Family “disappointed” after former Chiefs Lineman, who killed wife, has refused to place in Hof

The controversial Pro Football Hall of Fame candidacy by Jim Tyrer ended on Thursday, when the former Chiefs -Lineman, who killed his wife and himself in 1980, no longer learned the necessary voices in Canton, Ohio.

After Tyrer from Hall of Fame had disappeared from the consideration of Hall of Fame for more than 40 years, Tyrer’s name was brought back to the exam, which indicates that he decades ago before the idea became a regular part of the public discourse, may have suffered from football head trauma.

Tyrer’s children had supported his candidacy, and in a recent ESPN story, his son Brad said that he and his siblings knew the man who had committed the terrible action “was not our father”.

Brad Tyrer said that he and his siblings were “very disappointed” that her father did not come to the Hall of Fame, but be grateful for the people who consider his name again.

Tyrer was 182 former players who were originally nominated for the senior test, and he made it a number of new cuts before the Senior Committee selected him as one of three players. Together with a trainer and a candidate of participants, Tyrer was five men who fought three places.

The others were Mike Holmgren, who led the Packers to a super Bowl victory and trained 17 seasons in the league. former Packers Wide Receiver Sterling Sharpe; Maxie Baughan, one nine-time Pro Bowl linacker in the 1960s; And Ralph Hay, who was called the founding father of the NFL.

Sharpe was selected, but no other candidate received enough votes.

Tyrer was a dominant force for the chiefs in the American Football League in the 1960s and after the merger with the NFL in 1960 his eleven seasons in Kansas City. He made nine Pro Bowls, was added to the AFL all -time team and is in the Hall of Fame of Chiefs.

Tyrer seemed to be a safe bet to reach Canton, but that changed after the shocking news in September 1980 that he killed his wife and then turned the weapon on himself.

The statutes of the Hall are clear that voters should only be considered on the performance if they assess the earnings of a candidate, but it became clear and now-that some voters were not comfortable due to the external murder,, Select Tyrer.

“It wasn’t as if we were waiting to close or something,” Brad Tyrer told ESPN and realized that the voters were in a “difficult” situation. “But we just feel more about right and wrong, it is the right thing, because it should really be in it due to the current rules.”

His brother Jason said: “I am disappointed because I thought -field problems.”
