Minnesota Sports Hall of Fame

[Buttcheeks McGaffigan]

ESPN is doing a sports HOF for Dallas, LA, NY, Boston, and Chicago. It would be interesting to read some candidates and choices. Five candidates in the inaugural class. No active player, coach, or executive is eligible.

My first five

Kirby Puckett
Herb Brooks
Bronko Nagurski
Alan Page
Harmon Killebrew

[BleedGopher]

The most under-appreciated and least included player in these lists is George Mikan. The man should be in the top 3 for any all time impactful player in MN pro sports history. He was voted the best player in the NBAs first 50 years.

Go Gophers!!

Hard to argue any of the six above. Let's just throw Bud Grant in there for kicks.
