Long road back Hall inductee Webster trying to rebuild his life; Hall of Fame Profiles A look at the four newest members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame: DON SHULA The winningest coach in NFL history, in 33 years with the Baltimore Colts and Miami Dolphins, Shula was 347-173-6, a winning percentage of .665. Shula coached in a record six Super Bowls (2-4), winning with Miami in the 1972 and 1973 seasons, losing in the '68 season (with Baltimore) and in the '71, '82 and '84 seasons with the Dolphins. In 1972, he led the Dolphins to the only perfect record in NFL history (17-0), and they won the Super Bowl, 14-7, over Washington. From 1964-1985, his teams finished first or tied for first 17 times. Only twice in 33 years did he have a losing season. His teams reached the playoffs 20 times and won 10 or more regular-season games 21 times. Shula, who surpassed George Halas as pro football's winningest coach on Nov. 14, 1993, in Philadelphia, was the youngest coach to win 100, 200 and 300 games. He retired after the 1995 season. For 20 years, he served as a member of the NFL's influential competition committee. Shula played defensive back for Cleveland for two years, then was part of a 15-player deal, the largest in NFL history, in 1953, sending him to Baltimore. He played four seasons with the Colts and one for Washington. In 1963, he succeeded Hall of Fame coach Weeb Ewbank in Baltimore, and was hired by Miami in 1970. He will be introduced by sons David and Mike, both of whom coached in the NFL. WELLINGTON MARA A part of the NFL since he was 8, Mara becomes the first son of a Hall of Famer to join his father in Canton. Son of the late Timothy J. Mara, the New York Giants' founder and Pro Football Hall of Fame charter member, Wellington Mara has been president of the team since 1965. Under his ownership, the Giants have won two Super Bowls (in the 1986 and '90 seasons) and moved into the state-of-the-art Giants Stadium 20 years ago. Today, that stadium still is considered one of the finest in pro sports. Mara began working for the Giants as team secretary in 1937 and became vice president in 1945. He served with Shula on the NFL's competition committee and has been president of the NFC since 1984. He was also instrumental in developing the current collective bargaining agreement. He will be introduced by Frank Gifford, whom Mara introduced in 1977. MIKE HAYNES The fifth overall pick in the 1976 draft by New England, Haynes was considered the best 1-on-1 coverage man in the game. He played seven seasons with the Patriots (twice an All-Pro) and led them in interceptions three times. He also led the AFC with 608 yards on punt returns in his rookie season. Haynes had 28 interceptions for New England and 18 more for Oakland. He made two more All-Pro teams with the Raiders and played in eight Pro Bowls. He also recovered 12 fumbles and had 112 punt returns for 1,168 yards and two touchdowns. He will be introduced by former agent Howard Slusher. MIKE WEBSTER Nobody epitomized the hard-nosed attitude of Pittsburgh football more than Webster, who did not miss a game for 10 straight seasons. At one point, he played in 177 consecutive games and appeared in 245 in 17 years with the Steelers. Webster anchored the outstanding offensive line in all four Super Bowl championship years. He replaced Ray Mansfield, then considered the greatest of all Pittsburgh centers, and surpassed his achievements. The eighth man honored from the Steelers' dynasty of the '70s, he played in nine Pro Bowls and was elected offensive team captain nine times. After retiring in 1988, he changed his mind and played two seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs. Webster has had some rough times since then, including being unemployed and living out of a car for a short period. He will be introduced by Terry Bradshaw.
