Hall of Famer? T.O. or Keyshawn?

Anyone notice Keyshawn hating on T.O. lately? Ok if you had a vote on the NFL's Hall of Fame committee who would you give your vote to and why?

Meshaun vs TO

I think IF anyone of these guys go its gonna be Meshaun because of the SB ring. Yeah, TO's #s are better but to get into the HOF you need the TOTAL package. TO is NOT the total package especially w/o the ring. HOF is a special fraternity with special players. TO is special but just not in that sort of way. look at the list. (even swann almost didn't make it). TO, if he gets a ring he will go, but he won't be a first/second ballet HOFer.

Lance Alworth 1962-1972
Raymond Berry 1955-1967
Fred Biletnikoff 1965-1978
Tom Fears 1948-1956
Elroy (Crazylegs) Hirsch (also HB) 1946-1956
Michael Irvin 1988-1999
Charlie Joiner 1969-1986
Steve Largent 1976-1989
Dante Lavelli 1946-1956 James Lofton 1978-1993
Don Maynard 1958, 1960-1973
Tommy McDonald 1957-1968
Bobby Mitchell (also HB) 1958-1968
Pete Pihos 1947-1955
John Stallworth 1974-1987
Lynn Swann 1974-1982
Charley Taylor (also HB) 1964-1975, 1977
Paul Warfield 1964-1977

Meshaun - 1 vote
TO - 0

I can't believe you said MeShaun was the totally package!!! Slow, don't break on routes, not a good route runner! come on man! T.O. is not Marvin Harrison but he is way better than KeyShaun.....he will get in before Meshaun!

Im with Nobles. Keyshawn was alright at one time, but TO has been nice his whole career. They came in the same year and TO has accomplished more and he has several more good years ahead of him. People don't like TO because he talks a lot of trash, but so did Keyshawn. A super bowl ring doesn't make Keyshawn better than TO by any means and it is not a requirement to enter the HOF. Keyshawn sure as hell wasnt the reason that the Bucs won the SB. He had 69 yards and 0 TDs that game.

nobles,
I never said that Key was the "total package". Key not a route runner. Thats what made key so good was his hands and his route running. We all know he didn't have the speed. You would not be saying all this about TO if he wasn't a cowboy. 2 years ago you couldn't stand his a$$.

Mike,
TO hasn't accomplished MORE. Because the one thing that separates them is my whole argument. The SB ring!!! Wants TO gets one he will go in before Key. Okay, so Keyshaun didnt' have a great game in the SB. lets not even consider based on that one game. that's not how the system works. It is how successful your career was. Key reached the highest point of success in any pro players career. The SUPERBOWL. TO has been a great receiver and that is all he is known for. Bad attitude, not a team player, and most teams choose to avoid him. Again why should he be a HOFer?

TO's mouth will keep him from getting in.

Okay let me clear this up.
1. the question isn't asking are either of these guys going to the hof. It is saying that if only one of them could go, who would it be. TOs mouth sure as hell wouldn't be the deciding factor, because Keyshawn was just as bad.

2. F*ck the SB ring. Lets look at the numbers:

TO Key
Receptions 877 814
Recieving yds 13,022 10,571
TDs 128 64

so... over 2500 more yards and 2x as many touchdowns in the same amount of time. if thats not enough, lets look at a recent HOFer's stats

Michael Irving... 750 Receptions, 11,904 yards, and 65 TDs. He played 12 seasons just like TO and Keyshawn. And he talked sh*t and did drugs.

I think thats enough said, Keyshawn isn't even close, and 1 sb ring during his average career isn't going to put him in the hall of fame.

F*cK the SB ring!!!! F*ck the one thing that makes you WORLD CHAMPION! No lets not look at the most important prize in football. You make alot of since. Irvin has 3 RINGS!!! Bad person to use. Let me ask you a question. Who's a better quarterback Brady or Manning? Or should I say who should make the HOF first? I'm done with this.....

Marv said...

By todays standards the ring matters. Irvin is there because of 3 rings yes he talked sh*t and did drugs, but he had three rings to back it up! TO doesn't have a ring to back his sh*t up! His mouth will keep him off everyone's ballot until he can win one, because as you proved Mike, stats don't matter.
