I grew up in the 70s and 80s when one of the highlights of a fans week was hearing Howard Cosell mention your team during the Monday Night Football halftime highlights show.
But back then not only did most people not have cable, we didn’t have Internet, smart phones, NFL Red Zone etc etc… I know there are good highlights shows, but with 24/7 media, their importance is diminished.
Chris Bermans act jumped the shark 15 years ago, anyway.
