Amigo, did you really mean to say Patience? Lynn Swann got in years ago. Pearson's talent was equal to Swann's in many respects. Both played against one another in the 70's! I'd say Patience is way misused here. If your comment is under Pearson, you probably meant Pearson.
Nope, was referring to the cry baby fans who would whine and cry that he wasn’t in, get over it. He’s in now so the tears can stop, congrats to Pearson!

I wasn’t referring to Pearson, I was referring to the some of the fans who never stopped crying. I wish I had a pacifier to shove in their mouths. Patience!
I know my guy was agreeing

It's not whining.

Every member of the 70's all decade team is in the HOF minus Pearson and the special teams players. That is not right. Pearson should have gone in before Stallworth.
Define “right”, the HOF is subjective. How is John Lynch not in the HOF or our own Chuck Howley who has more Pro Bowls and more All Pro selections than Pearson?

Funny that I never hear Howley’s name mentioned but I guess that’s because he’s not the loud mouth Pearson is (no disrespect to Pearson).

Point being is there are legitimate snubs all over the place, whining and complaining about it is pointless. Hopefully at some point the committee wakes up and those guys will eventually get in, even if it’s late.

There's nothing to be subjective about.

Pearson was either the #1 or #2 WR of the decade. Period.

The players that were 2nd team all decade Winfield and Carmichael were both voted ahead of Pearson and the aforementioned Stallworth who didn't make the team. That's what's not right. If you don't see it, ok.
