I grew up in the 70s, 80s, and 90s & I can HONESTLY say ALL 4 major sports were more fun to watch back then don't you agree? I've talked to TONS of people over the years who agree!
I'm NOT talking about the quality of athletes today. I readily agree today's athletes are better. I'm talking about how much enjoyment do you get from watching the games today compared to back then?
Most definitely the NHL was better then with Gretzky & Lemieux scoring around 200 points plus TONS of great fights! Now scoring is way down & fighting is practically phased out!
The NBA & NFL were clearly better then too! Dr.J, Moses Malone, bad boy Pistons, 80s Celtics vs. Lakers, Dan Marino, Eric Dickerson, Barry Sanders, Dan Fouts, etc. etc.
