The best era in sport ?

[The binman chronicles]

2042 will be the best era, when they finally allow athletes to take as many drugs as they like and compete in a 6 week Olympic games.

If they change the year of the games to something outside of the usual schedule then it must be a special one!

Yeah, you can’t have it the same year, that would be weird.

According to every Kopite I've ever heard it's going to be next year.

The years of Michael Thomas scoring the second for Arsenal at the pit, and on a level footing, The Slipmeister giving a perfect rimming to Demba Ba

Any time before maybe 2000, since then money has begun to ruin things not just football but every sport is just consumed by greed and screwing the fans, there is no sport I enjoy now as much as I did in the mid 90s.

Defo the 80s.

Footy wasnt ruined yet, snooker players could get drunk and have a smoke.

And of course, Everton wasnt utterly horrific.

the 70s-80s had so many great fighters who fought each other in their primes - we have some good fighters out there even today but get Mayweather-Paciquao about 6 years after the sell-by date.

NFL: 1975-85 - all the games were played in stadiums that were old dumpster fires, but goddman they were loud.

NBA: I would argue for today over the mid 80s. Talent is off the charts - however 3pt shots are getting a bit too easy when centers shoot them at a percentage that Larry Bird used to.

Baseball: 1970s - drugs almost killed the NBA in the same era but goddamn they made baseball goofy and fun

College Football: never really had a golden era, its always been quite fantastic, but all the games are on TV these days, so today?

Hockey: late 70s-early 90s - then scoring stopped because goalies got good and can wear fat suits

NBA I'd argue that mid 90s was the best Hakeem Shaq Ewing, jordan, Barkley drelxer Payton Malone Stockton just huge talent everywhere.

they had stars but the basketball was putrid w/ scores sometimes in the 70s.
