Best things about this cover:
  • Not sure why I own this. Must've been overcome by a wave of nostalgia for my earliest days of sports awareness. 1977 was pretty much the year that pro sports entered my consciousness, and I became a big sports (and stats) fan very quickly thereafter.

Best things about this back cover:
  • Nothing. I think the real reason I own this book must be the amazing interior photos—a dazzling array of mid-late''70s men's hair styles. In lieu of "Page 123," here are a few:

How the hell did Drew Pearson put on his helmet? Lots of extra padding is good, but he must have looked like a bobble-head.

I'm pretty sure I owned this back in the day.
