It has been a long time coming, but Bob Hayes finally has gotten his spot in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. Hayes deserved his spot a long time ago, but just like in any voting process you do not always get a fair shake. Hayes had some off the field issues after he retired and that in my mind had a lot to do with it taking so long to Bob Hayes in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame.
The Hall Of Fame is suppose to base your performance on the field and when Bob Hayes played their were few as good as him. Was he the greatest all around football player? No, but he changed the game in many different ways that we see today. The zone defense was design to stop Bob Hayes, but it could not as he was just to fast. People do not realize how fast Bob Hayes was and very seldom was he ever caught from behind.
Hayes deserved his spot in the Hall Of Fame a long time ago. let us hope that the Hall will start putting in many more Dallas Cowboys as I know of many7 deserving players that are just not their. Hopefully this will start a trend.
