Default Villages mushrooms

I'm sure you all have seen the big mushrooms growing just about everywhere. When I was a kid, my father would take my brother and I mushroom picking in the woods around our hometown of Weirton, West Virginia. Sometimes we would get a whole trunk full. In those days, I knew what we picked and could identify them. But today, I have lost anything I ever knew.

I don't want to pick and eat the Villages mushrooms, but I am curious if anybody knows what they are and if they would be edible if they were not so full of bug poison.
