For Sterling Sharpe not to be included in the Hall of Fame is a crime and this is from a Minnesota Vikings fan. This man was unstoppable before the neck injury and the numbers he put up through his 7 years are Hall of Fame numbers.
Abel Mehari listen man i watched this dude play in the early 90's and, coming from a Niners fan, I would say he's 1a in my book as far as the most dominant receiver of that time. Unfortunately, injuries derail many promising careers, and 7 years just isn't enough time to log to be considered a Hall of Famer. Again, not disagreeing with the unstoppable part, cause this dude was straight fire.
+Blackhawk5656 Gale Sayers was MAGIC!!!! If you seen the clips, it is indisputable as to why he is in Canton. it took him 61 Games... That's all he needed to convince us all.

I can do you one even better , with the same formula as all American, they should make a scripted about Shannon and Sterling tumultuous journey to NFL greatness
Sterling Sharpe will get in soon. His name is gaining momentum. Look at Gale Sayers, Kenny Easley, and now Terrell Davis. All had "short"careers (8 years) but they made the most of them. Look At Sterling's career compare to theirs.
george hudson it’s basically a foregone conclusion he would have won the SB in at least 1996, and maybe having Sterling could have put them over the hump in 97 and 98
Sterling Sharpe in a 7 year career w/ the Pack and less than 3 years with Favre: -league leader in receptions 3 times (led the league in his 2nd year!) -league leader in TD receptions twice -5 out of 7 years over 1,000 yards (nearly 6) -All time team leader in TD receptions in single season (18) -All time team leader in season receptions (112), owns 2nd highest total (108) -2nd all time in Packers history in TD receptions (65) (Don Hutson-92 in 11 years) -Only year didn't lead the team in receptions was rookie year -Never missed a game (tough SOB if you knew his injury reports) lot of other stuff not mentioned..
You make a legit case for Sterling Sharpe being in the HOF. Go back and look at his numbers. If it wasn't for a neck injury ending his career, Sterling would have been top five receivers of all time.
I watched this again and even five years later, I'm still "chopping onions" and "fighting allergies" big time on this. Shannon Sharpe and Deion Sanders gave two of the finest Hall of Fame speeches ever.
Charles allen jr Michael Irvin's HoF speech gets me everytime! He showed so much emotion in his speech. Emmitt Smith's HoF speech also is awesome, especially when he spoke of Moose Johnston. His eyes had a 5 gallon bucket of water in them!
Wow! After all these years I never knew Shannon was the man he is. I watched this because of his amazing and articulated speeches on Undisputed. This along with Deion and Irvin, is the greatest hall of fame speech I've heard. ps put Sterling in the HOF too man
I am from Georgia my sister married a man from Glenville Georgia. I saw Shannon play football against Fort Valley State. He was big and strong. The speech made me cry.
I feel for Sterling. He was truly great when he was on the field. If you saw him play, you knew he was first ballot HoFer material. You could tell Sterling and Shannon know it. It at least was a great consolation that Shannon put him on the stage with him because he knew it meant so much to him.
🙂 DEAR SHANNON SHARPE, I FEEL LIKE I KNOW YOUR 😇 GRANDMOTHER. EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE A ❤ MARY PORTER ❤ IN THEIR LIVES .. GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY. THANK YOU 🫂🙏💪🏾

I love how Shannon talks about his grandma, just lost mine and we was close, every time he references her on undisputed it's always on point , I know she was a good woman💯
That was such a thoughtful, honest speech. He was respectful, grateful and humble in his acknowledgements. I always thought he was a great athlete, but this speech offers insight into him being a great person. It's not easy to admit ones flaws, but he did it unapologetically. Glad to have the opportunity to see such a moving experience. May God continue to bless and keep him.❤
Shannon Shapre's humility is a true testament to his greatness both on and off the field. I don't know how big brother Sterling held it together with that whole 2nd best in his family variety Shannon threw at us -- I mean he didn't really, but more so than me at least and I don't even know the man.
