Hall of Fame reveals 25 semifinalists for Class of 2019

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000...ss-of-2019


The Pro Football Hall of Fame unveiled its 25 modern-era semifinalists for the Class of 2019 on Tuesday. The list includes three first-time candidates: CB Champ Bailey, TE Tony Gonzalez and safety E
Champ, Ed, and Tony Gonzo are getting in. Hopefully this year is Boselli's year.
nope boselli won't get in this year either. the nfl will keep giveing him the shaft every year.
Too many first ballots on that list this year for him to have a chance.

I think Tony Boselli will eventually be voted into the Pro Football HOF.  The question is more likely will it be as part of the regular HOF voting process or will he have to wait until being a Senior Nominee?

Looking like it will be a Senior Nominee.  If this team had a strong follow up season from last year, it would make it easier to get momentum for Tony.

If not this year then I am thinking probably never.  Fantasy football does not reward lineman and fantasy football is ruining/running the NFL.  As the old guard continues to retire and be replaced by writers that grew up with fantasy football the likelihood of non-FF point producers diminishes.  I despise fantasy football and what it is doing to the game I love.  I digress but here is to hoping Tony gets in before it is too late.  He is arguably the best LT to ever play the game if only he could have played a couple more years he was a 1st team HoF'er IMO.

Related to what you mentioned,  the lost opportunity of the Jaguars getting high viewership because their game vs. the Steelers was flexed out of Sunday Night,  certainly didn't help Tony Boselli's HOF bid getting momentum.   Even one mention on a SNF game for Boselli could have helped his chances significantly.
if he played for any other team he would of gotten in eaisley. NFL won't alloew him in cause he played for the Jaguars.
I don't see him getting in this year. Too many other nods. I'm not sure who's coming in the next few years, but he might have missed his real chance unfortunately..... #becauseJaguars
Honestly I think Boselli is our only chance at getting a bust in Canton. We are a meandering franchise without a national figure. MJD didn't play long enough. Freddy T deserves it but that is my opinion and he is getting lost in the shuffle.
