The various AFC Mt. Rushmores will get a lot more interesting at 5:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, when we select four Patriots for placement on their hill of immortality.

It’ll happen on NBCSN’s Pro Football Talk.

Pats fans and Pats anti-fans alike will be ready to vote for (or not for) certain specific figures who fueled the team’s run of three Super Bowl wins in four years, especially in light of the Spygate scandal and the associated arguments and/or conspiracy theories it spawned.

But despite the efforts of some to nominate men like Matt Walsh for the honor, the Pats’ still have their titles -- if not all of their rings.

And the best part about the Mt. Rushmore honor is that the winners get nothing tangible. Which gives heads of state one less thing to steal.