Best HOF speech ever. I am a real man but I cried like a spanked baby. Darn you Shannon! I cry every time I watch this. I have so much respect for Shannon Sharpe after this. And God bless Mary Porter. Reminds me of my grandma who helped raised me.
Correct and after Peyton & Eli, They will give it to Sterling (they can’t allow them to be the first brothers in the HOF), sports industry still RACIST as ever 🤷🏽♀️
72.6 recieving yards/game and 65 tds in 7 seasons is nuts. especially in the era he played. 88-94. There's only 10 receivers, post merger, who had 70+ receiving yards/game and 60+ tds.
Shannon Sharpe! You got me and your brother tearing. “I may be in the Hall of fame, but I am the second best player in my family.” I am glad that portion of your speech got standing ovations. Honor to those that are due. You ar not only good at sports, you are witty and wise. You are an orator. 🤙🤙👌.
Shannon could have been a preacher easily. Amazing speech that had tears in my eyes for real. The emotions and honest is beautiful to watch. God bless him and his grandmother. Get Sterling into the Hall of fame immediately!
Shannon, I watch ya every day on Fox. I just want to congratulate you on giving the single best Hall of fame speech ever given. You are class personified, and I just want to say how proud your grandma and family are of you. There are also legions of NFL fans such as myself at 56 years of age that think the world of one of the very best Tight Ends to ever play the game. You did it all right my friend. Congratulations & best of success in your future endeavors .William ~
As a younger cat I've never truly understood the general dislike for Shannon Sharpe nor have I cared too. As far I am concerned from what I can see this man is a stand up guy and an individual worthy of emulation. We can never ever have enough positive role models.
+KingAfrikQaB 1 day before start of regular season Sterling threatened to hold out for a new contract and that rubbed people the wrong way. And Brett of all people really let him have it
One of the greatest success stories of all time. Shannon is the definition of a winner. Always positive. And his tribute to Sterling says it all. The man is all heart.
The Hall of Fame was built for Sterling Sharpe. For Sterling to not have a place there is insane. At the point of his retirement he was among best receivers of all time; and among his contemporaries only Jerry Rice is in his class- and Rice is only considered to be better because he played longer; Sharpe was the far superior WR of the two, in every facet of the game. How is he not in the hall of fame?
promeitheus sterling was great but don't say he's superior to Jerry. Jerry is undoubtedly the greatest receiver ever and among the top 5 players of all time. And if guys like Terrell Owens, marvin harrison, and isaac bruce don't get in their first try, sterling will never make it
All time speech. This guy knows his roots. When someone dedicates his life to another human like this. You know they had a profound impact. GRANDMA IS PROUD!!! She is the real mvp..
Saw a tik Tok clip had to watch the whole thing. The way he shows love to his brother shows the kind of man he is! Loved him already, now I can say he is on my list of favorite all time players!!
When Shannon was at Savannah State he would take a slant 80 yards to the house. Legend has it he told the coach it's not enough weights in the weight room. He would be in the weight room on the weekends when everyone was partying.
Man, I love Shannon Sharpe. I sure do wish I could be a stand up guy like him. I'm 35 years old and Shannon, I can honestly say that you are one of my roles. Your granny raised you well. #continue to make us proud#
3 things: First, this was in my opinion, the greatest HOF speech I've ever seen. Second, if Gale Sayers was elected to the HOF after an injury-shortened 7 year career, then certainly Sterling Sharpe should be. Third, the only athlete I think may be capable of equaling or surpassing this magnificent speech is none other than Shannon's former teammate, RAY LEWIS.
HoustonIsImmortal can you believe those two played on the same team? How can you beat them? Probably the greatest combination of offensive and defensive leadership on a team.
This speech was very very moving & the pinnacle of it, was admitting that his Brother was a better player than he was, before his injury. That is str8🆙 respect 👊🏾
swacfan100 Same here....I was young and I loved my grandma and treated her well, I just wish I would have got the chance to let her know how much she meant to me.....may she R.I.P.
