Carlos wouldn't be in the conversation for several years if they went that route, so whether or not his recent breakup should be considered would have at least cooled by then.

I think it's beyond odd that this team doesn't want to celebrate their legacy through some players who've had real impact.  Even in the dark 90s, there were guys who kept the team afloat and interesting.  In each era, it's easy to pick out players who should be singled out for their contributions to the team and city.  I get why the family doesn't want to spend the money on an indoor practice field, etc.  But a ROH/HOF within the stadium just isn't that significant of an expense.  I feel that one thing PBS lacks is a sense of character.  I think celebrating the past and legacy of the team, the Jungle and the passion of the fanbase could go a long way into making PBS something more than the cold concrete structure it is today.  

I completely agree.

Didn't mean all those guys should go in at once. 

The first class would be maybe Anderson, Paul Brown, Munoz and Boomer.

Then just add a few a year each year.

I was just saying that I think all those names would belong in said ring of honor before Dunlap got added.
