The NFL does a fantastic job in honouring it's former superstars - something that English sports could probably learn from.
With the Pro Football Hall of Fame, 371 players are currently enshrined - given a gold jacket and having a gold bust of themselves placed in the Hall of Fame building in Canton, Ohio.
Like many franchises across all their major sports, NFL teams have their own 'Ring of Honour' with the great players from the past having their names hung inside the stadium and in some cases their number retired. But with only a select few players entered into the Hall of Fame each year, many of legendary players are sometimes sadly forgotten as history goes on.
