Pick the Packer's Mt. Rushmore

[pbmax]

PFT is doing a series on four players or coaches to be on the Mt. Rushmore for each team in the League.

That is the link for the Packer nominations.

Most common is Lombardi, followed by Lambeau. Next is Starr then probably a rough tie between Hutson and Favre.

However, some substitute others for one of those and select Nitschke or Reggie White. Saw one vote for George Calhoun and one for Bob Harlan.

Lambeau
Lombardi
Starr
Harlan

Harlan was the man behind the facilities upgrades that made GB a respectable place again. He brought in Wolf and TT. He recognized mistakes in Sherman as GM and Jones as President to be, and saw that they were corrected. He modernized the stadium.

Lambeau
Lombardi
Starr
Harlan

Oooh I wanted to trade Harlan for Nitschke, but without Harlan Green Bay would have been 80's bad through the 90's.

[Patler]

Actually, for what the Packers are, it should be:

Lambeau as a founder
Lombardi for coaches
Starr representing players
A nondescript human form representing the owner/fans.

You mean this guy?

As much as the guy has pissed me off the past few years #4 has to be on there.

You mean the Viking quarterback?

That's an odd choice.

If Lambeau, Lombardi and Starr are givens, leaving you to pick one from:

Harlan
Wolf
Favre
White
anyone else

would you pick Favre? My picks would be in the above order, top to bottom, first to last for the final spot on Mount Packer.

Lambeau
Lombardi
Hutson
Starr

Tough choices. You could make an argument for Favre, White, Wolf, Harlan, and Nitschke. I'd pick Favre as a slightly better player than Starr, but Starr won more and he also has a reputation as one of the finest individuals to ever walk the planet. For a Mount Rushmore of the franchise, I want Bart representing the Green & Gold. To me, Hutson is a no brainer (the Babe Ruth of WRs, great two way player, classy, and the Pack won several championships in his time).

Ed "Toolbox" West

and

Chastin "Toolbelt" West

both legendary Packers. One had a very short yet brilliant time with Green Bay.

Taco Wallace in a horse race over those two!

Lambardi and Starr are the two shoo-ins for me. Since it's something that immortalizes the honorees, Lambeau - the stadium is named after him! I like the mention of Harlan, but he's not exactly a household name. Can we put a list on the mole hill, representing the season ticket waiting list?

Washigton, Lincoln and Jefferson have pretty significant structures in their memory, but are on Mount Rushmore too.
Not sure how much of a household name Teddy Roosevelt was at the time he was selected for Rushmore. Not saying he wasn't, just don't know. I don't think he was the status of the other three, anyway.

[smuggler]

Not my Mt. Rushmore, but here are some suggestions:

Blood McNally, Ray Nitschke, Don Hutson, Forrest Gregg

[RashanGary]

I'll be fine with Favre in the Packer HOF. I do think he'd belong on the Mt. Rushmore of Packers, if you went on play alone.

After the way it went down, him seeking out the Vikings to beat the Packers. His spirit was not with the Packers, it was to beat the Packers. That's a lasting memory of Favre. I just don't think he's a Packer anymore.
