Professional Football Researchers Association Forum

So much for "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Looks like the PFHoF plans to include HoF members as part of the selection process in some way, details to be announced.

I think this is a really lousy idea in any sense, since all I've ever seen when Hall members speak on the subject is to shill for former teammates. I think the regular selection process has worked really well the past several years with a few exceptions.

The Senior process is what needs serious tweaking, not this.

Figures.

Much like the Veterans Committee in MLB, which elected a slew of questionable St. Louis Cardinals in the 1970's on the word of Frank Frisch.
