Sterling Sharpe, a former NFL wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers, was inducted into the prestigious Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. Since his admission, Sterling, the older brother of former NFL tight end Shannon Sharpe, has become one-half of the first brothers to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.Shannon was inducted into the HOF with the class of 2011, following the conclusion of his 14-year NFL career with the Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens.The younger Sharpe shared his state of mind over his older brother's induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Monday, calling it the "proudest moment" of his life. Shannon captioned a slider of photos of him and Sterling at the HOF event with these words:"Last week, history was made. Two brothers from Glenville, Georgia, became the first brothers to ever be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But long before that moment, two brothers beat the odds. Two brothers graduated from grade school. Two brothers graduated from college. Two brothers made it to the NFL. Two brothers built beautiful families. Two brothers stayed close. Two brothers trusted God. Two brothers gave back. Two brothers led with love."This is the proudest moment of my life. Not because of the history. But because my story is now (HIS)story. Lord, if You don't do anything else, You have truly done enough for the Sharpe family."
