Keep in mind that back then, sports discussions were at work, school or a bar, and consisted mainly of, “Did you see the [local team] game last night? and “Yeah, cool win, they’re looking pretty good.” And if the performance of another team’s wide receiver relative to their draft status was discussed at an office building a mile away, you would have zero idea that conversation happened and it would exist only in the memories of those involved in that discussion. Almost like it never existed. Weird, huh?
