Fall 1967- I would walk home from school & stop by my grandmother's on the way in time to watch that afternoon's World Series game - in black and white, of course.
Time was...indeed. .

It was 1969 for me. The Series games were in the afternoon, the TV was black and white, and I found out for the first time how much it sucked to be a Cubs fan.

Not trying tobe too "Canadian" on this topic, but it reminded me of Ken Dryden's classic book, "The Game". He had the same theory, and I always believed that was as true as a generalization could get.
I likely can name more players on more teams in more sports from 1971 than I could from today. And I'm still an avid fan of pretty much any sport.
