[quote Growing up in DC area in 70's and 80's I never met or saw a Packers fan. Saw very few Packers game on TV. During my youth, those who weren't Redskins fans in my area liked the Dolphins, Steelers, Raiders, and (yuck) the Cowboys. The Colts were nearby so they had their fans too. Also during th...

I often wondered as a kid in the 70's, why New Orleans and Atlanta were in the West. Kind of a head scratcher.

Also the roughing the passer calls, there was/always is a chance to gift Brady his usual free 15 and they didn't call it. There was one on Aaron Donald that wasn't called but definitely should have. (based on how they've been calling roughing the passer this season .) I LOVED that no call on Donald...

Loved the Super Bowl last night. I've always liked a defensive struggle and what a struggle it was. Both defenses kept their respective offense in the game, it would be a matter of which offense would be able to score a touchdown. he Patriots did, the Rams couldn't. After the 3rd Quarter, I was thin...

The real Mount Rushmore will never change. I think once you decide on your personal Mount Rushmore for something, then, boom, that is was it is. You have to pretend it like the real Mount Rushmore. You are absolutely right, as originally Baugh, Graham, Unitas, Montana, but I cannot overlook Brady a...

mine are same. I'm NOT a Patriots fan at all, but damn, it seems year after year he finds a way and gets it done. Though all this Greatest of All Time bullshit hype you hear on T.V. is just that. To me, the Greatest of All Time was Otto Graham, but that's just me and everyone has their own Greatest...

But if enough of you twist my arm enough, further educate me, I may (or still may not) be lured into replacing Bart Starr with one of those four.

Also agree Montana is better than Brady as is Graham.

mine are same. I was thinking the same John, but then, I don't know, just thinking that Brady has been doing it year after year, so I took out Baugh. I'm NOT a Patriots fan at all, but damn, it seems year after year he finds a way and gets it done. Though all this Greatest of All Time bullshit hype...

A few years back when we did Mt. Rushmore by position, the one for QB's, the consensus was Baugh, Graham, Unitas, Montana. With Brady going to his 9th Super Bowl - very impressive - but Graham went to 10 straight Title Games - and Brady still playing at a high level for an old guy, would Brady now b...
