a multi-time Gold Glove winner, had that been an accolade at the time.
Moore, who was named to four straight All-Stars (1939-42), was also a decent hitter with a lifetime Batting Average of .280 with 1,318 career Hits. He also helped the Cards win the World Series in 1942 and 1946.
