Yesterday's announcement that Thurman Thomas was elected to the Hall of Fame should come as no surprise. After all, only Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders had more rushing yards in the 90's than Thomas. What is surprising is Thomas didn't get elected in his first year of eligibility.
Thomas is the seventh Bill to go to Canton: James Lofton and Joe DeLamielluere (2003), Jim Kelly (2002), Marv Levy (2001), Billy Shaw (1999) and some other running back we won't mention who was enshrined in 1985.
Andre Reed did not make it out the round of 17. I'm afraid Reed will have the same destiny as Art Monk - solid players whose stats say they belong in the Hall of Fame, but will annually be passed over. Bruce Smith will be a lock in a couple of years when he is eligible. Counting Levy and Lofton, Smith would be the fifth member of the "glory years" to reach Canton.
Final thought: Someone should give a highlight tape of Thurman and give it to Willis McGahee. Running, catching, and picking up blocks, Thurman was the complete back. And now his career is complete, with an honor that is well-deserved.
