Jerry Kramer Nominated As Finalist For Pro Football Hall Of Fame

Why would it be? The book wasn't about that one play.

No, it was the story of that whole championship team.

The title of the book was about the replays of Jerry's block.

It's a great book, Schaap and Jerry did a fantastic job on that work and it's great tale of the Lombardi Packers.

That book was one of the many reasons that Kramer was not elected to the HOF back in the day (when he deserved it).

Many of the voters felt he had gotten enough acclaim bc of the book.

It's interesting how that works. For his own turn, many thought Bowman was kept from some pro bowl selections because of his involvement the players union, which wasn't too popular back then.

I didn't mean to seem so down on Kramer. He's really quite a guy. He's very kind and generous - one of those very large personalities of yesteryear who you love to just sit next to and hear tell stories. I've had two chances to do that and it's just great.
