The man who found the talent for a dynasty.

Vainisi would be voted in as a contributor which would have absolutely no influence on Kramer's chances.

Jack deserves better recognition. Hall of fame surely!

 

[JBlood]

Vainisi deserves membership in the HOF as a contributor just as much as Kramer does as a player.

I put in a request to Wikipedia a few days ago to add a page for Jack Vainisi, with a few words describing his credentials. If the process of adding and annotating an entry was less inscrutable to this uninitiate, I might have added it myself.

We'll see what happens.

Here's a nice summary of Vainisi's contributions to the Packers: http://host.madison.com/sports/jack...cle_3965e117-959a-524a-8e98-8de214462d21.html

David Maraniss' biography on Lombardi, "When Pride Still Mattered", has a lot about Vainisi as well. It is must reading for anyone interested in Packers history as well.

Both should be in and both face similar uphill battles. If the Packers properly respect the legacies of both men, and teach fans about their contributions, then I am a happy man. Trying to convince others about their worth is a worthy effort but just topping on the cupcake. We know what they meant to the Packers and that is the main battle.

My comment about nut jobs comes from other commenters here who believe a scout should go into the hall before Kramer. That must make us crazy! But as far as Kramer NOT being in the hall, I don't get it. That's truly crazy.

That scout is as responsible for those titles as anyone.

if you want to talk about him make a new thread

Stop acting like kids

Anyone else have issue with me cleaning up the thread?

 

[HardRightEdge]

You missed what was post #10 after the clean-up. I took care of it for you. Evidently nobody found it to be funny.

Hell ban me for life. I am 62 years old how much longer do I have to live anyway?
If Vainisi ever has a campaign to get into the Hall I will join along with any other Packers. As of right now I only know about Jerry Kramer's campaign.
So No Forum for me! GO PACK GO!
NOW ADMIN's DO YOU JOB!!!
