"To commemorate the 50th anniversary, ESPN films paired eleven of the games participants with current players from the Indianapolis Colts and New York Giants to compare the nature of the sport 50 years later." I know the result of the comparison. There can be no comparison. The players of today are quicker and stronger, enhancement drugs aside. The comparison stops there. However, in the 1950s & 1960s the NFL players' work ethic, good citizenship, desire to win with class, and ability to lose with class are without comparison. It was an era when most players were just damn good Americans, husbands, fathers, sons, and had a connection to the average guy on the street. What you saw on the field exemplified this fact.
