Rushmore

[Crushzilla]

I really don't care much for ESPN's new sports Rushmore routine, but Tirico & Van Pelt brought up something interesting today.

Try to think of a Rushmore for your team. What four faces would go on the Steelers Rushmore? They warn, and I agree, that it is an excessive in futility.

And...

... it IS the offseason.

And...

... it IS the offseason.

I am watching ESPN right now, and they just revealed who would be on the PA Rushmore...did you happen to see it? The faces were....Joe Paterno, Mario L, Roberto Clemente, and Wilt Chamberlain.

For me the Steelers Rushmore would be:

Mean Joe Greene
Franco Harris
Jack Lambert
Terry Bradshaw

[HometownGal]

My 4 Steelers Rushmores would be:

Art Rooney, Sr. ("The Chief")
Mean Joe
Brad
Lambert

[memphissteelergirl]

"The Chief"
Harris
Lambert
Greene

Also for consideration:
Bettis
Ward

[devilsdancefloor]

Art Rooney, Sr
Chuck Noll
Jack Lambert
John Stallworth

[Steely McSmash]

The Chief
Cowher -- just for the chin
Lambert - -Maybe intall some kind of veiwing booth in the gaps in his teeth.
Bettis

[TailgateMel]

Art Rooney - started it all
Joe Greene - really is the picture of what a Steeler player should be
Chuck Noll - great coach that led to many other great coaches
Dan Rooney - made the team great & held the fort for so many years

Any other player other than Joe Greene really has its ups & downs and is impossible to choose between the rest.

[stlrtruck]

Art Rooney
Chuck Noll
Bradshaw
Lambert

The more I think of it, there's no way to just have one Mt Rushmore. We'd at least have to have 3 - one for owners/coaches, one for offense, one for defense.

With that in mind:

Owners/Coaches Rushmore:
Art Rooney
Dan Rooney
Chuck Noll
Bill Cowher

Offense:
Bradshaw
Franco
Ben
Ward

Defense:
Lambert
Greene
Shell
Woodson

[Indo]

Nothing against Shell----I LOVED watching him crack Earl Cambell's ribs...but I might be in favor of Troy instead...

You could split up the Defense Rushmore into:

D-line:
Greene
White
Hampton (but you gotta show his gut, not just his face!)
Keisel or Kimo

LBs:
Lambert
Ham
Harrison
Joey or Greene or ? (many good choices)

DBs
Troy
Blount
Shell
Woodson

[Stang909]

there are way to many great players to justify picking just 4

[KitsapSteve]

All Time (Steeler Rushmore)
Art Ronney (The Chief)
Franco Harris
Mean Joe Greene
Jack Lambert

Modern (Current Post Free Agent)
Big Ben
Jerome Bettis
Troy
Bill Cowher

[PisnNapalm]

I tried to pick the 4 most important but couldn't. It's an "excessive" in futility..... or rather and exercise in futility. There's just too many to choose from.

[BlastFurnace]

Rooney
Noll
Greene
Harris

[tony hipchest]

there is already a steelers Mt. Rush[no]more.

it is just called the Steel Curtain and forged in steel rather than south dakotan rock.

[StainlessStill]

Art ' The Cheif' Rooney
Dan Rooney
Mean Joe

Too close to call:
Franco Harris
Jack Lambert
Terry Bradshaw

90-00 era:
Jerome Bettis
Max Starks ( I joke)
Hines Ward

[HometownGal]

Isn't it just AWESOME having that dilemma? :thumbsup::tt03:

[Steeldude]

art rooney sr.

jack lambert

terry bradshaw

chuck noll

[Galax Steeler]

The Cheif

Lambert

Ward

Green

[Texasteel]

My 4 Steelers Rushmores would be:

Art Rooney, Sr. ("The Chief")
Mean Joe
Brad
Lambert

I like these four as well. They are the ones that pretty much started the Steelers winning traditon. I would like Noll in there too, but don't know who I would remove to get him in there.

Any list that doesn't have " The Chief " on it doesn't count.

[Buzz05]

The Chief
Emperor Chaz
Lambert
Bettis

[Dino 6 Rings]

art rooney sr.

jack lambert

terry bradshaw

chuck noll

I second this list

Art
Jack
Chuck
Terry

[4xSBChamps]

Art Rooney - started it all
Joe Greene - really is the picture of what a Steeler player should be
Chuck Noll - great coach that led to many other great coaches
Dan Rooney - made the team great & held the fort for so many years

Ah, yes. Touche, sir.

I also agree that it's too hard for me.

The Chief, however, is my only lock.

Would also be mine.

[HughC]

Is this a "Steelers Rushmore" or a "Pittsburgh Sports Rushmore"?


Steelers: Rooney, Lambert, Greene, Bradshaw

Pittsburgh: Clemente, Bradshaw, Lemieux, Greene


Tough call either way to narrow it down to four.
A lot of names that would be hard to argue against going in either list.

[SteelCityMan786]

Too Many to pick from.

Possibles for me

Past
The Chief
Lambert
Bradshaw
Swann

The Chief
Bradshaw
Harris
Lambert

The Chief
Lambert
Bradshaw
Greene

Too Many of the past

Modern Day
Dan
Harrison
Roethlisberger
Ward

Dan
Harrison
Bettis

Troy

many combos for me. Too many to pick just 4 and stay put to one.

[StainlessStill]

Tommy Maddox
Kordell Stewart
Neil O'donnell

At 3 of those 4 Players. lol!!!

[Curtain_of_Steel]

Rooney 6 rings +
Noll 4 rings
Bradshaw 4 rings
Roethlisberger 2 rings +

Without those 2 QB's we don't win.
Steel Curtain Def is a unit hard to pick anyone guy, especially after watching the docementary where Mike Wagner was the host.

Or we just list:

Steelers

In Steel, get rid of the rock, lol.

[markymarc]

My 4 Steelers players would be:

Art Rooney Sr
Myron Cope
Mean Joe Greene
