Totally agree. I think with football, the competition is so fierce...but it's such a strong fraternity because so few men know what it's like to put on the equipment and put your bodies on the line (literally). So at the end of the day, it's nothing but mutual respect among those who get into Canton
This is my favorite part of the weekend of the Super Bowl, I believe. It gives me chills every year. Love seeing Gil Brandt get this acknowledgment. Hearing him on SiriusXM NFL radio, what he's done for the league is amazing. Then seeing all those Hall Of Fame members coming up there to welcome those guys is great.
I think my favorite part of the whole ceremony is the older hall of famers going up on stage to greet and give congrats to all the new members. It's a small and special fraternity
Congrats to Kevin Mawae...you finally made it. Center is such an important but underrated position on a team. You were the anchor of my Jets O Line for many seasons. Now you're heading for Canton!!
The Ravens home away from home is the Hall Of Fame now! We got J.O., Sugar, Quick, next we're going to have Ozzie(the GM version), Yanda, and Sizzle in there. For a franchise that's only been around 23-24 years, I'd say we're doing dam good!
*Tom Flores!!* Again snubbed! Was on Super Bowl winning team as player, as assistant coach,and Won 2 Super Bowls as Head Coach, first team as Wild Card.
Flores won his 2 SB's with mostly Madden's teams. Madden built the Raiders into one of the greatest teams of the 70's and Flores took over and just didnt mess with the team. He'll get in one day but the HOF is more about icon status than anything else and Madden was also a broadcasting legend. Also Plunkett wasn't that good his teams around him were, just like Joe Namath but Namath was more famouse because of his lifestyle
Nothing better than to attend the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony weekend ! If football is your favorite game, Canton is the place to be !! And shopping for pins and Class tee shirts is a blast.
When I tell people in a Chiefs fan they always think it's because of Mahomes. I tell them I love Mahomes, but I'm a Chiefs fan because of watching Tony Gonzalez. By all appearances he's as good of a person as he was a player.
Thank you Pat for two things. Number one, the three Super Bowls and number two doing everything with class. Champ Bailey you are simply awesome. If there is one thing I could change about your career it would be you would have a Super Bowl ring. God bless!
Ed Reed, Champ Bailey, and Tyler Law, Tony Gonzalez ,,,,, Shannon came right on up and showed Champ some Denver Broncos love first hand. Damn I miss those guy's
It’s a given next year Polamalu gets in. 2x SB champ. 6x All Pro. 8x Pro Bowl. All Decades team. Him and Ed Reed go in, the two best safeties I witnessed growing up. Damn shame Sean Taylor left so soon.
I live in Canton, OH., (Browns/ Steelers country!, Ha!) down the road from the Pro football Hall of Fame entrance, ( 1/2 mile), and I fricking love it! BIG PLANS FOR THIS LEGENDARY SHRINE! If you're coming for the game or concert please don't mind the construction! It's starting to get fricken insane here already with all the many NFL fans and commotion, LOL! Go Baker Mayfield and the Browns(Earn your place bro!). But, helmets off to those legends inducted this year 2019!
It's been way overdue for Tony Gonzalez. He's been a legendary tight end forever just like Larry Fitzgerald has been at wide receiver. Fitz will be so celebrated when he finally retires. Lol
Gil Brant How Bout them Cowboys another contributer that help build Americas Team and help changed the way teams scout and draft congrats to the other nominees I watched y'all for years as a Football fan
Eric Flores yes the hell he is I always believed Troy had a little more talent then Ed reed it’s just that reed played with a better defense which made him seem better
Tony Boselli was literally the best Left Tackle of All Time. If you don’t believe me then go look him up. First player ever to be drafted in the first round. Jaguars and Texans. Injuries cut his career short but he was a the GOAT at LT.
ED Reed- Greatest FS to EVER PLAY!!!!!
Not bad for a 2 star player coming out of HS
u mean safety that included strong safety as well
RG3 #smokinthat3 #10hunnit #H3!5M4N #dawgpound The greatest strong safety is Ronnie Lott
@@makk09mao fun fact ed reed won DPOTY as a strong safety
C wood
Brian Dawkins is better tbh!
Seeing Shannon smile and applaud Tony G is a beautiful sight. Great rivalry.
And still going at it.... Lol....

