It feels more earned with a HOF telling you. It's like a very small fraternal order, and a brother that you probably know does the honor I've telling you you are in. And the honor of one day getting to tell a new HOF that they are in. We don't need a new David Baker, where it felt awkward sometime anyway. Brother telling brother feels deep after years of battle and blood.
I do wish David Baker still did the knocks. The way he talked about the HOF you could just sense the tremendous amount of respect he had for the game. With that being said if David Baker has to retire I am glad they didn’t try to replace him and just went another route

I like this concept of knock on the door for HOF. We need more this kind of knock on the door. It felt wholesome! The feelings of knowing you are being told to be inducted to HOF by your own friends and teammates makes it more special!
I get what you are saying there, but there was the knowledge of David Baker and what that knock meant -- which is why many who received it were already being cheered, mobbed, hugged etc. before they opened the door to him.
nah. black folks already have to deal with so much trauma including no knock warrants (RIPower Breonna Taylor) this random knocking crap could cause a lot of stress for these Black Men who already gave it there all on the field. a simple phone call would suffise.
i like this approach, but i *really* liked Baker's speech -- it had such immense gravitas, worthy of such an immense moment for these extraordinary dudes. Train up these HOFers to give that speech and you have a home run.
Its one thing to win a Division, or the Conference, or even a Super Bowl. It's an achievement to be a Super Bowl MVP. But to be told by a HOF'er that your body of work (and work, and work, and work) throughout your career has been recognized by your peers and you have reached the pinnacle of your profession has to be very moving. The financial rewards are great, the beautiful house and cars are great, but they will pass. The recognition as a Hall of Famer will last forever. Congratulations to the Class of 2022!
#Leroy Butler was all purpose safety! Excellent at playing the pass and defending against the deep play. He could also stuff the box under Holgrim & Mc Cathy scemes. One of the best on the safety blitz!
Butler had as much talent as the best safeties but did what was needed for the team to win and still put up HOF worthy stats. One of my favorite players ever.
There has been over 25,000 men who have played in the NFL the past 100 years. About .01 percent of those guys are in the Hall of Fame. Let that sink in. 🏈
Also, seeing Munoz knocking on Tony’s door makes me want to see him knocking on Big Willie’s door even more. Willie Anderson deserved to get into the HOF this year. He was better than Joe Thomas. He damn well better make it in next year.
Marshall once had the record for consecutive games played. He was the Cal Ripken of football until a punter passed him. If he does get in they should have Alan Page knock on his door. Marshall should greet Page by saying, “Your honor.”
As a Bengals fan, I love seeing two of the greatest offensive linemen ever hug it out, but why did they send Munoz to Boselli’s place? same position, similar careers? were there no other Jaguars HOFers to do that?
Where’s the knock from Hampton, Dent and Singletary on Steve McMichael’s door??? Oh never mind, the Hall voters Snubbed him. Not disrespecting to Bryant Young and Richard Seymour BUT Mongo McMichael had statistically a better career. More sacks ( 95 and nearly double Seymour’s total) and more tackles (800+) than them. McMichael couldn’t be blocked one on one, could play sideline to sideline, caught Randell Cunningham from behind 20 yds down the field, was feared by QBs and O Lineman around the league, was the motor that made the great Bears D go. Truly disgusting to be snubbed by the pompous sports writers who voted. They should be ashamed.
Whoaaaaa Kurt Warner said the greatest frat in sports?? You mean 3rd place, somewhat you are not ready to take the world. Soccer aka futbol is the greatest we make billions you make millions
Art McNally passed away on New Years at age 97. Happy to see he got inducted while he was still alive.
He had they best reaction of all of them
I'm glad he lived long enough to get the great news.
As much as David Baker is an institution, I like what the HoF did here with teammates and friends in the Hall welcoming the new class.
Mr. Baker retired from the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
@@nicholasbenge9497 I'm fully aware of that -- so the change was made.

True, one of the few things the NFL has actually gotten right.

Art McNally is 96. Glad they did this while he is still alive
Why should Art McNally be in the Hall of Fame?

@@rafaelsale6364 He should be in the Ref Hall of Fame not the NFL Football Hall of Fame.

@@anthonyscioscia7098 I think only players and coaches should be in the NFL hall of fame. I respect your opinion,
Charles Woodson knocking on LeRoy Butler's door was so awesome

@@EyeOfThePhi very funny, lol 😁
@@michaelfalkner1186 bro came back 4 months later to change his opinion
That knock is special.
Grown, tough men cry.
For eternity you will be know as Pro Football Hall of Famer.
Art McNally = best official in the history of the game, makes the hall at 95 yrs old
❤️✊😭. So awesome
When are they going to put cheerleaders and water boys in the Hall of Fame?
And he died within the next year.
If he was the best then why did it take him 7 years to be inducted?
@@leobronson5464 maybe cause he’s a ref guy
@@_The_Journey what does the mean?
That is any offensive lineman’s dream to have Anthony Munoz telling you you’re going into the Hall of fame
Always thought coach Vermeil was overlooked. Great to see good friends knock and get big hugs:))
He was, great to see him get his due.
Never gets old, this is the best hall of fame in all of sports.
i like this approach, but i *really* liked Baker's speech -- it had such immense gravitas, worthy of such an immense moment for these extraordinary dudes.
Train up these HOFers to give that speech and you have a home run.
Hearing about Tony Boselli’s enshrinement made me cry. I always knew he would make it and he did. GO JAGUARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
absolutely and so should Willie Anderson
To think Dick Vermeil one of the games greatest mind is tucked away in a Cabin in the middle of nowhere is really cool to see.