Same here, I'm sure she knew how much I loved and appreciated her the fact that I never told her pains me to this day. She was my everything. RIP 🙏 Mrs Annie L. Hawkins.
Anytime anyone ever feels down or gets off the path somehow. Just watch this video. What a hell of a speech. If you don't get a little choked up watching this, you aren't human.
He missed the pro bowl one time I didnt even see him play but 3 1st all teams fuck that if reggie wayne Steve smith and torry holt made it sterling shoulf be there period and you clearly dont know what u talking about
What a great humble acknowledgement he gave to his brother and indeed Sterling Sharpe was entered into the hall of fame December 9, 2014. Sterling paved the way for his brother, and his brother paved the way for him in the end! Wow! Tears.
I've always liked and respected Shannan as player and commentator but Undisputed and this speech have made me a full blown FAN and supporter of the man. Congratulations my brother!
Been following Shannon for a couple years now on "Undisputed" and finally took the time to see this incredible man accept His induction in the HallOfFame. Wow...this guy never ceases to amaze me. Hate to put anyone on a pedestal...but this man is a true roll model and deserves admiration for His dedication to succeed. 😉👌
I’m not gonna lie, this is arguably the greatest HOF speech ever.
No cap

As a younger cat I've never truly understood the general dislike for Shannon Sharpe nor have I cared too. As far I am concerned from what I can see this man is a stand up guy and an individual worthy of emulation. We can never ever have enough positive role models.
He's a cheater
according to fans we can't
Well that's just a damn shame then.
+Splash King Why is he a cheat?
+KingAfrikQaB 1 day before start of regular season Sterling threatened to hold out for a new contract and that rubbed people the wrong way. And Brett of all people really let him have it
"I'm the only pro football player who's in the HOF , and I'm the second best player in my own family"
DAMN that's good!
"That's allI ask " Whew. Heavy.
Who got here after the Katt interview ...
Greatest speech of all time
Deion Sanders is just as good
SKIIIIIIIIIIUUUUPP! I made it SKIIIUPP!!
Hands down. Best speech ever. When he spoke of his grandma. I couldn’t hold back tears
Sterling deserves it. He was straight up one of the best ever. Shannon , you are a class act and my favorite TE ever.
One of the greatest success stories of all time. Shannon is the definition of a winner. Always positive. And his tribute to Sterling says it all. The man is all heart.
The Hall of Fame was built for Sterling Sharpe. For Sterling to not have a place there is insane. At the point of his retirement he was among best receivers of all time; and among his contemporaries only Jerry Rice is in his class- and Rice is only considered to be better because he played longer; Sharpe was the far superior WR of the two, in every facet of the game. How is he not in the hall of fame?
promeitheus sterling was great but don't say he's superior to Jerry. Jerry is undoubtedly the greatest receiver ever and among the top 5 players of all time. And if guys like Terrell Owens, marvin harrison, and isaac bruce don't get in their first try, sterling will never make it
mikevickisabeast sterling was good but saying he's superior to rice is blasphemy, he's not even better than T.O, Randy Moss, or Michael Irvin
I think Shannon agrees with you
Irvin is not top 5
This man speaks with such poise, such conviction. Shannon Sharpe is a true role model.
All time speech. This guy knows his roots. When someone dedicates his life to another human like this. You know they had a profound impact. GRANDMA IS PROUD!!! She is the real mvp..
This is one of the greatest speeches I've ever heard
Humble and knowledgeable with righteous on his shoulders.
Saw a tik Tok clip had to watch the whole thing.
The way he shows love to his brother shows the kind of man he is!
Loved him already, now I can say he is on my list of favorite all time players!!
You cannot hate this man...
What a dynamic hall of fame speech!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾
When Shannon was at Savannah State he would take a slant 80 yards to the house. Legend has it he told the coach it's not enough weights in the weight room. He would be in the weight room on the weekends when everyone was partying.
i believe that shit
then get laid afterwards
Man, I love Shannon Sharpe. I sure do wish I could be a stand up guy like him. I'm 35 years old and Shannon, I can honestly say that you are one of my roles. Your granny raised you well. #continue to make us proud#
Man I had a good cry to this . Congrats to Mr sharpe
I had a good cry too!!
