The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next twenty-five of the 2024 Football List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 226 to 250:

226. Carl Banks
227. Duane Putnam
228. Bob Gain
229. Dan Towler
230. Fuzzy Thurston
231. Derrick Mason
232. Kyle Rote
233. Lyle Alzado
234. Matt Forte
235. Earl Faison

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.

One of the most well-known defensive players of his day, Lyle Alzado was more recognized with the Oakland Raiders but his best years and most extended years were with the Denver Broncos.  With Denver, Alzado would be a First Team All-Pro in 1977, and he was a Pro Bowl Selection that year and the one after.  The Defensive End would notably lead the NFL in Fumble Recoveries in 1972.

In terms of notoriety, there are few on the defensive side of the ball that can match Lyle Alzado.  Known for his anger and ferocious play on the gridiron, Alzado debuted in 1971 with the Denver Broncos and in the season after he would lead all players in Fumble Recoveries.  Alzado played predominantly at Defensive End, and after missing most of the 1976 season due to blowing out his knee, he would come back and help the Broncos and the mighty Broncos' defense reach their first Super Bowl.  A contract dispute saw him traded to the Cleveland Browns, and he would later be traded to the Los Angeles Raiders where his popularity rose, and he would help them win Super Bowl XVIII.
