He looks pretty bad, i don’t know if he’s even speaking anymore.  Does someone give a speech in his place?  Not sure what they do in these circumstances.

He can no longer speak. He can only blink his eyes (I believe it is once for yes and twice for no). His wife is helping him with the speech and will deliver it at the ceremony.

I assume Lovie Smith will present Hester. Any guesses for the other guys?

Sanders would be the main one I could see. Basically modeled himself after him, and he was a massive Fred Taylor fan IIRC. IDK why I keep thinking he was close to Forte and Tommie Harris too.

Hester should have been a first ballot hall of famer.  He changed the way teams play special teams.  I remember a few teams deliberately kicking the ball out of bounds just so Hester wouldn't score a touchdown.  

Glad all three got in.
