Rest in peace Tinglehoff

Post by RandyMoss84 »

I am heartbroken hearing this, he was one of the greats and I am glad he got into the Hall of Fame years ago although it is a travesty that he had to wait for 32 years to get in! Tinglehoff and Randle are both undrafted and went into the Hall of Fame which an amazing accomplishment! Tinglehoff is the greatest center in Vikings history in my book! Rest in peace Mr. Tinglehoff!

Devastated to hear of his passing. The man was a legend of this sport, and the fact it took him nearly 40 years to enter the Hall of Fame is a travesty.

He had a great career. When I started following in 1970 hearing Tinglehoff and Sunde mentioned with the rest of that OL as the starters I knew we were rock solid up front.
