He only played for 6-7 years & has 8,000+ Receiving yards. 65 TDS. Almost 600 catches. That's crazy!!!!. Plus 4 pro bowls an 3 All Pro's. Put him in!!!
I don't think some people realize how good Sterling Sharpe was for a little while there during the 90's. You can even argue that he was the top receiver in the league for a about 3 to 4 year period, maybe even ahead of Jerry Rice. Look at the numbers, and he had that one monster season with Don Majkowski at the helm. Sterling's best attribute was his strength. This guy would break tackles as if he were a 230 pound running back. He should be in the HOF one day.
You are not the first to say that Sterling Sharpe should be in the Hall of Fame. Look at the his numbers during his career. Sterling had a short 8 year career. if it wasn't for a career ending neck injury, Sterling Sharpe would be right there in terms of receivers like Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin, Cris Carter, and others. He would have been all time great.
I've been a die-hard 49ers fan for 25 years and I remember back then thinking if anyone is up there with Rice, it's Sterling. He dominated pretty much the same he just played nowhere near as long.
erick m up until his unfortunate injury, he was the best receiver in the NFL, Jerry Rice and Andre Rison included. Back then, for much more of his career, sterling didn't play with a good receiver opposite him to take away the double coverage, and he didn't play with a good Quarterback (even back then, Favre was irratic and nowhere near the QB we grew to admire and respect as a legend).
Basil Carpenter jr he would've been better than randy moss and T.O? Well obviously it doesn't matter what could've happened, it matters what actually happened, and what happened was he only played 7 years, he was good for 7 years but don't shame moss Like that
He should get the Gale Sayers treatment. And it's not like the Bears were world beaters in the time he was there. They never even made the playoffs. Put Terrell Davis in too imo...
People hate Shannon? How is that even possible. I don't even like American football and still can't get enough of hearing him talk about it and anything else.
That's his role on the show, sometimes he sounds like a b*tch but we know Shannon is good person deep inside. Love it when they're yelling at each other to emphasize their point but that's part of the show, we know how TV show works. That thing about his brother and grandmother is priceless.
STERLING STARTED 112 games, had 8,134 reciving yard and caught 65 TOUCHDOWNS ( which is more than Shannon's 55 Denver and 7 Baltimore thouchdowns put together) C'Mon SKIP PUT HIM IN THE HALL!!!!!!!!
Hearing that all his Grandma wanted from her millionaire grandson was "a decent home - a home that won't be wet at all inside after a big rain storm" is truly humbling! So many things in my life I take for granted, so easy to not be thankful for all the wonderful things we've been blessed with. What a powerful, moving speech.
Still kills me about what happened to Sterling. Dude held the "Triple Crown" one year with Brett Favre, had 18 receiving TDs in one year, second only to Rice, and much more. He was a Pro Bowler 5 times in 6 years, and if it wasn't for that goddamn neck injury, he would definitely be a Super Bowl champion, probably multiple times. He 100% should be in the HOF; fate just dealt him the worst hand imaginable at the worst time imaginable. Really terrible story
He played 7 years. I know what you are saying. I feel the same way about a couple lions players. Herman Moore was never the same after he hurt his knee really bad at the end of 1998. He was doing what Sterling had been doing without the HOF QB. He had Scott Mitchell throwing up prayers to him & he could just out jump everyone. Same with Billy Simms who I believe would have been a HOF RB if not for the knee injury in 1984 that ended his career in game 8 of that year.
Shannon is a fantastic communicator, he knows how to connect with people, and he has a genuine and good heart. He is wasted as a talking head on undisputed, he should be in Politics changing lives.
I don't believe in telling someone what they should and shouldn't do. Because of the way Shannon's life unfolded, he gained immeasurable experience in football and on undisputed he is talking about the sports he loves and sharing that knowledge.
@@patrykkuffel2679 Yup. But I understand the OP's point. However, yes...Politics is not an automatic route for someone of his stature. Matter of fact, Shannon is too pure of heart for politics. Politics is a dirty game. Very few and I mean, VERY FEW people can do that and still be good at heart or at least be just/true to the laws of the land. Shay Shay is doing what he's supposed to do.
Never said he wasn't great before Favre. But he WAS at his best with Favre. you can say that about almost any receiver who played with Favre. So are you a Bears or Vikings fan? Or just ignorant? Maybe all 3?
This might be the best hof speech ever. ShAnnon sharpe showed humility and praised his brother and grandmother for his success. Great speech Shannon. Straight from the heart 👊👊
