31. Cal Hubbard
Cal Hubbard fell in love with the small city of Green Bay when he played a road game there with the New York Giants and the story was that he demanded to be traded there and threatened retirement if it didn’t happen.  It did happen, and Hubbard was a major reason that Green Bay won the NFL Championship in 1929, 1930 and 1931.  Hubbard was also a three-time First Team All-Pro as a Packer and went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in the first ever class in 1963.  He also was part of Green Bay's inaugural Hall of Fame class in 1970.
