No yellow lines to mark the first down, no blue line on the line of scrimmage, no scrolling scores, no fantasy updates...

Did see the old Fox Box' showing the score, but there was a time when even that didn't exist. If you didn't know the score, you usually had to wait till commercial to find out what it was.

And yes, there was a time when football didn't have a 'telestrator'.

Kids today probably wonder how we ever watched games like that :lol:

Yeah the Time and score was a very nice addition. The yellow line was ok too. But station identification logos started getting bigger. Then the news ticker along the bottom. Then pop up commercials for the fall lineup. Some of the changes are so incredibly welcome. Like HD and better instant replay. But the commercials and sponsorships have really gotten out of control.

I was 22, watched the game with my Dallas fan roommate... He left in the 3rd qtr, I hurried & found a VHS that I wouldnt mind taping over. I got a heartfelt "Fug off.." when he got home & I put the rest of the game on for him....
