I just got the e-mail below from Gayle. This can't be correct. It's way, way too early to add him to the all-time rushers set. It would have to at least be put to a vote.

"My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

<< <i>A 2000 yard season is rare enough that maybe it should mean automatic addition. Or you could consider breaking the single-season yards from scrimmage record to warrant automatic addition.

There is no automatic inclusion. 10,000 yards in a career seems to be the minimum for modern players. One great season, and I wouldnt care if he got 3,000 yards, would not and does not make someone an all-time great IMO. Guy needs to do it on a consistent basis. Anyone can be a one hit wonder...
Gayle fixed this issue BTW. She meant to send the addition to the ANNUAL RUSHING LEADERS, which is exactly where the one huge season guys belong. No lines, no wait,and inclusion is automatic..Kinda strange only Topps cards were considered though...

Exactly. You might as well add Ickey Woods to the list. He did afterall have one big season.
