Vince Lombardi would not have allowed his players to grow their hair long or stay out late at night chasing women. In those days, coaches would assemble their players and lay down the rules of conduct: Curfews, no drinking before game day, no arrests for bad conduct and no conduct detrimental to the league. I think the league is moving back to those strict standards.

Exactly. Back then there was discipline and self-discipline. Back then, immediately after a game, players were also still in “beast mode.” But if another player got under their skin, they took care of it on the field. They didn’t grab a mic and start screaming and screeching into a camera and brag about how great they are.
