He was clearly a great RB. So was Sayers and really, Barry Sanders didn't have a long career; he could've played a LOT longer.

Yes, there's plenty I don't let in, Mr. Smarty Pants...most of that list that was in the link.

The ones I listed, I believe really deserve it.

Seriously though - you would put Jamal Lewis in the Hall for one incredble year and two pretty good years?

Sanders had a LOT of great years, and no bad years (IIRC). I wouldn't compare him to Lewis and Davis.
