      Who will start the thread to remember to start the redundancy thread? Perhaps we have found a job for Slocum.

          I don't think you can refer to someone with their own private locker room as blue collar. If that is the requirement for you mount rushmore maybe you should remove one name and replace it with someone else...

            Removing Brett Favre from my list would be like cutting off a thumb.That's not happening.

                Favre played with both a sprained and broken thumb. If he could get by without it, so can Woody.

                    Lambeau, Hutson, Lombardi, Starr. And Torrance Marshall.

                      Feeling a little piled on, are you? My only problem with your list is that Lombardi isn't on it. I'm not sure how you can leave off the coach the league named their ultimate trophy after.

                      NFL record most seasons leading the league in touchdowns (9)
                      That was a record I was not aware of. I can't see that one ever being broken, RBs don't last long enough and I'm not sure a WR could dominate for that long.

                          That's who I voted for.
                          But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                                G. if I add Vince Lombardi I'd have to drop (Packer players) or either Ray Nitschke or Bart Starr and adding Lombardi and 'Curly' Lambeau would mean dropping both. Players win football games not coach's. Winning a particular game might mean winning a Championship.

                                Vince Lombardi already has been paid ultimate honours. Being a top ranked motivational NFL HC and one of the greatest NFL Legends/Icons in history having the Super Bowl trophy named after him.

                                The home of the Green Bay Packers is Lambeau Field named after another Packer Legend... Earl Louis 'Curly' Lambeau.

                                My Green Bay Packer Mt. Rushmore is about the Greatest Green Bay Packer players. They are definitely the four I named and backed up at NFL.Com as the four greatest Green Bay Packers in the TOP 100 All Time history of the NFL:

                                Again in order, I proudly report that they are from L >>> R:

                                Don Hutson - Brett Favre - Ray Nitschke - Bart Starr

                                Guiness: Your comment RE: Don Hutson's NFL record of most seasons leading the league in touchdowns at 9 seasons won't likely be broken. It's also impressive that he was an All Pro for eight (8) consecutive seasons. Don Hutson was in a class by himself when he played. You don't make the Top Ten All Time List of NFL - players unless you played exceptionally.

                                My four selections for the Green Bay Packers Mt. Rushmore are among the Top sixty (60) All Time NFL players.

                                Three other Green Bay Packers make that Top 100 List.

                                Who are they and at what position are they ranked? One is a Tackle, one a DB and the last a DE.

                                GO PACK GO !
