I never really read his whole story which is kinda sad since I am a lifelong Vikings fan and now having lived in Nebraska for nearly 20 years. He was a guy I never saw play I just heard he was really good and should be in the HOF and it's finally happened. It's quite the legacy the Vikings have had at that position with a lot of really good players.

Yeah, it's really terrific news that Mick is going into the Hall. Great guy, and never missed a game as an undersized center. I have never been a big fan of Fran Tarkenton as a guy, but he has always been a loyal friend to Tingelhoff, and Mick would have never gotten in if Fran hadn't constantly lobbied for him.
