I don't know.
In many ways, simpler was better.

Great find but somehow I found that unnerving.

I think my eyes got splinters from the wood paneling.

If you watch it all the way through, they get to a segment concerning the "Swine Flu" epidemic of 1977. Interesting

Don "The Weasel" Fortune.
He was the Kevin Keitzman of the 1970s. I saw Don in a bar in Canton, Ohio when Len Dawson went into the Pro Football HOF. Then ten years later I saw him in a bar in Albany, NY, when George Brett went into the Baseball HOF. That's the only two times I've met him in person. |

I didn't bother watching sports on TV back then (except Sunday night after the Chiefs game). But I poured over the sports page. I'd spend a half an hour on the box scores of the NFL and MLB games.
What is even funnier is that back then, the only highlights you saw were on Monday Night Football. No highlights Sunday Night. No ESPN. Just 5 minutes of highlights at halftime of MNF. It was like gold. And if they failed to show highlights after a rare Chief win, it ruined the whole night. |

It's amazing how no one ever missed Howard Cosell's halftime. Hell, even if you weren't into the game, you wouldn't miss the halftime. God, that seems like a million years ago........... |

There were times when the Chiefs game wasn't shown where I lived, and then the news would just say, "Bills 21, Chiefs 17", and that was it. So I had to wait for the paper the next morning to try to figure out what happened. It was agonizing. I remember getting incredibly frustrated when the news wouldn't show any highlights of the game. I remember Ned Reynolds of the Springfield News shaking his head and saying, "Well, it was another bad day for the Chiefs", and wishing he'd shut up.

Chiefs coverage really sucked out here in Cal, and that was my only hope, that, and a Brent Musberger update in the middle of the 49ers games.
