Professional Football Researchers Association Forum

I just got my ballot in yesterday - I'm usually much earlier. When I asked Andy, he said voter turnout was typical, but it couldn't hurt to start a thread.

Feel free to use this thread to discuss your ballot and don't forget to vote.

Hopefully "typical" doesn't mean "not very good". . The HOVG is one of the things that first drew me to the PFRA. Here we have the opportunity to "enshrine" guys who weren't necessarily great but were, well, very good. The average football fan who happens to get interested in the history of the game may stumble upon our website and our Hall of very good, and find out about great players from the past that they otherwise would never have heard of if their only exposure to the history of the NFL is the pro football Hall of Fame. ( Nothing against the PFHOF.). Get your votes in!

Typical was my paraphrasing - maybe that sounds negative. Andy said "Turnout is about average.".

Same here - part of why I joined is to get to vote!

Anybody able to post a list of who's on the ballot? Or is this the preliminary nominations?

Ballot:
Lyle Alzado
Dick Anderson
Houston Antwine

Voting is a privilege but it is also an honor to nominate a player for our Hall.
Which is my way of sneaking in a "please seriously consider Earl Morrall when you vote."

Is there an email option?

I emailed mine. The instructions aren't in the last issue of CC, but I'm pretty sure they are in the one before that or you can PM me.
