Saunders: Is Rockies great Todd Helton Hall of Fame worthy?

Todd Helton and the Hall of Fame have been on my mind.

Last weekend, I watched 50 baseball legends line up for a group photo on the hotel lawn in front of glimmering Lake Otsego in Cooperstown, N.Y.

Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson, Johnny Bench, Ken Griffey Jr., Hank Aaron, Greg Maddox … the list of baseball royalty went on and on. It is indeed a select, prestigious group who have their plaques mounted in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Saturday in Canton, Ohio, former Broncos running back Terrell Davis was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
