Kurt Warner Momentos Headed to HOF

Remember Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner’s record-setting 24-of-26 passing performance Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars? Of course you do. His 92.3 completion rate surpassed the previous mark set by Vinny Testaverde of the Cleveland Browns back in 1993 (Vinny was 21-of-23). Well, Kurt’s jersey and a football from the Cardinals’ win will be shipped to Canton, OH and placed on exhibit in the Hall’s Pro Football Today Gallery.

I was at the Hall of Fame last week and it’s one of my happiest places to be. I am there every August to work at the annual Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Ceremony—which is a tremendous honor—but it’s also the busiest day of the year at the Hall. And I’m working. So that means I don’t have much of an opportunity to look around and enjoy the museum. On my visit last week, I was able to roam around on a relatively quiet Wednesday afternoon at my leisure and truly enjoy what an amazing place this is. If you’ve never been there, by all means put that on your bucket list and spend a day at the Hall.

Anyway, back to Kurt Warner—he is becoming well represented in the Pro Football Hall of Fame:
