Ridiculous! Belichick fails to get into Pro Football Hall of Fame

[AlwaysWrite]

There are moments in sports when debate is not only unnecessary, but actively absurd. Bill Belichick not being inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility is one of those moments. It is not a controversy born of close judgment or evolving standards.

Belichick snub: 25 Hall voters who confirmed they voted for him, and 2 who voted 'no'​

It has been more than 48 hours since word first broke that Bill Belichick, the NFL's all-time leader in Super Bowl titles and playoff wins among head coaches, will not be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. That has proven to be a bit controversial.

Reactions to the news have skewed heavily toward outrage, from some of the biggest names of the football world and beyond. Making the situation even more contentious is an opaque and complicated voting process that might have incentivized some voters to leave Belichick off their ballot.

The decision to reject Belichick in his first year of eligibility for the Pro Football Hall of Fame came down to the selection committee, a room of 50 people, all media members from diverse backgrounds with representatives from all 32-team media contingents. Some members have been respected reporters for decades. Some were Hall of Fame players and coaches themselves.
