The 1970s was an up-and-down decade for the Baltimore Colts. After a disappointing 8–5–1 record in 1969, Head Coach Don Shula left to coach the Miami Dolphins and was replaced by Don McCafferty. After the NFL and AFL merger, the Colts were one of three NFL teams to start the…

After winning back-to-back World Series in 1977& 1978, the New York Yankees had an off year in 1979, finishing the season with an 89–71 record and failing to reach postseason play. More importantly, their Captain, Thurman Munson, was killed in a plane crash. The Yankees were determined to get back…

The multi-talented Ladd excelled at football, wrestling, and basketball. Ernie "The Big Cat" Ladd. Mention his name to any sports fan born in the 1960s or 1970s, and most folks would likely remember him as a pro wrestler. I was born in 1962, and that is how I remember him. …
