Question for you TAFKAS.

I too think Faulk is HOF worthy. My question to you is this:

First ballot HOF'er??

In my opinion, its easier for players like Faulk to get into the hall simply because they got much more exposure than the players of years past. Not to take anything away from him because he would have been great in any era. I almost feel like the players of years past get short changed when it comes to the hall because they played when football wasn't as widely popular(out of sight, out of mind).

I think he gets in the hall but there shouldn't be such a rush to get these guys in on the first ballot.