"I'm Tony Gonzalez, University of California?"
matthew forbes You Stay Classy San Diego
matthew forbes lol he is in madden 19 ultimate team as an unlockable
GO BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“I’m Tony Gonzalez ,University of California OK!?
Hahahahaha i know exactly what intro you talking about
Ty Law deserves this! Congratulations!!!
PAT BOWLEN!!?!??!?! YEAHHHHHH WHOOOOOO!!!!!! IM CRYING RIGHT NOW!!!!! FINALLY
😂😂
YESSSIRR💪🏽
TY LAW!!!👏🏽
Calk27
Ty would mug yo damn receivers, and Terry Holt and Issac Bruce.
They changed the rules because of Ty Law! He was such a bad ass.
The best shutdown corner in patriots history.
Glad ty made it! 🤙🏻
Peyton Manning killer!
Finally my man Ty Law! So close the last few years but finally got it and rightfully so, shut down so man other hall of fame receivers in his career
Facts only man to get into peyton manning's head he always intercept peyton
@@michaeledwards1552 he would always get Payton while covering Harrison, HOF QB and receiver
Everyone cheering for Tony Gonzalez when his picture came up, man, what a HOF class. That being said, Atwater/Butler needs to get in the HOF.
Jimmy Her
Darren Woodson
Issac Bruce
Jimmy Her Thats because they’re in Atlanta, which is where he played, its like if they were in baltimore they wouldve done that with ed reed instead.
Jeremiah Henderson he’ll be remembered in KC
Atwater in now
3:53 Get yourself a woman that looks at you the way Shannon Sharpe looks at Tony Gonzalez 😂😂
what????🤣🤣🤣
WTF 😂
Ray Lewis and Ed Reed in the HOF together? About damn time. Their legacy is now immortalized
I grew up watching most of these players like 80% of them I feel kind of old now they're getting into the Hall of Fame ....
Same here
This is my favorite part of the weekend of the Super Bowl, I believe. It gives me chills every year. Love seeing Gil Brandt get this acknowledgment. Hearing him on SiriusXM NFL radio, what he's done for the league is amazing. Then seeing all those Hall Of Fame members coming up there to welcome those guys is great.
Champ Bailey is THE shutdown corner, and I'm so happy both he and Mr. B. got in the the HOF!
@Some Person Manning will be eligible in 2021 and Ware in 2022.
@Some Person No because he played in the 2016 season, the season after we won the Super Bowl. He retired in 2017.
@Some Person It's cool I'm a die hard Avs and Broncos fan, but I still want the Patriots to lose.
@Some Person Troy Polomalu and Reggie Wayne (I think) come up for 2020.
Preach!
CHAMP BAILEY!!!!!! WHOOOO LETS GOOOOO BABY BRONCO SQUAD!?!? WHERE YA AT!?!?
Redskins fam but Im feeling you rn
Broncos Stampede damn brotha hopefully Steve gets in next season. This one for Pat.
@@richardharper4637 don't remember him ever being a saint but he played for Denver for like 9 years or something
@@richardharper4637 he never actually step on the field with the saints 😂
@@richardharper4637 saints?
Kevin mawae has finally made at last, it's about time.
I think my favorite part of the whole ceremony is the older hall of famers going up on stage to greet and give congrats to all the new members. It's a small and special fraternity
Can't believe Tom Flores didn't get in. NFL needs to fix this. Many worthy HOF's have been waiting 10 or more yrs to get in.
ray guy waited forever too
Hof's a joke
Steve Atwater too
Cliff Branch aswell tho the HoF is shady
Raiders go in when they die.
Steve Atwater and Isaac Bruce got snubbed once again
Yeah. Steve got robbed again man!!
They’re in next year with Polamalu being the only 1st ballot.
Is Atwater ever going to get in he been waiting a long time.
george stotlenberg tony g was still better
Nah Tom flores
I used to watch games just because of Ed Reed, that man was a human highlight reel, well deserved!
Congrats to Kevin Mawae...you finally made it. Center is such an important but underrated position on a team. You were the anchor of my Jets O Line for many seasons. Now you're heading for Canton!!
Reed! Go Ravens!
The Ravens home away from home is the Hall Of Fame now! We got J.O., Sugar, Quick, next we're going to have Ozzie(the GM version), Yanda, and Sizzle in there. For a franchise that's only been around 23-24 years, I'd say we're doing dam good!
