I was thinking about it, and I don't know as much as I'd like to about the 4 Horsemen. I know the famous picture of the four of them mounted on horses and I've seen some of the old video, but I've always thought these four guys were nearly mythical in nature. What does everyone know/think about the horsemen?

Coach,
A little interesting information about Crowley. He was coached in High school by Curly Lambeau in Green Bay. After his playing career he became a coach at Fordham, where he coached the "seven blocks of granite", one of those young men was Vince Lombardi, who obviously became a great coach himself in Green Bay. Interesting how things work out.

I got my information from Vince Lombardi's biography "When Pride Still Mattered". It is a great read.
