Happy for him, for St Louis and for Ram fans everywhere.

One of the few that was both a Los Angeles & St. Louis Ram and I remember when the Rams drafted him, back then Pro Football Weekly had a phone number you could call and inquire on you teams draft (I think they charged for it) but I remember calling and the guy giving me the info on Isaac Bruce and then said, "Some people feel he was a steal." Well, whoever that guy was back then, was right and I'm happy for Isaac, Los Angeles, St. Louis & everyone else that was honored to watch him play.

Isaac Bruce was twice the receiver Terrell Owens was, without the drama...Congratulations Isaac Isidore Bruce and they won't catch him today!
Indeed. Ike was special from day one. The guy was an impact player no matter who was on the field with him, which a lot of receivers and players cannot say. True route running master.

What's funny is he would have been an insanely good fit for McVay and this offense too.

I never really felt that Edgerrin James was in Faulk's class. Now that they're both in the Hall of Fame, I still don't think he's deserving to be mentioned with Faulk as a Hall of Fame running back. It may be bias. Oh well.
I'll take because now there is a stronger case for S. Jackson

First the REV gets into the Hall of Fame. Then the 9ers choke in the Super Bowl. What a great goddamn weekend!

Congrats, Bruce. Probably the best route runner I have ever seen.

Finally....Bruce made the hall of fame!

Who else besides Holt could make the HOF from the GSOT era?

The only other one I can think of besides Holt would be London Fletcher...who will make it in (not first ballot, but after a few years). His stats are better than some think, and his health and longevity give him some Ripkin effect, also his time in Washington helps give him some extra media support (and if you pay attention he is often used by Washington at events where HOF are used, so I think there is a quiet support in the league and media for him)

Note I am answering players only....I think Vermiel could get in at some point.

So just want to say that I'm pretty fuckin pissed that Ike and this class will need to wait for induction. Bullshit IMO. They could easily control social distancing and allow for a media-driven event with the HoF members and their guests only allowed to attend. Fuck you HoF committee.
