NFL snubs Terrell Owens from Hall of Fame; Didn’t even make the top 10
Terrell Owens should be pissed, the Hall of Fame is based on what you do on the field and tonight there is no way someone can tell me they looked at anything different than his character.
Unfortunately I did not make it. CONGRATS to the 2016 HOF CLASS. Thanks to ALL MY FANS for ur unwavering love & support. #ONLYGODCANJUDGEME

According to the Star Telegram, Terrell Owens, didn’t make the first cut from 15 to 10. His candidacy needed 43 minutes, 12 seconds – the longest of any modern-era candidate – despite his numbers.
Owens ranks sixth all time in receptions (1,078) and second in receiving yards (15,934) and receiving touchdowns (153).
I want to know what the voters were looking at? Honestly, Owens played with suspect quarterbacks his entire career, and still put up better statistics than anyone in the NFL. This is a sad day for the NFL, they really need to stop letting character get in the way of performance. This decision was CRIMINAL.
