One of the clamp class of the fame of the smallest professional football in 20 years did not include several of the most important names for induction, being an omission the most notable in the eyes of fans.
On Thursday night, in the honors of the NFL, the 2025 class was announced with only four players sent to Canton, Ohio, to consult.
The Defensive Tackle Jared Allen, the defensive Eric Allen, the closed wing Antonio Gates and the open receiver Sterling Sharpe were included in this year's class.
However, among the notable names not included in the list one stood out among the rest: the former New York Giants Field Marshal, Eli Manning.
Manning is better known for winning the Super Bowl XLII and the Super Bowl XLVI, to overcome the New England patriots twice and win the respective MVP award of each championship game.
However, Manning does not have so many praise, high caliber statistics or professional consistency so that voters include it in the class of this year's hall. This was his first year of eligibility.

Eli Manning, who was willing to induction to the Hall of Fame, was not included in the class
Manning has won two Super Bowl titles, but did not get into its first possible vote
Eli was only named for four Pro Bowls in his career. He never led the League in aerial yards or aerial touchdowns (he did lead the league in interceptions three times), he was never appointed for an All-Rro team, and only reached the playoffs in six of his 15 seasons. It also has only seven winning seasons in that period and a career record of only 117-117.
Despite this, many fans were outraged because this year was not included in the class of this year's hall, and some called him the greatest breakdown of the night.
“How is Eli a member of the Hall of Fame in its first year of eligibility?”
Another fan published: “An absolute misfortune of the NFL that does not put Eli Manning in the Hall of Fame.”
A fan wrote: 'Eli Manning does not enter the Hall of Fame is an abomination. 2 Super Bowls and defeat the best team in the largest possible time. That only deserves acceptance.
'Imagine a QB that has 2 victories in the Super Bowl, 2 MVP of the Super Bowl, is 11 of all time in past yards and TDS that passes and, nevertheless, it is not a first member of the Hall of Fame. Eli Manning is still the most underestimated and misrepresented player of all time, “said another.
Another wrote: 'The greatest breakdown of the night. Deserving to be a first member of the Hall of Fame. @Elimanning #nflhonors'
'Eli Manning could be the only QB that is not given credit for his rings, although they only occur because of him. 100% should be a first vote, '' said another fan.
Some fans said that Manning, was left out of the Hall of Fame, was the 'biggest breakdown of the night'
Other important stresses included former supporter Luke Kuechly (L) and Pyesador Adam Vinatieri (R)
The protests of some fans are not enough for Manning, or some of the other important desaits, to enter Canton this year.
In fact, fans can say that Manning is the greatest desaira, but that honor could be more rightly awarded to the former Panthers supporter, Luke Kuechly, or the legendary kicking Adam Vinatieri.
Kuechly had a short race in just eight seasons, but his prize to the defensive player of the year in 2013, five selections all-PRO of the first team, seven pro-bowl selections and the inclusion in the All-Decade 2010 team of the NFL should be more than enough for him to make the hall.
As for Vinatieri, he is the leader of all NFL time at noted points and has the record of most consecutive field goals, most of the career goals of the race were made (and tried) most of the seasons with more than 100 points, and most of the combined games of the regular season and the postseason of any kicker.
Add its four Super Bowl championships (Super Bowls XXXVI, XXXVII and XXXIX with New England plus the Super Bowl XLI with Indianapolis), three first-team all-prion selections, three pro-Bowl settlements and its inclusions in the NFL 2000s all- The decade team and the team of all time of the 100th anniversary of the NFL, and it is clear that Vinatieri deserves an eventual inclusion.
