RE: _NFL Season begins with the Hall of Fame Week in about two weeks.
I agree his behavior was an issue, I'm not disputing that, but that shouldn't keep him out. I don't believe your comparison to Pete Rose is fair, because Owens didn't cheat the game. He was a jerk, and although he was a jerk, he is one of the best players in the history of the game. If it wasn't for his name, he would have been a first ballot Hall of Famer, and thats not right. That severely damages the legacy and integrity of the Hall of Fame.
it falls into the same category.... character unbecomming of the league. the only difference is the media has accepted that pete rose should be allowed entry into the HOF, but it is MLB keeping him out... with owens it is the media who has yet to greenlight ownes entry into the HOF.... like i have already said... OWENS WILL GET ENSHRINED INTO THE HOF....it's just going to be at the media's leisure, not his..
