This is the time of year to plan for vacations and get ready for another NFL season. With former Seahawk center Kevin Mawae going into the Hall of Fame, Canton, Ohio, should be a great vacation destination in August. On Schooled with the Professor, we talked to Pete Fierle, the Chief of Staff and VP of Communications for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Pete went into great detail of what is available for the fans. There are plenty of things to do, from the first pre-season game, to the parade and the Saturday night enshrinement. Fierle talked about the selection process that I have been doing since 1988. He explains what we as voters go through every year. We go into the meeting the day before the Super Bowl with 15 modern day candidates. As Pete points out, more than 90 percent of them eventually get into the Hall of Fame. Each year, though, we have to say no to 10 of them and work on getting them back for the next selection. Fierle takes us through what a Hall of Famer goes through from the time he learns of his selection to the time he speaks at the enshrinement ceremony. We talk Hall of Fame on Schooled.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
