Yesterday's Sports is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS HOME PAGEEPISODE SUMMARYThe final episode of the Hall of Fame series is recorded during Super Bowl week and opens with Dave describing his Super Bowl jackets, patches, and pins, including favorites from Super Bowls VI, X, XIII, and a rare press pin from Super Bowl XXX. The conversation reflects on collecting, nostalgia, and how memorabilia represents personal memories more than monetary value, while also reinforcing that Hall of Fame induction is limited and that not getting in doesn't erase a player's greatness.The discussion then shifts to football nostalgia and how the game has changed, touching on extreme cold-weather games like the Bengals–Chargers “freezer” game, Kenny Anderson's performance, and concerns about moving future playoff games indoors. They contrast today's Super Bowl—dominated by commercials, halftime shows, and nonstop media—with earlier eras when the focus was strictly on the game, before closing with lighthearted talk about old episodes, short-form clips, and plans for future shows.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS BACKGROUNDHost Mark Morthier grew up in New Jersey just across the river from New York City during the 1970s, a great time for sports in the area. He relives great moments from this time and beyond, focusing on football, baseball, basketball, and boxing.

Yesterday's Sports is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS HOME PAGEEPISODE SUMMARYThe episode continues a discussion between Mark and Dave about how difficult and subjective the Pro Football Hall of Fame process is, highlighting several players who waited many years to get in (including Tom Mack, Jack Youngblood, Carl Eller, Harry Carson, and Randy Gradishar).Mark and Dave argue that modern fans—used to instant takes—often don't relate to how long the process can take, and they blame nonstop media coverage for turning every “snub” into a major controversy.They then review current finalists and first-year candidates like Drew Brees, Frank Gore, Larry Fitzgerald, Kevin Williams, and Jason Witten, while also mentioning longer-waiting names such as Willie Anderson, Jahri Evans, Darren Woodson, and Torry Holt.They debate the eight-player limit, stressing that letting in too many hurts the Hall's prestige, and they point out how roles like blocking tight ends, interior linemen, and kickers can be overlooked (with discussion of Vinatieri, Otis Taylor, and L.C. Greenwood).This and much more....YESTERDAY'S SPORTS BACKGROUNDHost Mark Morthier grew up in New Jersey just across the river from New York City during the 1970s, a great time for sports in the area.

Yesterday's Sports is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS HOME PAGEEPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode of Yesterday's Sports on the Sports History Network, Mark and fellow sports historian Dave DePaolo take on the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the growing gap between how modern players are inducted versus legends from earlier eras. They discuss how today's nonstop media coverage has changed the conversation, creating pressure for instant, first-ballot inductions, while many past greats waited years to receive the same honor.Dave explains the Hall of Fame voting process, including modern-era and senior candidates, the role of the 50-member committee, and how personal biases and media influence can affect outcomes. Mark and Dave also reflect on numerous historical players who waited far longer than today's stars, reinforcing their shared belief that Hall of Fame discussions should focus less on hype and more on true impact, longevity, and what a player meant to the game.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS BACKGROUNDHost Mark Morthier grew up in New Jersey just across the river from New York City during the 1970s, a great time for sports in the area.

02/08/2025 Generous: Redeeming the Days Ephesians 5:15-17Big Idea: The way you spend your time determines the direction of your life.Sometimes we live as if we have an unlimited amount of time to live. We need to spend more time being with Jesus (think Mary), and less time doing for Him (think Martha).When it comes to time in our lives:1. Wisdom shows up in how you spend your time. (v 15) Does God actually care about out time the same way He cares about our money? Our lives need to reflect our relationship with Jesus. The life you live tomorrow is being shaped by the time you steward today.2. Time isn't owned, it's entrusted. (v 16) The time we are given to live is valuable, we need to be wise in how we choose to spend it. See Psalm 90:12.3. God's direction becomes clearer when your time is ordered. (v 17) Is your schedule crowding out God's voice? See Mark 1:35. If God is first in your life, He'll be first on your calendar.Wisely stewarding the time entrusted to me means I:1. Put God first on your calendar. (Matthew 6:33) The Creator of the universe wants to be in a relationship with each one of us as individuals.2. Practice Sabbath and margin. Can you commit one day a week to connect with God, and let the world spin by? 3. Be fully present where you are. We don't need new priorities, we need new attention. Presence is one of the most generous gifts you can give.4. Learn to say “no”. What is your “yes” costing you in your relationship with God?Information -> Application -> Transformation
RHLSTP #597 - University of Bee-Keeping - Richard is back at the Podcast Room where he is chatting with one-liner king, Mark Simmons. They discuss the difficulties of producing a good succinct joke, how rarely Richard manages it, how the language used can serve as a hidden copyright sign in the DNA of the thing and what can be done if someone nicks a good one to make into a greetings card. Plus the perils of being the support act for a sore-throated Seann Walsh, whether the man at Pret fancied or pitied Richard, living with a poltergeist and the importance of giving your audience something to laugh at. Plus why it's fun to punctuate one-liners with patience testing nonsense.

The team posted a winning record in all four seasons of the league's existence and had an impressive 12–2 mark in 1948. But they were in the same division as the Cleveland Browns, the league's best team. With the league struggling to survive, down to one division and only seven teams remaining, the 49ers finally got their chance to face the Browns in the 1949 Championship game, but lost 21–7.The league folded, and the 49ers joined the NFL in 1950. From 1950 to 1959, their record was 63-54–3. Their only postseason appearance came in 1957, when they blew a 27–7 lead to the Lions.From 1960 to 1969, the 49ers' record was 57–74–7, and they never made the postseason. After a 4–8–2 record in 1969, there was no reason to expect the 1970s to be any different. But the 49ers surprised everyone by going 10–3–1 in 1970 and then upsetting the heavily favored Vikings in the playoffs. They lost to the Cowboys in the NFC Championship game, but returned to the title game the following season, where they lost to the Cowboys again. In 1972, they lost to the Cowboys again, this time blowing a 21–3 lead in the divisional playoff game. They never recovered, and from 1973 to 1980, the 49ers' record was a dismal 39–79. But the 49ers were about to shock the football world in 1981.You can read the full blog post here.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS BACKGROUNDHost Mark Morthier grew up in New Jersey just across the river from New York City during the 1970s, a great time for sports in the area.

He played with a mindset of giving 100% effort on every play, a quality not often seen in today's game. Despite his small size, he possessed the courage and fearlessness of a giant.

The Value Of Testing In The Development Of Faith James 1 – Session 2 October 12, 2025 Review: Responding to tests, trials, temptations: A key to our successful development! James 1:6-8 – Faith: Essential For Relationship with God and all that flows from Him! (Hebrews 11:6) Faith's Origin: “Hearing His Word” (Romans 10:17); His Gift deposited in you (Ephesians 2:8,9); All receive “a measure” (Romans 12:3) Satan's agenda: Stop the Word process (Mark 4:15) The poison of unbelief: torment, instability To believe, or to doubt, is a choice! (The difference in mind and heart) (See Mark 11:23) ✸Get your mind, heart lined up! What are you saying (2 Corinthians 4:13) Attacking Doubt Reinforce what you Do Know Talk back! Speak to the poisonous doubt! (Proverbs 18:21; Joshua 1:8) Refresh your spirit with worship and prayer! Engage prayer covering, support in the battle! James 1:9 Lowly: Without worldly position, proud, no monetary wealth, etc. Exaltation: Relationship with King, family of God, Citizen of Heaven, inheritance of every spiritual blessing.
