How come my Jackie misses out on the tiebreaker

what is the difference between the blue and yellow names

No Kurt Warner???

The blue names are the top five to be voted on.

No Kurt Warner???

Warner is still active. If I remember correctly, only retired players are eligible.

So...this has nothing to do with us lay people?

I declare shenanigans!

[Curly Horns]

Nice to see Merlin on the list, although he deserves more votes!

I doubt too many of the Clan had the opportunity to watch Merlin in action. I'm thankful I got to see him and The Deacon together in action. Merlin was the quiet leader and the driving force behind the Fearsome Foursome.

Merlin is arguably one of the top defensive tackles of all time and one of - if not the greatest players to ever wear the Rams horns. No Rams Wall of Fame is worthy without him.

1 Norm (the Dutchman) Van Brocklin - Only ONE VOTE?!?!?!??!

You won't get any arguments from me Ferter. Rams icon who put the force in Fearsome Foursome. Pro Bowler in 14, 14 of his 15 years as a career Ram. More than worthy IMO.

By the way, the votes noted in this thread were nomination votes by Premium Members, not final Wall of Fame votes.

Merlin was as tough as nails and a total class act. He played for the love of the game and is synonymous with the great Ram tradition.

[TheRammer]

wow that is a hard hard vote... good luck guys

agreed

c'mon don't we get a say in this

Shouldn't each Mod nominate one person and state there case for why that person should be on the wall and the entire clan gets to vote on it.

i mean is just for the rest of the clan to see the winners without any entertaining debates?

I have to vote for Father Murphy! Not that he was the greatest, but as we go skipping along in life the accomplishments of those furthest removed need to be acknowledged before the whipper-snappers take over the world not having known/seen these stalwarts.
