Is the NFL Hall of Fame for everybody? Deion Sanders and Terrell Owens seem to think so.

Following a questionable class of Hall of Fame entries this year, legendary defensive back Deion Sanders voiced his thoughts. He spoke at length to Well Off Media about how the HoF is becoming a free-for-all and now contains unworthy candidates. He said that many other members think the same way as him.

Sanders went on to say that only game-changers should be in HoF, rather than anybody who has had a good career.

As it turns out, Sanders was right about other HoFers feeling the same. Another recent member recently gave his thoughts. Wide receiver Terrell Owens tweeted that he feels the same way as Deion Sanders. He pointed out how many Hall of Fame members wouldn't look him in the eye last weekend. He tweeted:

"Facts!! I feel the SAME WAY. And half of them couldn’t even look at me or speak to me when I was there last weekend. I made it a point to let #DanDouts know how and what I felt about him and negative comments about me when I was nominated and didn’t make it 2016 & 2017."

Both of these Hall of Famers have the resumes to say what they want, but at the end of the day, it's unlikely to lead to substantial changes.
