Right now, Hines Ward’s Hall of Fame chances don’t look very good. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride, Ward has had several finishes as a semifinalist but eluded the final ballot, let alone elected to Canton, Ohio. But there’s at least one non-Pittsburgh based writer who believes Ward’s name should be immortalized.
Sportswriter Gary Myers joined the 93.7 The Fan’s Cook & Joe Show Friday and was asked his perspective on Ward’s candidacy. While in the minority, Myers said he votes for Ward every chance he gets.
“I’ve been voting for him probably the last three, four years,” Myers told the show.
