The reason I say 1970 is ESPN started in 79. non of us were to interested in football at 5-9 years old.

I was born in 78 and this represents me plenty, I'm a Xer with a boomer upbringing. There wasn't jack on tv, we stayed outside all day. and when it comes to sports, I didn't read every post but a piece that's missing is the newspaper. I didn't get baseball tonight until I was in high school I think, before that I checked box scores in the paper every day. Try being a white sox fan in Louisiana in the 80s. They didn't even put all the full boxes in every day. And every Saturday they posted a full page of season stats, it was the best.

Hell, I was. I've always been a sports nut especially with NFL, CFB, and MLB. Here in rural MS, we didn't get ESPN until I was 12 in the summer of 84 when he got the old satellite dish. So, most of my elementary and half of middle school I had the "3" channels.