I have such a profound appreciation for Shannon Sharpe , he has put in the WORK both on and off the field… He should be viewed as a champion and the GOLD LEAF standard by which all young men (especially young black men) aspire …
Yup. If anyone needs a motivational speech ,male or female. Black. White or whatever. Send them this speech. Shannon sharp showed high integrity in this speech. Much respect .
I’m not even very interested in football but I’ll be damned if I wasn’t moved by his Shannon’s speech. Guy has amazing presence and seems like a great human being. I want to see MORE from this guy. He should consider becoming a public speaker.
One of the best NFL players. Him and his brother. Both are 🌟 in my eyes. Probably in his parents eyes. Two excellent player. Two Beats in the NFL. Your parents are proud. Good Job.
This speech got me thinking about my own brother, and family. I've always followed my brother's lead, I can't imagine Shannon doing the same, and the only thing he couldn't follow him into was the hall of fame. Sterling would have been a hall of famer if not the greatest to ever do it, it's a shame he doesn't have the gold jacket. I think we can all say in our minds and hearts, he's a hall of famer
Sterling Sharpe ran 1a to Jerry Rice for 3-4 years from 1990 to 1993. The man should be in the Hall of Fame. It's a joke that his body of work isn't considered worthy because he didn't win a ring, but Lynn Swann, who had a pedestrian career amplified by being on a legendary team, is. Meanwhile, Cliff Branch, who had superior numbers, big playoff numbers/games, and three SB rings of his own, might never get in. It's pathetic.
lets spend a moment contrasting this HOF speech with Michael Jordan's. Shannon spent the whole speech honouring and thanking those around him in sports and in life, and in his family. Jordan spent most of his HOF speech taking shots at those around him in his career putting particular emphasis on expoosing those who doubted him. If there's a Sports GOAT in my mind, I'll take Shannon any day.
I was flipping through channels when I came across this speech. I had never been a big sports fan and I didn't know who he was at the time but I watched it and became a huge fan of his. I've really enjoyed following his career.
I do give Shannon a hard time when him and skip argue but I do remember how great he was of a player and I’m glad I saw this video. Shannon Sharpe is a hero.
I feel your pain Shannon about Sterling, I am a die hard Packer fan, been one for 60 years, Sterling was so fun to watch, he made amazing catches from Brett Favre and he did this while having turf toe, which is extremely painful, it caused him to miss practice at times, but who cares, he was a receiving machine on the field on game day and always with a huge smile on his face! Sterling deserves to be in the football hall of fame now!!!
Thank you Shannon sharpe grama for raising 2 amazing people in this world. Honestly I hope they make a movie of Shannon sharpe life growing up. I would watch it!
i have a younger brother, we had a very rocky relationship because we were polar opposites, he was a honor roll student getting into ivy league colleges, i was deep in the streets bringing guns into the house, this is one of the things that inspired me to fix my relationship with my brother and im so grateful i did. When sterling had tears running down his cheek sheeeesshh lmaoo i felt that. If you have younger siblings, tell them you love them and tell them you are proud of them.
The comment about his brother makes me cry. Unbelievable.
Fr Shannon talked a lot of trash about him being the best but has a lot of respect for his brother..
Sterling was a beast before he got hurt. He was Chris Carter good.
Temiken reminds me of me and my brother
MackinShizzaveli #WeWasCavemen I love chris. but he was better then carter
im very touched
He only played for 6-7 years & has 8,000+ Receiving yards. 65 TDS. Almost 600 catches. That's crazy!!!!. Plus 4 pro bowls an 3 All Pro's. Put him in!!!
Sebastian Alaimo if he never got injured idk what he would be
Gale sayers in it...and he has worst stats....
He was inducted in 2014
cory legg derrick brooks Ray guy Claude Humphrey Walter Jones andre reed Michael Strahan aeneas Williams got inducted in that year, no sterling
Sebastian Alaimo better stats than most nfl wide receivers that played a full career are in the hof now
Shannon’s grandma the real HoFer
But she could never beat the 95-96 Bulls so in Skips view is she
@@joesmith5634 she never a closer like Micheal Jeffery Jordan
Only because ray allen made this biggest clutch shot in nba history
But how does this affect Lebrons legacy?
role model
man of morals, dignity, honor, and respect
Well said
Damn you fine!!
Joshua Cortes lmao the irony
Definitely. The guy is an absolute legend.
His grandparents must have been amazing. Real lucky he had them, since his parents werent around.
Truly remarkable speech, Shannon deeply understands and appreciates those who were around him.
Very true
@Kevin Prima well, his grandma probably acted more like a mom
But here’s the thang skieeeeeeppppppppp

