I go back as far as those Hank Stram/John Madden blood sport games.

Ditto.

Man, that was football. Buck Buchanan, Ben Davidson, Marv Hubbard, Curly Culp, Willie Lanier, Art Shell, Bobby Bell--those guys didn't take any crap off of anyone.

If those games were played now, half the team and the coaches would be facing hefty fines.

I recall one game (sometime in the period 1969-1971) when the Chiefs and Raiders had a bench clearing brawl, baseball style. The field was littered with black and red players beating the crap out of each other. The network went to a commercial break, and when the break was over, the brawl was still going on.

I seem to remember the announcer using the word "pandemonium" a lot.

That was football without the beer commercials......

The Raiders, KC, Denver and San Diego have given the most bang for the buck on any given Sunday when they play each other.

You left out Conrad Dobler. He not only wore red (St Louis Cardinals), he saw red!
