HOF - how do we tell difference between players and coaches?
Posted: Wed Apr 05, 2017 12:35 pm
I want to count HOFers by decade (not sure how yet - something like the decade they played most of their career in would probably be more accurate than something like taking the 1st year of their career which would be easier) and it reminded me that sometimes I'm not sure whether to count certain HOF members as players or coaches. For my purpose, I just wanted players but in cases like George Halas and Guy Chamberlain (just 2 of several cases) - should they be included in the player list? I checked this link and it was some help, but didn't definitively answer the question. I have been told on another board that Halas wasn't a HOF player, I'm just not convinced the HOF agrees. Thanks for any help.
