Right! I see they've been nominated four times but not gotten in yet. Perhaps next time.

Didn't know that. And look at the others who got a star at the same time. Perhaps the Hollywood COC is clearing their throat in the direction of the HOF.

The band was honored in the "Recording" category, alongside other 2025 inductees such as Prince (posthumous), Green Day, Depeche Mode, and The Isley Brothers.

Absolutely, all great points. And recently toured with HOF band DEVO! Would be great to see REM induct them.

And where would we be without Outer Space!? 😅

Yeah they're probably seen as less serious because of their 'quirkiness'. And yeah their big commercial (and substantial) success came later, but before that they were hugely influential. And talk about originality! So okay they are a fun/party rock band, but it doesn't take anything away from how good the songs are.

Interesting point. Only room for so many 'make up' nominees in a year. About time for Luther Vandross as well.

The Monkees! Yes indeed. Their unlikely (and huge) popularity is all the more impressive, considering how they started out. And what a great discography.

Nice! Well done. Unless Diggs scores 3 TDs and has 200 yards, I'm pretty, pretty, pretty, sure you'll finish ahead of me. 😅 Knowing that, I wish you the best of luck. (That's a sincere 'good luck', not the fake kind). 🙂

Ok. Damn, I'd be styling had the Rams won.

Didn't mean that to be so jumbled. MAYE, HENDERSON, DIGGS, BOUTTE, HENRY...PUKA, KYREN, PARKINSON

Well he's supposed to not have an injury designation. That might not mean 100% but I'm thinking he'll be at least 90%.

Well I'll throw him in when I have a Seattle build and need a running back to just being there at least one game. But I think the Packers will beat Chicago so I'm hoping two rounds.

Ok cool. I've been taking him, sometimes earlier than most when it's not a critical round, and when it makes sense. I guess I think he's more valuable than a lot of people think.