Ed reed is such a vibe man
Ed Reed is the best damn safety to ever play the game....no debate needed
*Tom Flores!!* Again snubbed! Was on Super Bowl winning team as player, as assistant coach,and Won 2 Super Bowls as Head Coach, first team as Wild Card.
Its an injustice bro.
Damn shame they gonna wait until he’s gone then put him in just like Stabler
I agree, and I hate the Raiders. Flores, Plunkett, Stabler for HOF.
OCSJC :. Plunkett had about 30 more interceptions than TD passes. The voters must be holding that against him.
Flores won his 2 SB's with mostly Madden's teams. Madden built the Raiders into one of the greatest teams of the 70's and Flores took over and just didnt mess with the team. He'll get in one day but the HOF is more about icon status than anything else and Madden was also a broadcasting legend. Also Plunkett wasn't that good his teams around him were, just like Joe Namath but Namath was more famouse because of his lifestyle
Never get tired of watching intros like these
GOOD CLASS!!
Of course Jason Garrett was clapping
Braeden Putty
ikr
I'm suprised Sharpe was by Jones on stage
Footballwife
jus my pun on all of the hating Sharpe does
He wasnt clapping at the pro bowl tho 😂
Braeden Putty that isn’t right but funny
The whole time from what i heard
love this class
This class is bullshit without Tony Boeslli
Its bs without Boeslli
Perhaps the best HOF class ever.
I know when I’m getting old when players I watched every Sunday growing up, is now going into the Hall of fame well deserved
Its crazy watching these guys growing up now retiring and becoming legends forever
Congratulations
So emotional
Soooooooooooooooooooooooo happy Ty Law got in
Ed Reed, what a nightmare to play against that guy...
Am I the only one who got teary eyed?
Ty Law was one of my favorite players ever.
Nothing better than to attend the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony weekend ! If football is your favorite game, Canton is the place to be !! And shopping for pins and Class tee shirts is a blast.
Looked on the stage at the end and all I saw was a herd of GOATs
When I tell people in a Chiefs fan they always think it's because of Mahomes. I tell them I love Mahomes, but I'm a Chiefs fan because of watching Tony Gonzalez. By all appearances he's as good of a person as he was a player.
This music hits just right
Thank you Pat for two things. Number one, the three Super Bowls and number two doing everything with class. Champ Bailey you are simply awesome. If there is one thing I could change about your career it would be you would have a Super Bowl ring. God bless!
Good Class. 100th Season. This hopefully will be a Special Season
Ed Reed, Champ Bailey, and Tyler Law, Tony Gonzalez ,,,,, Shannon came right on up and showed Champ some Denver Broncos love first hand. Damn I miss those guy's
Peyton Manning’s greatest receiver, Ty Law!
You are right!!!
EJ Rawk tony g is still better
Ty law and Ricky Manning playoffs runs was the reason for the rule change 🤣🤣🤣🤣
EJ Rawk LOL😂😂
I think he was the architect for new England stopping manning other than Brady and belicheck
Beautiful
TONY G! 🐐
From this day on they are now immortal in the NFL World
It’s a given next year Polamalu gets in. 2x SB champ. 6x All Pro. 8x Pro Bowl. All Decades team. Him and Ed Reed go in, the two best safeties I witnessed growing up. Damn shame Sean Taylor left so soon.
TONY! TONY! TONY!
Also, Way to go Johnny
Always Beautiful to see!
It's Like Walking Among Mount Olympus of Pro Football, on that Stage!!! So Tough to get in, so You KNOW YOU ARE THE ELITE!
Tom Flores Got Snubbed. Still Love Seeing all these men inducted to the Hall, Outstanding Careers Men. Thank You All For your Entertainment 🙏🏽
Might be the best class ever!!!
Two of my favorite defensive players are now Officially in HoF. Reed and Lewis🙏🏼🙏🏼
This was a fantastic hall of fame class
3:54 look at how happy Shannon Sharpe is for his buddy Tony.
Ed Reed best ever you and Ray but the Ravens on the map...and made Baltimore proud.....
