NFL | LaDainian Tomlinson would chose HOF over a ring

Former NFL RB LaDainian Tomlinson said he would rather be a Hall of Fame player without a Super Bowl ring than a Super Bowl champion without a place in Canton, Ohio. "I feel like you've got to sacrifice so much individually just to be good," Tomlinson said. "Now, they draft you individually, and you've got to back them up and make them right. I think at the end of the day, even though I didn't win a Super Bowl ring, I felt like I backed them up for drafting me. I backed the San Diego Chargers up for picking me with the fifth pick (in 2001)." Tomlinson is eligible for the Hall of Fame in 2017.
