2021 Hall of Fame Knocks Around the Country *Extended Version*
Спорт
Nothing can stop Hall of Fame President & CEO David Baker from Knocking on the Door of the newest members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not even COVID-19. Due to not being able to gather in a hotel at the Super Bowl like in years past, this year the Hall of Fame & NFL Network had to fly around the country in 4 days to deliver 8 Knocks on the Door to some of the greatest men to ever play, coach & administer the game.
Videos were edited by HOF Productions team members, Eric Welshenbaugh & Kara Kwiecinski-Moeller.

Whoever came up with this knock on the door series needs a raise.
David Baker has made more men cry tears of joy than Maury Povich
The plane also takes a deep breath and cries when it sees David Baker walking up to it
Megatron could get on the field today and still dominate. Lions did him dirty. Such a good dude on the field and off.

Can you believe Megatron is only 36. He retired young at age 30. I think he is now the youngest member in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Jonathan Ogden was the youngest.

They did Barry dirty too, and he also walked away early.

They did the same thing to Barry Sanders.
I know he says the same thing to each player and coach but i love how genuine it feels.
It always brings me to tears when the old guys get there knock before they’ve passed. Giving someone their flowers while they are around to see, hear, and feel it is wonderful ❤
When he knocks and you hear screaming from MANY voices before the door even opens- that never gets old
I met David Baker at lunch. He's huge in both stature and Heart. So kind and caring ✅
I want David Baker’s job when he retires!😀

Ikr.. last 2 times I’ve cried in my life was Peyton’s retirement speech and his HOF speech
I´m particularly happy to be the first to comment, specifically for coach Flores. Two time SB winner with those rascals. Unbelievable.
Calvin Johnson was one of my favorite players. He's so humble, so glad he is in the HOF!
Once a raider always a raider baby congrats Charles
Drew has me crying so hard! What a sweet man 😭
Charles Woodson’s mother will all be referred too as Mama Woodson at the U! She was the reason he didn’t leave in his sophomore year. Coach called Mama Woodson and set him straight! Go Blue!
Think of this moment, these men dedicated their lives to the sport, sacrificed things we couldn't imagine, and now, years after they're retired, they are recognized and celebrated as the leagues best to ever play the game. Congrats to all inductees.
Peep how he greets Tony Dungy vs the rest of them, always gonna be a colt at heart🥲
That’s one bad ass job
The Iceman Coach Flores!!
I'm so happy that the HOF got Tom Flores in before he passed, now Cliff Branch needs to get in.
Bill Nunn recommended the Steelers draft John Stallworth, Donnie Shell, Frank Lewis, Joe Gilliam, Glenn Edwards, Ernie Holmes, LC Greenwood, Dwight White, Mel Blount, among others. Anybody that helps draft three hall of fame players should be in canton and it’s long overdue

He was a link between the Steelers and the small Black colleges across the nation.
Evan Morgan Freeman's voice couldn't have been any better for this.
One thing about all the greats is there incredible memories and intention to detail. It tells me that appreciated every moment IYKYK!

I love this!!I played football, youngster and highschool 3 positions...I had to sacrifice EVERYTHING to quit because of family issues! I never got to play NFL..and I learned about the GOLDEN JACKET at a early age💎 taking care of my grandparents after my Mother and Uncle died (my grandparents kids)..I had to stop and sacrifice everything to take care of them both...I wish I could get a knock on the door saying..."what you did and had to do was selfless!..and they are looking at you from heaven and are proud of you...."...we might not have a gold jacket for you but here is at least a gold pin or recognition 💎💎 I love you grandma and grandpa..I would do it all over again if I had too!..drop everything to take care of you!💎💎!!
Wow all these houses look much nicer than mine...
David Baker gets them every time. 😢
Well deserved coach Flores long time coming!!!!
The very thing they’ve ever worked for comes down in the simplest form in the end, recognition, it’s a wild feeling to see our idols and childhood hero’s and inspirations reach the tip top of everything they have worked for, I believe it makes us all emotional because that’s all we want in the end, to be recognized for the work, sacrifice, contributions we make in this life. Watching the knock or the speeches to get that kinda reminder for myself never gets old
As much as I love all of these guys!! They made my early 20’s as a football fan the most inspiring and entertaining moments in my life! 2028 will be Tom Brady! The first ballot hall of fame! Just like all the guys in this video that I’ve showed my sons! This is the kind of man that you want to be like! Congratulations guys!!! Much love from a lifelong football fan!
I’m so glad Drew Pearson finally made it! I was a huge fan when I was a kid! So glad it finally happened!

He does and he always has. As someone who was privileged to experience his entire career at Tennessee as a kid, and got to meet him several times, he has always been that guy. Grandad had season tickets and we never missed a trip to Neyland to watch Peyton. Wish he could have lived three years longer to see Peyton inducted.
Megatron baby
I love to see their family with them through this...I have no family left!...this is a true GEM 💎!
Love Peyton Manning what a legend
A lifetime of the hardest working you could possibly witness, culminating in this knock on the door must be the biggest release of emotion by these guys. I love this series.
What a feeling of must be told your being inducted into the Pro Hall Of Fame. But when will HOF and knock on Jim Plunkett w 2 SB, Cliff Branch 3 SB, Dave Dalby, Matt Millen 2 SB, and host lots Raiders and other teams with players with multiple SB rings. Please give them their honor FBHOF.
I’m not crying, you are. Awesome
The Lions organization had two players that retired in their prime make into the HOF 😂
To this day i cant believe my childhood best friend made it to the nfl man quan my boy im proud of you tell momma tammy i love her
Great because started of as Raiders and ended up as a Raiders 1 SB ring.
I love David Baker. He has that, I'm not mad at you I'm disappointed in you, dad vibe going on. It's awesome.
Glad Faneca finally made it. well deserved
Honestly from the eye test I can think of nobody more deserving of the HOF than Calvin Johnson glad his greatness was forever recognized
Calvin Johnson...GOAT!
my man was drinking that Pepsi like it was something a little extra in there
He still had alot of game left in him but his is a different beast Megatron
Only 1 percent of college football players turn pro and less than 1 percent become hall of famers! A life time of work being recognized
21:35 THIS RIGHT HERE IS WHY WE ALL MUST NEVER COMPLY WITH SUCH NONSENSE AS "NO HUGS ALLOWED". HUG HUG HUG HUG HUG. NEVER STOP SHOWING LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THE ONES YOU LOVE MOST BY EMBRACING THEM WITH A HUG DURING ANY MOMENT IT REQUIRES.
hello guys i am an australian aboriginal. drew Pearson thoroughly deserved, you legend
all these guys played back when football was real
💎!!!!!
Calvin Johnson coulda played in the NFL with a gold jacket
good video and all just could be better without the music in the back ground, grant it copy rights and all but still
Megatron. almost made me cry. he is an incredibly well spoken man. and i love seeing the emotion.
Said on another thread Is there a better job?
At least it wasn't Omaha lol
My entire goal in my short football life Was to play for Pittsburgh Steelers 💎💎💎💎💎
Covid era knocks look so ridiculous
