Milo Meningocele Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I miss the times before each league over-expanded to the point where you can't familiarize yourself with all the players, you have no idea who anyone is anymore, or who plays for who.

RETROJR79 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Other thing I miss about sports is the 4 division league. I like the 6 division format but I missed it when MLB just had the East and West or in the NFL East , Central and West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I was posting though, I was particularly thinking of the NHL. Up through high school, I was an NHL and Red Wing fanatic. Then came all the new teams and rule changes, and I didn't know what was what anymore--and I just stopped caring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hjwii Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 World Series day games.Hartford Whalers.NO interleague play; I mean, wasn't it great when the teams in the World Series had never met in the regular season? or ever?When touching a player didn't constitute a foul in basketball; and when taking more than three (or was it two) steps meant traveling.Knuckleballers.When the quarterback was an actual football player that could be hit or tackled without worries of a personal foul.

MC2 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Creativity and orginality in any sports uniform/logo design.I think the reason this is gone is because in this day and age, the first second a new jersey is made that is sort of unique, everyone bashes it to the ground. Fast. Hard. Finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Kinda miscellaneous (not necessarily all on-field issues):Frank, Al, and Dan.Keith Jackson and Bob Griese.Big 10 early football games with Brad Nessler and Gary Danielson.The Blazers' court with the white keys and the different colored 3-point lines.As someone said above - day World Series games (and day LCS games).Scheduled double-headers.The Big 8 and SWC.Sports catalogs that were fun to look at, and every product didn't say "Go online to see more teams". Back in the 90s, Eastbay catalogs were the best. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