I liked the randy moss one… what he must have been feeling… his journey passing before his teary eyes… man!!!
I’m happy that McNally found out that he was being selected for the Pro Football Hall of Fame before his death.
R.I.P. Art

Leroy deserved HOF for being the first Lambeau leaper. One of the best traditions in sports

FYI that's 2.5 people. ;)
@@chrisaultman1 just spit out my coffee, thanks a lot chris
Waooo Tony Boseli lo recuerdo siempre en ese gran equipo que tenía Jasonville, QB Mark Brunel, RB Fredd Taylor, WR Jimmy Smith ❤
Some of the greatest players of all time , and all deserving of being in the hall of fame!
Yes and NO! NOT ONE of them deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. If it were up to me 20% of the people in the Hall of Fame would not be in there.
If you haven’t been and get the chance go! I’m blessed to have grown up 30 minutes from the Hall of Fame. If you’re a football fan it’s a must!
Beautiful...
I can't watch this anymore, got me crying like big baby. Wow.
The one with Jimmy Johnson is just unreal. The emotion and effect he had on so many.
Unfortunately I think Jerry cursed his team when he gassed JJ.
Anytime they say “welcome to canton” I burst out crying 😂
You know Dick Vermeil cried. 😂
Amazing
When I answered someone knocking on my door it was the JW!
This was funny🤣
You should have looked in the mirror and known it wasn't the HOF! 😂😂😂😂
When is the knock on Zach Thomas’ door? He deserves to be there more than a lot of the linebackers that are in.
It better be Jason Taylor knocking
I'd bet its Jimmy Johnson.
About the same time that this comment was posted, Jimmy Johnson informed Thomas that he would be inducted into the Hall of Fame on 5 August, 2023.
Art was the best 🔥
I love the fact that the notifiers are wearing their gold jackets. As Ty Law said, "You know why I'm here."
RICHARD SEYMOUR MAHHH MAIN MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I definitely like this way a lot better
I love what they did with This actual going to the new industries house and telling them the news that way
They better have Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks, and John Lynch knock on Ronde Barbers door. Historic Defense.
Absolutely. I love Lynch, but Ronde should've gone first. Among this year's finalists, there are maybe three in his league.
It was Brooks.
EVERY FOOTBALL FAN HAS TO GO TO CANTON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS GREAT THERE. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I liked it better when just the one older guy came to the nominees doors and knocked
Baker knock on the door is way better. Also love how he presents on what coming to Canton is all about.
Tom Rathman should be in there.
Also, seeing Munoz knocking on Tony’s door makes me want to see him knocking on Big Willie’s door even more. Willie Anderson deserved to get into the HOF this year. He was better than Joe Thomas. He damn well better make it in next year.
cool to see the former commish in here
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Some day it will be Jim Marshall's knock.
Marshall once had the record for consecutive games played. He was the Cal Ripken of football until a punter passed him. If he does get in they should have Alan Page knock on his door. Marshall should greet Page by saying, “Your honor.”
Dick vermeil is a national treasure
Anthony Munoz and Tony Boselli! Two Trojans!
Wait, Vermeil didn’t get in until 22….? All these fair to mid talents beat him there…? Got damn, it’s turning into the rock and roll hall of fame….
If you're not smiling about this then I don't want to know you
How about Charles Haley looking like he can still bring it.
As a Bengals fan, I love seeing two of the greatest offensive linemen ever hug it out, but why did they send Munoz to Boselli’s place? same position, similar careers? were there no other Jaguars HOFers to do that?
No. Boselli is the first Jag ever to make the HoF.
Munoz and Boselli both went to USC, so they have that connection as well.
Where’s the knock from Hampton, Dent and Singletary on Steve McMichael’s door???

No more big guy
At 0:32 So wrong with these two in and the Coach that made them. Don Coryell is such a great Coach and not in Drivers me nuts
About the time that this comment was posted, Coryell's family was notified that he would be inducted 5 August 2023.
Whoaaaaa Kurt Warner said the greatest frat in sports?? You mean 3rd place, somewhat you are not ready to take the world.
Soccer aka futbol is the greatest we make billions you make millions
The NFL is a billion-dollar enterprise.
Deion is correct. They let everybody in these days.
Is there a better job ?
Dick wasn’t crying? WHAT???
Doesn’t hit as hard when it’s not David Baker
Is this all scripted?
The 2021 Hall of Fame class was the most deserving Hall of Fame Class of all time, and the class of 2022 is the least deserving class of all time.
Put YOUR career stats up.... Dick.
No Hines Ward or James Harrison for shame
Leroy Butler is not a HOF in my book! If Darren Woodson isn’t in the hall then he shouldn’t be. Woody was better than him!
A year old video with 426 likes... I blame Leroy Butler 🤡
Playoffs!
Does he wear a mask around his house 24/7? SMH
Imagine being upset about a mask.
The black players went to the black player's houses. The white/hispanic went to the white player's houses. Nothing racial about that
Oh shut up.
@@LinkRocks truth hurts
Vermeil doesn't belong neither does Jimmy Johnson or Kurt Warner
Nobody asked you 😂🤣😝😁
Awful music
