It is borderline criminal that Ken Riley is not in the hall, especially when there is a veteran committee set up for the purpose of recognizing specifically those overlooked in their immediate eligibility. I mean, seriously, WTF do those idiots discuss when they meet?
Ok guys, looks like there's another writing campaign from thousands of people in Cincinnati to get Ken Riley into the hall. His numbers still hold up, by all accounts he was a model citizen, and we've looked past him to enshrine several players with pedestrian numbers who happened to be on Super Bowl winning teams. And, as you know, there is only one Bengal enshrined after 50-some seasons of play. Further, I have here a direct plea for his enshrinement that's signed by Roger Goodell, all 189 living members of the Hall, US Senators Schumer and McConnell, all living former US Presidents, Taylor Swift, Pope Francis, both the Palestinian Authority and Israel, and that Bengal fan who chained himself to the hall nine days ago and is still continuing his hunger strike. So, do we actually want to consider Mr. Riley this time, or just adjourn? Yep, I agree. See you next year!
The Bengals should have 2 more HOF'ers in Ken Riley and Ken Anderson. We haven't had a HOF'er IMO since. Chad had good numbers but he's not a HOF. He's a ROH player but he wasn't HOF worthy. Maybe Geno but I don't think he played long enough and again he played in Cincinnati with no rings.
