THE HALL OF FAMERS

ELVIN BETHEA
Class of 2003 . Houston Oilers
An eight-time Pro Bowl selection, Bethea played in 210 games during his long career in Houston. He was named first- or second-team All-AFL/AFC six times and second-team All-Pro four times. Considered a leader both on and off the field, Bethea was durable and dependable. He started at defensive end in the 1968 season opener and didn't miss a game until breaking his arm in a game against the Oakland Raiders on November 13, 1977. When he retired he held three team records relating to career service: most seasons (16), most career regular season games played (210), and most consecutive regular season games played (135).

JOE DeLAMIELLEURE
Class of 2003 . Buffalo Bills
In the 1970s, Joe DeLamielleure and his Buffalo Bills offensive line mates were dubbed the "Electric Company," because they "turned the Juice loose." The "Juice" of course was Hall of Fame running back O.J. Simpson. An All-America and three-time All-Big Ten performer at Michigan State, "Joe D" was selected in the first round of the 1973 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. Joe went on to win All-Rookie honors. Eight times during his career he was selected first or second team All-Pro; seven times he was named first or second team All-AFC, and six times he was named to the Pro Bowl. In 1975, the NFL Players Association named him Offensive Lineman of the Year. DeLamielleure, who was named to the NFL's 1970s All-Decade Team, finished his career in 1985 with a final season back where it had begun, in Buffalo.

TOM MACK
Class of 1999 . Los Angeles Rams
An All-America at Michigan in 1965, Tom Mack was the No. 1 pick of the Rams in the 1966 NFL Draft. He never missed a game during his 13 star-studded seasons with the Los Angeles Rams from 1966 through 1978. At the time of his retirement, his 11 Pro Bowl games ranked him in a third-place tie with Bob Lilly and Ken Houston among those with the most appearances in the post-season classic. Olsen ranked first with 14 Pro Bowl appearances and is followed by Jim Otto with 12. Mack was also allpro or All-NFC nine times in a ten-year span from 1969 through 1978.

KENNY HOUSTON
Class of 1986 . Houston Oilers & Washington Redskins
Houston excelled as the premier free safety of his era in a 14-year span that began with the 1967 Houston Oilers who drafted him in the ninth round of the AFL-NFL draft. After excelling for six years with the Oilers, Ken was traded to the Redskins for five veteran players in 1973. He won all-league acclaim with the Oilers in 1969 and 1971, and then was either All-Pro or All-NFC with the Redskins every year from 1973 to 1979. He was selected for either the AFL All-Star game or the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl 12 straight seasons from 1968 through 1979. Houston assured himself of a spot in the NFL record book by returning nine interceptions for touchdowns for the Oilers. He also tied two other records with four TDs on steals in one season and two interception touchdowns in a single game.

JAN STENERUD
Class of 1991 . Kansas City Chiefs
Stenerud kicked for the Chiefs for 13 years from 1967 until 1979, later signing for four seasons with the Packers. In 1984, the Packers traded Stenerud to the Minnesota Vikings. Stenerud is the first "pure" placekicker to enter the Hall. With 1,699 points, he ranked behind only George Blanda in all-time scoring at the time of his retirement. His 373 career field goals and seven seasons of scoring 100 or more points were also NFL records. A six-time all-league selection, Stenerud played in two AFL All-Star games and in four AFC-NFC Pro Bowls. He was named the Outstanding Offensive Player in the 1972 Pro Bowl.
