The Pro Football Hall of Fame should not be for 'very good' players

What I would say is it, shouldn't be hard to make it into the hall of fame. Absolutely. It's not the whole of very, very good. And I love it. It's the hall of fame.

This is a philosophical stance on the standards of a museum/honor.

Cam Newton has to retire after his performance against the Bills

The Buffalo bills, our fucking weapon, Josh Allen, when in Foxborough beat what was left with the Patriots Cam Newton I mean, I think he has to retire. I don't really know what at this point, it, it, it was sad.

Cam Newton did not retire. He played for the Patriots for the rest of 2020 and signed with the Panthers during the 2021 season.

The Buffalo Bills will beat the Chiefs in the playoffs and go to the Super Bowl

I think that the Buffalo bills could very well beat the Chiefs. In fact, it definitely can. I think that the Buffalo bills will beat the chiefs in the playoffs. Wow. I'm going to be the first. I'm going to be the first that I heard. Say it to say it. Okay. The Buffalo bills are going to the super bowl.

The Bills did reach the AFC Championship game but lost to the Chiefs 38-24. They did not make the Super Bowl.

Dwayne Haskins will start another game in the NFL

I guarantee you, I will bet you a thousand dollars that [Haskins] will start another game. It might be a situation where he's a back up and gets in at the start because of an injury.

Dwayne Haskins never started another NFL regular season game. He signed with the Steelers in 2021 but was a backup. He tragically passed away in April 2022 before ever starting again.

Larry the Goldfish is officially admitted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame archives

We can certainly put him in the archives... we will take good care of it. Preserve it... he will be included in the archives of the Hall of Fame.

David Baker made this commitment on air and Larry 2's betting record was indeed sent to the archives.

Peyton Manning's Hall of Fame debate only lasted 10 seconds

He knew it, it took 10 seconds for him to get in the hall of fame. You know, Mike Chapple from Indianapolis did his presentation. And I think all he said was Peyton Manning dropped the mic. Yeah. And, and, and he, he didn't have to make the presentation. Everybody knew he was going to.

Baker is the ultimate authority on these meetings. It is a well-documented story that the Manning presentation was incredibly brief.

Olivia Manning is effectively a Hall of Fame 'contributor' for her role in her family's success

I feel like Olivia Manning should be nominated for the hall of fame as a contributor... [Baker]: Olivia and... frankly, her mom was a world-class sprinter, you know? So I think he [Christian McCaffrey] got some speed from her... Olivia and I, and again, I got to tell you... I've always regarded him [Archie] as one of the great fathers.

This is a subjective tribute to mothers of athletes.
