Champ Bailey Returns To DC: HOF Bronco or Skin?

[Ruhskins]

Haven't we established that unlike the Baseball HOF, in the Football HOF players don't get inducted as part of team? Why do people keep bringing this up?

In the title i put even though they technically don't choose, generally they lead toward one team, right? Like Marcus Allen...? Maybe I'm wrong, just wanted some Champ Bailey talk.

It will be interesting how CP will be remembered. He is our 2nd all time leading rusher. Maybe him and Riggo can make up. Riggo pi**** off alot of people doesn't he.

Didn't you know that changed when Chad Ochocinco self enshrined himself a few years back? Now anything goes!!

Seriously, that is one of my message board pet peeves along with Blatche/Blache and not understanding the IR when it relates to Colt Brennan.

Sorry, back OT.. Bailey will be remembered primarily as a Bronco I believe. He didn't do anything specifically of note as a Redskin, which probably had more to do with the teams he was on than him in particular. He was outstanding but IMO was never at the level of a Deion, Woodson or one of the true game changers at the position, especially here.

This is the truth. I hate these threads.

Even if it were like baseball, Bailey played the majority of his career and has put up better stats with Denver, it wouldn't be a question.

While this is true many players still sign one-day contracts to retire as a member of a certain team. So for the HOF you are correct, but you do retire as part of a team symbolically at least.
