For that matter I didn't think Young deserved to be there not as a first ballot for that matter.

The thing is, back in Art Monk's playing days, his name was always mentioned amongst the top receivers in the league: Steve Largent, Jerry Rice, Henry Ellard, etc...I think the only advantage that the other "big names" have this year is the fact that they might still be fresh in people's minds. But, as far as all the tangibles and intangibles required for Monk to make the hall of fame, he possesses them all. It's just a shame that the hall of fame committee won't vote him in because they just don't like the guy.
