HOF selectors spent 50 mins debating Bob Hayes

[WoodysGirl]

snipped from FWST article

The 44 selectors needed 50 minutes to discuss Hayes’ candidacy, longer than any of the 17 finalists, including former commissioner Paul Tagliabue, who did not make the cut to 10. In the end, they didn’t hold his pedestrian postseason stats — 27 catches, 425 yards and three touchdowns in 15 games — or his legal problems against him. The Hall’s voting bylaws preclude consideration of non-football issues.

I have no doubt it was Peter King holding things up.

Now now, he isn't all bad. After all, he's in favor of cutting TO.

If he was the hold up we need to do something permanent about him.
