Nice to see Zimmerman make the mark, I can't remember what jersey they go in under.
He played the most years with the Vikings, but finished his career with the Broncos.
Either way, glad to see him in there.

I believe they go in on the jersey of their choice.

His HOF card had him in a Broncos jersey

So it'll come down to most years with Vikings vs. winning superbowl XXXII with the Broncos

Congrats to all the electees especially two Vikes. (Zimm and Emmitt).

Well deserved.

Big 64 will get in next year as well as CC. Two players ahead of them (Zimm and Art) kept them out.

Emmitt??? The ballboy must have misinformed you, best I can tell is he played against the Vikes in the SB.
Maybe my mind is gone.

As Marr tells you if you read a little further, he referred to him being on the defensive coaching staff 2000-01

Edit: That's over in Carters thread where singer called him on the same thing.

Oh, that makes me feel better.
It seems much more plausible that my memory is fading.

The Pro Football HoF does not feature players in a jersey of anything.
They have busts and all teams for which they played are listed.
The team for which they were a major contributor is highlighted.
With Zimmerman, I have to assume that BOTH the Vikings and Broncos will be highlighted, as he was an All-Pro for both teams.
Not sure if that's the case for anyone else.
