Bengals.com Virtual Hall of Fame Resumes

Earlier this year, the Bengals Virtual Hall of Fame introduced two inaugural members; Paul Brown and Anthony Munoz. Brown is the father of the Cincinnati Bengals. Munoz is the team's only Hall of Fame inductee. Both were the proper selections.

The Virtual Hall of Fame is something run through the site, for the fans. As far as we know, the team isn't acknowledging it in that they're not making plaques, retiring numbers, or having any sort of awards ceremony. Why they don't introduce a Ring of Honor, to celebrate the team's past greats, I'll never know. So Bengals.com did the next best thing to introduce a Virtual Hall of Fame.

The site is doing another round, putting ten great names on the nomination list. You select three. The nominations are:

Ken Anderson
James Brooks
Cris Collinsworth
Isaac Curtis
Boomer Esiason
David Fulcher
Tim Krumrie
Lemar Parrish
Ken Riley
Sam Wyche

Make sure you vote.

Now, discuss the travesty that the league is doing to the Bengals by not inducting (at least) Ken Anderson and The Rattler Ken Riley into the Hall of Fame.

Anderson: Four passing titles. Four Pro Bowls
Riley: 65 Interceptions (fifth most in NFL History)

Ken Anderson

without a doubt should be in the Hall, one of the most accurate passsers of his era!

Anderson and Riley should be in

Gotta love Krumrie, but he’s not a hall-of-famer.

Agreed.

Krumrie should be in the Virtual Hall…and he will be, once we’ve taken care of Ken Anderson, Boomer Esiason and Ken Riley.

Hmm…Collinsworth…three Pro Bowls and four times over 1,000 yards is nothing to sneeze at, but then to follow that up with a sports-commentator career that most recently has him succeeding John Madden in the broadcast booth. Do you consider stuff like that (the post-NFL broadcast stuff) when you decide on a guy like that? Might have to bump The Rattler for Cris, if so.

VHOF

Ken Riley should be in the NFL HOF. The guy was the best of his era.
