I agree to a point. I would say very good receiver, but not a HOF receiver. However, I think he has a better chance of making it because of the way he made himself "a brand." There are a lot of guys in the HOF not because of what they did between the lines, but because they are famous. It stinks, because it should be about what you did on the field and deserving players based on what they did on the field get left out in favor of "celebrities" like Chad. Time will tell if he marketed himself well enough to get votes that should go to better players.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
