It makes your head spin doesn’t it?

We aren’t going to go through his entire career as chances are all of you are very familiar with his vast accomplishments, so we will say this:

Peyton Manning is a first ballot Hall of Famer, and will debut at #1 on our Notinhalloffame.com football list when he is eligible for the Hall of Fame, which by the way will be 2021.

Thank you Peyton, as we loved watching one of the best of all time. 





We here at Notinhalloffame.com thought it would be fun to take a look at the major awards in North American team sports and see how it translates into Hall of Fame potential.

Needless to say, different awards in different sports yield hall of fame potential.  In basketball, the team sport with the least amount of players on a roster, the dividend for greatness much higher.  In baseball, it is not as much as a great individual season does not have the same impact.
