That picture's from his last season in 1986 - he was 40 and looked to be 65.

Since 1990 or so, most balding players have shaved their heads, so they don't stand out much any more.
How about Ed Reed?

I like this exercise, because it's not one you can just Google and answer easily. You've got to go from memory.
Here's one from a football card I just recalled from when I was a kid:
I can't believe Grey Ruegemer was left out.

About being bald. It does however make me happy that I never had Mel Renfro over for dinner.

Maybe he should have included 7 and gone with Nitschke, as well?
If his deadline had been later, he could have had a Top 10!
