    You would have figured that GSH would have give more responsibilities to "Mugs." Wasn't he president of the organization in the 1970s when Papa Bear retired until his death in 1979?

    Yes Dags he was but you don't send the heavies to the draft. It's not all that dignified to be the guy who ferry's the card up to the podium is it? Currently the Bears send their Equipment Manager, Tony Medlin.

    In those days there were no GM's so GHS and Mugs manned the "War Room" and sent the picks along to NY where in this case the draft pick "flunkie" was Ed McCaskey who, as you read, lost the flip for Terry Bradshaw. Maybe we would have won a couple of those 70's SB's if he'd have won.
    I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.

    Yeah, but then we would have never gotten players like Walter Payton or the rest of the crew from the teams in the 1980s. We wouldn't have had the high picks to get those guys that a team like Pittsburgh wound up with.