I live in Canton, OH., (Browns/ Steelers country!, Ha!) down the road from the Pro football Hall of Fame entrance, ( 1/2 mile), and I fricking love it! BIG PLANS FOR THIS LEGENDARY SHRINE! If you're coming for the game or concert please don't mind the construction! It's starting to get fricken insane here already with all the many NFL fans and commotion, LOL! Go Baker Mayfield and the Browns(Earn your place bro!). But, helmets off to those legends inducted this year 2019!
Great to see Johnny Robinson finally getting the honor.
Man I wish Tony G. would have gotten a ring.
He Have A HOF Ring and Gold Jacket and Statue Plaque
Congratulations to all who enter the HOF!
I'm proud to say I share a birthday with the legend Ty Law
You hear those falcons fans! Atlanta loves Tony G
One of the best hall of fame classes in recent time
It's been way overdue for Tony Gonzalez. He's been a legendary tight end forever just like Larry Fitzgerald has been at wide receiver. Fitz will be so celebrated when he finally retires. Lol
Good day for us Chiefs. Mahomes and Gonzalez
Still waiting that they finally take Sean Taylor into the H.O.F.
Germanfootballer T not that he doesn't deserve it but I don't think he played long enough
@@vxslayer5468 Not like that was his fault tho
How long will nfl disrespect Tom Flores? Damn. This man won ring as a player and 2 times as head coach. I don’t get it
Jimmy johnson def a hall of famer
Happy for my UGA guy Champ Bailey as well as Tony Gonzalez, who had an impressive run with the Atlanta Falcons!!!😀
ed reed & tony gonzalez both deserved hof of hall of famers
Ed Reed we love u
They all deserve it
Loved Ed Reed's great dance
Why am I tearing up?
THE BEST ENSHRIMENT TO DATE
Wow!!Class of DBs..May be it's WRs' class next year.
great class
Hell yeah Tony got in!!!
Ed Reeeedd, champpp Bailey is a champ, This was a great class.
It sucks Tony never won a ring. I really do hope that Gates gets the chance before he retires.
Some hard hitting men in that class
Nice to see older guys getting in. They've waited many years.
Absolutely!!!
ATWATER SNUBBED AGAIN!! GET HIM IN NEXT YEAR, NO EXCUSES!
Flores getting snubbed hurts
Stop crying.
Tony Boeslli is the greatest LT OF ALL TIME. And he Not in either.
Quit bitching.
Exactly! Best safety ever NOT in the hall.
Andre Reed hadda wait & wait & wait .. they botch it up every yr
Roger Craig isn't in the HOF too.
Best Saftey to ever play and the best tight end to ever play both in the same class!
Ed Reed baby!!!! Hell yeah..
Love it.
Gil Brant How Bout them Cowboys another contributer that help build Americas Team and help changed the way teams scout and draft congrats to the other nominees I watched y'all for years as a Football fan
Amazing! I felt chills and had goosebumps watching this. Congratulations to all the inductees! But a big shout out to Champ Bailey! #HTTR
One thing they did right this year was the Hall of Fame inductees. Awesome lineup
don’t play with demons, THEN? Bye bye
“I TONY GONNZALEZ! UNIVERSITY OF CAL-FORNIA OKAY?! ” Tony Gonzalez Montana lmao
Hell of a defensive class
So Troy Polamalu next year right?
TCraig00 should be. Eligible next year so I don't see why not
Yeah not first ballot though
Nah he will be snubbed like a bunch of Steelers lol
The HOF really loves doing that
Eric Flores yes the hell he is I always believed Troy had a little more talent then Ed reed it’s just that reed played with a better defense which made him seem better
Yes and troys only 38 so he's gonna be the youngest hall of famer ever
Rodney Harrison deserves to be in the HOF !
How about some oldies like Mike Curtis, Roman Gabriel, Tommy Nobis, Rich "Tombstone" Jackson, and Bubba Smith?
Ed reed...champ Bailey and ty law would be a defensive secondary that would make most QB have nightmares forever
Awesome class this year👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love it straight DBU on the stage!! Ed Reed' Champ Bailey ' and Ty law my favorite safety and Cornerbacks
Ty law and champ bailey in the say yeat that's iconic
Tony Boselli was literally the best Left Tackle of All Time.
If you don’t believe me then go look him up. First player ever to be drafted in the first round. Jaguars and Texans.
Injuries cut his career short but he was a the GOAT at LT.
