You ain't a fan if you think you're a real fan cuz you don't have a sense of humor.

Nothing says stuck up stiff neck more than telling others how to be a fan.

Hope to see you in Canton soon 70

Unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to make first ballot if you play interior offensive line. There's only been 3 in the last 35 years and all 3 have are top 100 players to ever play the game with 2 of them having played tackle as well.

Recently Guard Alan Faneca who has almost identical accolades to Martin, plays for a franchise that Canton is favorable to voting wise (Steelers), plus has a Superbowl got in like 5th ballot.

Of the main position interior line (both offense and defense) along with safety are all 3 brutal to get in.

Don't bother trying to explain yourself to delusional fans. Martin was great no doubt, but I just don't think he makes it to Canton to be honest.
 
One of the greatest offensive linemen in the history of the NFL but sadly he could not get to a Superbowl. Just another wasted talent in the last 30 years.
 
He'll always be remembered as one of the Cowboys' greatest offensive linemen. :)

I think he picked the right time to make that decision. He knows better than anyone!

I agree. History is not kind to interior OL when it comes to Canton.
Yanda didn't get in, and like Martin has 7 All Pro awards, and was considered a top 3 guard for his time. All Decade 2010 player too.

I think Yanda and Martin will get in at some point, but it was interesting that the HOF went short of max allowed this class.
If there was any one worthy of the 5th spot for 1st time, it was Yanda.
 
Wishing him the best in his post-football life. Congratulations on a great career, 70. Canton and the Ring of Honor await.

Don't see me complaining about posts I don't agree with.

Enjoy your Friday!
