I can only imagine the shenanigans he would be pulling right now.

About time. Best ever at his position and the fact it took until now is absurd. But, glad he can finally take his rightful place.

He changed the way the game is played. Any player who does that deserves the HOF. There's too many players in the HOF who are very very good players but who are not great. Ray Guy was great

It's crazy it took this long for Guy to make it. Just look at that list. What other name stands out in the history of the game half as much as Guy's? When you think "NFL punter," there is Ray Guy and then there is everyone else -- that is, if you're an old fart like I am.

Morten Anderson should be in too. If Goodell wants to fix the game so bad, for the next five classes, he should mandate one kicker each class. But he's too busy putting a team in London or Botswana or whatever.
