Should Tom Brady still be considered a 1st ballot Hall of Famer?

[Dougie McBuckets]

I find it really annoying when posters make this seem like the end of an opera or mass murder or something. Brady's deflation is akin to a corked bat, which is stupid and cheating, but not that serious. When Sammy did it, did everyone say "He will only be remembered for a corked bat?" No, he was remembered for PED's...okay, Sosa was a cheat. Bad comparison. But to say "Brady will only be remembered for Deflategate," naw. Grow a brain. He is a decent quarterback and this Deflategate will just be a footnote, so stop getting all "No Hall of Fame for him."

First ballot and not even close. Make sure to call suicide hotline for Hammer when Brady is putting his gold jacket on. I have never seen anybody so mindfucked by a player like this before

He is a decent quarterback

He was a decent QB. Decent, not good or great. Certainly at no point was he HoF material, as we now know.

He's a lock 1st ballot ... He's been playing at a high level since 2001 ... It's 2015 now ...

Shocking isn't it?

Brett Favre will be a first ballot HOF inductee.

I you mean how fast time fly's bye .... HELL YEAH ....

 

[GenJac]

oh no this cheating thing negates the first ballad hof'r status for him .. cheaters really dont belong in the hall at all

It's always been that way and hopefully always will. Keep the Hall clean.

Obviously, this does not keep him out of Canton. His success is too good. But will he be a 1st ballot Hall of Famer?

I still believe he should be considered 1st ballot. He would have still dominated the Colts with regulated inflated footballs. Or do you think his rep is tarnished enough that he will never make Hall of Fame.

It obviously all depends on what happens with deflategate, he already has the Spygate hanging over his first 3 SB's but I think if he still gets suspended for this, he will not be a 1st ballot, if by some WWF like maneuvering goes on and it gets cleared, he will be a 1st ballot then.....
I really don't think that's going to happen....There is too much credibility at stake to ignore the extensive and expensive investigation that resulted in the suspension handed down by them..
The whole league would look like total buffoons and get sued by every player ever suspended, especially the latest black athletes.....Al and Jesse would have a field day on them....

Totally agree the HOF is not for cheaters it actually stands for something which NE does not but cheating.