In TEARS... I watch Shannon everyday on Undisputed but this is my 1st time watching this. God bless him and his family 🔥🔥❤️
Shannon is a true legend. Classy as they come.
I have massive respect for this man. He is a true role model.
3 things: First, this was in my opinion, the greatest HOF speech I've ever seen. Second, if Gale Sayers was elected to the HOF after an injury-shortened 7 year career, then certainly Sterling Sharpe should be. Third, the only athlete I think may be capable of equaling or surpassing this magnificent speech is none other than Shannon's former teammate, RAY LEWIS.
Ray Lewis will come up for 2018. He will bring down the house.
HoustonIsImmortal can you believe those two played on the same team? How can you beat them? Probably the greatest combination of offensive and defensive leadership on a team.
So... Do you think Ray's speech surpassed his?
I could not agree more.
Yeah Ray's was better but I love both these guys
IM A GROWN MAN,BUT THIS MAKES ME TEAR UP...THIS SPEECH WAS HEARTFELT AND HIT ME 2 THE CORE
Sterling Sharpe was so damn amazing!! Loved how he praised his bro!
This speech was very very moving & the pinnacle of it, was admitting that his Brother was a better player than he was, before his injury. That is str8🆙 respect 👊🏾
I never told my grandmother how much she meant to me either, I regret that too. Never take your loved ones for granted. Awesome speech 🙂
swacfan100 Same here....I was young and I loved my grandma and treated her well, I just wish I would have got the chance to let her know how much she meant to me.....may she R.I.P.
Same here, I'm sure she knew how much I loved and appreciated her the fact that I never told her pains me to this day. She was my everything. RIP 🙏 Mrs Annie L. Hawkins.
Can’t stop listening to this, I love how Shannon tells a story, the way he tells it you can see it as if you were there
Anytime anyone ever feels down or gets off the path somehow. Just watch this video. What a hell of a speech. If you don't get a little choked up watching this, you aren't human.
Had Sterling Sharpe played another 4-6 years, he'd be in the HOF slam dunk..
4-6?? Man I think 2 more years he might have had over 10,000 yards and 80 TDs. That might have been enough. You can't fight fate...
He missed the pro bowl one time I didnt even see him play but 3 1st all teams fuck that if reggie wayne Steve smith and torry holt made it sterling shoulf be there period and you clearly dont know what u talking about
Sterling shouldn't have been 4 years away - he was pretty damn close even with his career tragically cut short.
What a great humble acknowledgement he gave to his brother and indeed Sterling Sharpe was entered into the hall of fame December 9, 2014. Sterling paved the way for his brother, and his brother paved the way for him in the end! Wow! Tears.
GREAT SPEECH BY MR. SHARPE.
I have a new respect for him.
Hopefully his brother will also get inducted into the Hall Of Fame.
My level of respect for this man is on another level!
Great speech Great player Great Man
He seems so prestigious. He should run for office
Facts!!!
if any athlete has given a better HOF induction speech, I haven't heard it!
TboneLee check out Chris carter
TboneLee Allen Iverson’s speech was up there with Shannon’s
Ray Lewis an deion was 2 an 3rd
Jordan
me neither
Give you chills when you watch this speech. Second best player in his family.
Fantastic heartfelt speech. A true Hall of Famer. Shannon always speaks his heart.
I've always liked and respected Shannan as player and commentator but Undisputed and this speech have made me a full blown FAN and supporter of the man. Congratulations my brother!
Been following Shannon for a couple years now on "Undisputed" and finally took the time to see this incredible man accept His induction in the HallOfFame.
Wow...this guy never ceases to amaze me. Hate to put anyone on a pedestal...but this man is a true roll model and deserves admiration for His dedication to succeed. 😉👌
HOF speech SS was incredible that nite . If u cant take nothing from that speech and apply it to your journey called life ur probably not breathing
Couldn't stop crying when he spoke about that last part about his grandmother it really hit home