WHY YOU DO THAT SKIIIIUUUUPPPP
If it wasn't for ray Allen's three, Shannon wouldn't be in the HOF -skip
Skip just a hater
Lmao "If Sean Lee was playing during Shannon Sharpe's time in the NFL Shannon would NOT be in the HOF" - Skip
He lacked the clutch gene, unlike his brother - skip
😂😂😂 skip always arguing
Michael Jeffrey Jordan HOF speech was better. He delivered when the game was on the line.

Joel Mc I agree 100% about Irvin but I’m not so sure on Carter
Sterling sharpe should be in it
He was inducted into the hall of fame in 2014. This speech was made in 2011
BreadKing Jahmal College Football Hall of Fame. Not the NFL
he will be some day
Basil Carpenter jr he would've been better than randy moss and T.O? Well obviously it doesn't matter what could've happened, it matters what actually happened, and what happened was he only played 7 years, he was good for 7 years but don't shame moss Like that
He would have been up there w jerry and Randy if he didn't get hurt...he was phenomenal w farve as his qb who knows what may have been!
Sterling should be in the Hall. I don't care if he played seven years.
He should get the Gale Sayers treatment. And it's not like the Bears were world beaters in the time he was there. They never even made the playoffs. Put Terrell Davis in too imo...
He was inducted in 2014
Michael Pinkrah that was the college hall of fame not nfl
If Terrell Davis can get into the HOF In spite of the injury that ended his career, Sterling Sharpe should have that same opportunity.
Michael Pinkrah that was the college football HOF not the Pro HOF
all the hate on shannon cause yall aint better than him
People hate Shannon? How is that even possible. I don't even like American football and still can't get enough of hearing him talk about it and anything else.
Almost made me tear up. Seeing a softer side of Uncle Shay, than his usually vibrant self on Undisputed. Awesome HOF speech!
That's his role on the show, sometimes he sounds like a b*tch but we know Shannon is good person deep inside. Love it when they're yelling at each other to emphasize their point but that's part of the show, we know how TV show works. That thing about his brother and grandmother is priceless.
U did tear up! As did I.... 😢
the best HOF speach iv;e ever seen
STERLING STARTED 112 games, had 8,134 reciving yard and caught 65 TOUCHDOWNS ( which is more than Shannon's 55 Denver and 7 Baltimore thouchdowns put together) C'Mon SKIP PUT HIM IN THE HALL!!!!!!!!
Shannon was a tight end huge difference dude. But Sterling should be in.
Truly one of the best HOF speeches. I love his passion and it's one of the main factors that got him to Canton.
I broke down during his speech.
SHANNON SHARPE is A Real Proud Black Man....Love
Lamar Love Just man, his colour doesn’t define him
You really can feel the love Shannon have for his grandma and brother.
He never forgot where he came from and who got him where he is now.
Hearing that all his Grandma wanted from her millionaire grandson was "a decent home - a home that won't be wet at all inside after a big rain storm" is truly humbling! So many things in my life I take for granted, so easy to not be thankful for all the wonderful things we've been blessed with. What a powerful, moving speech.

I would agree if I didnt already know he's a democrat
Favre to Sharpe was the best QB/Receiver duo in the NFL for 3 straight years. Look at the numbers. It is indisputable. He belongs in the hall.
Joel Mc Sterling Sharpe was good even before brett got there with Don makowsky and them other scrub quarterbacks they had in Green Bay.
Never said he wasn't great before Favre. But he WAS at his best with Favre. you can say that about almost any receiver who played with Favre. So are you a Bears or Vikings fan? Or just ignorant? Maybe all 3?
Joel Mc lmao fool why u so mad he’s just pointing out he was still great with worse QB’s
Joel Mc stfu
Always knew shannon was a real one, much respect
This guy is amazing on the mic. He also never ages.
He wears glasses now, they are the only sign he may be aging.
This might be the best hof speech ever. ShAnnon sharpe showed humility and praised his brother and grandmother for his success. Great speech Shannon. Straight from the heart 👊👊
Damn that part about Sterling was awesome.. He was really a beast...
By far the best HOF speech that I've seen

Same here! And I've always loved Sterling!
Shay wanted to be his Brothers twin....that’s how much he loves his big bro
The first 30 seconds got me in tears already
Tears were shed
One of the most powerful Hall of Fame speeches ever. Shay Sharpe, that testimony was Hall of Fame worthy also. Much respect to you brother...

Sterling Sharpe is my favorite player! I was so devastated when his career was cut short! His numbers are crazy!
Incredible. The man is a true champion.

Lol people stay hating on Jordan😂😂😂shit is sad
The dislikes above show me that there are 14 people in the world that don't know and will never understand A Brother's Love.
“Am I the man you thought I would be” brought a tear to my eye
One of , if not the greatest HOF speech of all time.
Hard to top this
Shannon, what a man in this speech.
I shed tears watching this speech. If anyone needs motivation, listen to this 🥰
He might as well be an inspirational speaker so touching
A film needs to be made of these two brothers and the meaning of the word motivation. Truly, amazing. 👍🏾
I'm not crying you're crying 😭 salute to Big Unc Grandma and His Big brother

This was an awesome speech!
The respect I have for this man in on another level

"I never once lived in your shadow I embraced it " wow for a brother to say that that Is love .

A joke
