One of those topics sports radio usually throws out during slow time in the offseasons...

MAX 4 faces, has to be from entire history of NFL. Presumably the standard is something like a) biggest impact on the game and b) a factor of recognition. Not looking for "Joe Wyzkzyzak invented the football in 1882."

For consideration:

Pete Rozelle
George Halas

I think those are pretty easy... then maybe a couple of more debatable ones...

Dan Rooney
Bill Walsh

If you want to add one, you have to take one off. I might consider Wellington Mara instead of Dan Rooney. For Bill Walsh's impact, consider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B..._Walsh_coaching_tree.

I might include Lamar Hunt and Curly Lambeau.

You can't claim to have gotten a 'private screening' just because you were the only person in the cinema.

Curly Lambeau (along with Halas) was in the very first group elected to the Hall of Fame in 1963. Walsh didn't make it in until 1993, Rooney in 2000. Lamar Hunt was inducted in 1972.
