Description

NFL Hall of Fame 2019 | Re-Live Stories From the Hall
The NFL Hall of Fame 2019 enshrinement is in the books.  Each year Hall of Fame weekend is a sight to behold, and each year it gets bigger and bigger.  This year there were 8 inductees.  You can learn more about them in the following 2 episodes that were released a few weeks ago:
NFL Hall of Fame 2019 Class - Part 1
NFL Hall of Fame 2019 Class - Part 2
This episode takes you live in Canton, OH for Hall of Fame weekend.  You will hear stories from fans at the Hall, talking about their favorite football moments of all-time.  And as a side treat, you get to hear where they would take the keys to my DeLorean when I ask them where they are going to any point in NFL history.  The caveat.  They can't change the outcome, even though some snuck it passed me.  Either way, this is a cool episode for fans of the NFL.
I'd also love to hear your favorite football moment or the moment you're taking my DeLorean to back in NFL history.  If you would like to be on the show and share your story, head to MY FOOTBALL MOMENT for the details.
Guests On This Episode
Ron Whisman - Ron was the first person I interviewed this year at the Hall of Fame to get his favorite story.  As we were walking by the hall of busts, I hear Ron tell his family "this is like a religion to me".  I was like, yup, I gotta go talk to that dude.
Dillon Whisman - Dillon was the first to bring up the one time in his NFL career that Tebow was able to figure out how to throw the football in this AFC Wild Card game.  Oh yeah, Dillon sneaks in a way to change the outcome when he takes the keys to my DeLorean.  But with the story, I have to allow it.
Allen Hedge - Another guy talking about the John Elway helicopter move in the Super Bowl.  The story I thought that really told how fans think of their heroes on the gridiron comes in the form of Allen talking about John Elway's retirement speech.
Ben Broumand - This guy was all decked out in Lion's gear, so you know I was all about it.  His favorite moment was the game when the Detroit Lions beat the San Diego Chargers at the end of the 2011 season to advance to their first playoffs in forever.  The game he was taking my DeLorean back to was when the Lions captured their first postseason win since 1957, beating the Cowboys in the 1991 Divisional Playoffs.  I'm going to pause right now and think about that.  How many years were there in between?  Holy cats, batman.  Nonetheless, we did have BARRY for a brief moment.  Ben brought up another moment where he watched Barry after practice running sprints when everyone went to the locker room, and that's how his uncle told him Barry was the best.  He was willing to put the work in.
Bronco Queen - The Bronco Queen has season tickets and reminisced of Super Bowl 50 when Peyton Manning rode off into that sunset.  She also brings up how "gorgeous Champ Bailey is" and that she didn't understand how that was possible.  I will leave no comment.
Gregory Brown - Gregory reminisced about Kellen Winslow playing hurt and overcoming a deficit.  He also talked about how the 60s and 70s were a different type of game.  I covered the AFL-NFL Merger in some previous episodes if you want to learn more about the time.  He also wants to go back to the Tebow toss to Thomas.  This time he wants to remind Tebow that he doesn't know how to throw a football.  Gregory was also a fan of the Steelers during the 70s.
Jack Umlauf - Jack was a former reporter for the Buffalo Bills and Carolina Panthers.  He had quite a bit to say about various topics, but one thing he wanted to point out was how he felt the Bills fans are the most loyal there are.  One way to back it up was having fans show up during the blizzards.  Here's one that comes up.  He wants to go back to "The Comeback" game in 1992.  Jack also has a cool story of his boys remembering old Buffalo players coming over to his house.
Jeremy Shears - He's going to go watch the 49er
