Hall of Fame nominees

The Hall of Fame on Thursday announced it's nominees for enshrinement in Canton next year: In January they'll whittle the list down to 15 and have a final vote in the spring. Here's a look at the Eagles on the long list, the years they played, and their chances for induction.

CB Eric Allen, 1988-1994
13-year career; Also played for Saints, Raiders
HOF material? No, but he was the best three-foot tall CB in league history.

TE Mark Bavaro, 1993
9-year career; Also played for Giants and Browns
HOF Material? No. Besides, he’ll always be a Giant to me. The hell with him.

T Lomas Brown, no time on the Eagles
17-year career; Also played for Lions, Cardinals, Browns, Giants and Bucs
HOF material? Probably not, but I’d love to hear Iggles fans chanting “LO-MAS!” one more time…

Ticket Director Leo Carlin, 1960- present
47-year career; Also works for the Philadelphia Soul
HOF material? No way. But I’d love to see an Eagle named Leo in the HOF.

WR Harold Carmichael, 1971-1983
13-year career; Also played for Cowboys
HOF material? Forget that – we let him play for the ‘boys for a season? What the hell?

WR Cris Carter, 1987-1989
15-year career; Also played for Vikings and Dolphins
HOF material? Definitely, although there wouldn’t be any doubt if he caught more than just TD passes.

QB Randall Cunningham, 1985-1995
16-year career; Also played for Vikings, Cowboys and Ravens
HOF material? I seriously think he’ll make it, though it may take a few years. And, if not as a QB, he could get in as a punter.

DE Richard Dent, 1997
14-year career; Also played for Bears, 49ers, and Colts
HOF material? Probably, but he’s a Bear, not a Eagle. Screw him too.

WR Roy Green, 1991
14-year career; Also played for Cardinals
HOF material? Honestly, I have no idea who this guy is.

LB Levon Kirkland, 2002
10-year career; Also played for Steelers, Seahawks
HOF material? No, but he was the fattest man every to play LB, so it’s hilarious he’s even on there.

WR Art Monk, 1995
15-year career; Also played for Redskins, Jets
HOF material? The well-know Redskin WR has been a snub every year for ... wait, Redskin? Screw him too.

RB Herschel Walker, 1992-1994
9-year career; Also played for Cowboys, Vikings, Eagles, Giants
HOF material? No, but “Walker up the middle for one yard” will always have a special place in our hearts.

RB Ricky Watters, 1995-1997
9-year career; Also played for 49ers, Seahawks
HOF material? Why would he get in there? For who? For what?
