The media loves digit significance( if that makes any sense). 3000 Hits, 500 home Runs, 100 Reception Season, 4 Minute Mile, and the Sub 10 second 100 Meter dash are just a few examples.
950 Receptions is remarkable. But first to 1000 would've put him in the HOF in my mind.
FYI, I think he is the second greatest WR of all time and He should have been a first ballot HOF'er.


So, What do you think?
If he would have reached 1000 Receptions, Would he have received enough notoriety to get him into the HOF?

Wasn't Monk the first WR EVER to have a 100 catch season?
Him not being in the Hall is, in my mind THE biggest injustice in all of sports.
