Maybe they'll open up a "Specialists Closet" in the Hall someday, not wing, closet and put the few players (Adam Vinatieri, maybe Ray Guy or Shane Lechler) that one could argue for in with Jan. I, along with many others, consider kickers and punters non-football players and rightly so when you watch 99% of them try to make a simple tackle but they do a play pretty important role in just about every football game each week.

All kidding aside, it is kind of weird that a position as critical to a game as punter doesn't have one representative in the Hall other than a guy like Sammy Baugh who was one of the greatest punters ever but is in for his arm.
