The real question is which character gives his acceptance speech.

Two words: Eastern Motors

I'd put the odds of Clinton mentioning this great honor during one of his press conferences this season at 5-2.

perfection personified

I am totally dressing up as Bro Sweets for Halloween

Will, when I'm inducted I'd like my plaque to read something like this

Royal O'Reilly Tenenbaum (1932-2001) Died Tragically Rescuing His Family From The Remains Of A Destroyed Sinking Battleship

I love Clinton Portis.

Your plaque's your credit.

It's like someone took this plaque and said how much more Portis can this be? And the answer is none. None more Portis.

Look at how excited he was doing this commercial...just imagine him at the Hall of Fame inductions:

Hey Clinton Portis isn't the most intelligent person to come out of the U.

Drew Rosenhaus went there...oh wait...Roy Firestone went there...oh wait...Rick Berry went there...oh wait....Suzy Kolbert went there...oh wait...Slyvester Stallone went there.....

Maybe he's right....

Was he a theater major? That would be awesome

Easterns has once again crossed over to baltimore. the ray lewis spot is decent.

Allow myself to introduce...my...self

Let Eastern Motors
Put you in the HOF today

This is the best plaque yet. Jim Cooke is quickly catching Sam Potts as my favorite graphic designer.

omg, Caveman. anyone who makes a Sam Potts reference is golden in my book.

the gothamist is thataway

UM, does that mean the Shoe City spots have hit B'more as well?

My city...
Your city...
Shoe city...

How good does that trade for Champ look now?

And I was a huge Champ fan (still have two of his jerseys)

I think Clinton owes this glorious induction to his crazy-ass mom.

My No. 1 pick. I don't care which character shows up, as long as he scores twice and goes over 100.

what's the over/under on the number of new characters he creates this season?

Champ was almost as overrated as Lavar.

I feel bad for the rest of you who haven't had the pleasure of seeing an Eastern Motors commercial. It is especially funny when they show one with an injury-plagued Lavar Arrington behind the wheel of an Escalade.

If Warren Sapp can make it on Wild-n-Out this week, isn't there another outlet for our man Portis' comedic genius?

Wanna bet Clinton's Mom beats the piss outta Carl Monday at the induction ceremony when he follows her into the bathroom?

79% final tally is a crime. "Dr. I Don't Know," people!

Portis could be the new Crocodile Hunter. Maybe?

There are no careers in improv comedy.

Today, I feel like a child on Christmas morning--the glee as each new plaque is revealed, and the anticipation of the next...

A wonderful, warm feeling--this is the best Deadspin day EVER!

Ermm, is there any big story over the last year that didn't make the Hall of Fame?

Wells, have you read this site in the last 2 weeks?

So, that Eastern Motors commercial? Sorry, but us Chitown folks get lame Boyz II Men rip offs and some K-Fed looking motherfucker yelling at us for our cheap ass car commercials.

But that? It's like Clinton is the Flavor Flav to the Nate Dogg that is Lavar Arrington and Carmelo (No snitches!) Anthony is the Raekwon the Chef of the whole crew.

Sweet ass.

I guess the Chicago version has Ben Wallace singing the hook, Zumbrano doing the crazy dance behind the wheel and Peanut Tillman falling behind on the cadence.

I was seriously depressed when I didn't get the chance to draft Clinton in my fantasy league after vowing that I would make him a part of my team after last year.

Seriously, last year was by far my favorite NFL season ever. Clinton's characters, the TD celebrations of Chad Johnson (and to a lesser extent Steve Smith and others), the Sex Boat, the Panther cheerleaders, hell, even the Ron Mexico fiasco was before last season. Oh yeah, and the Seahawks had their best season ever too.

This year is going to be one big letdown, I can tell.

Clinton knows the password is Fidelio.

Anyone who has a stripper pole in his house is all right by me.

(In theory, at least.)

Earlier today I posted the Redskins relevant portions of Michael David Smith's 32 best draft picks of all time. Heading into the Draft at the end of this month, everyone and their mother (and her mother too) publishes one or two or a hundred of these lists, and The Worldwide Leader is no exception.
