I believe it was Vince Lombardi who told a young player who show-boated after scoring a touchdown, “Act like you’ve been there before”. Hope I can remember that one for my brother.

I don’t know much about football (despite a husband who’s been immersed in it for decades, from the betting angle), but I caught that game that’s called, I think, the “Ice Bowl” on ESPN Classics one time, and watched it. Now THAT was a football game.

I could’ve enjoyed football back in the day when they still had male cheerleaders (not directly for that reason, LOL, just using that as an indicator of the time frame I mean), and women still dressed up a bit for the college games. I understand from my daughter-in-law that the games at Ole Miss still have that kind of atmosphere.
