    Don't know if I "miss" them, but I really enjoyed reading this article about the bullpen carts.
    Suprised 30 for 30 hasn't done one on the topic in the spirit of "Who Killed the Electric Car?"

    The life, death and rebirth of the bullpen cart

    Didn't KC use a blue cadillac convertible? That was sweet. Always figured the relievers probably appreciated the short jog in to get the blood flowing a bit. Did visiting teams get carted in as well?
    I remember that Mariner tugboat.

    I miss fights. NBA, MLB, they were just awesome. Now they're seen as evidence of the destruction of society.

    Put me down as missing the old Smythe, Patrick, Adams and Norris divisions.

    Also, the eastern independents in football playing for the lambert trophy each year as a big thing.

    The old Big East.

    Team having two uniforms and only two uniforms. (Except the pirates mix and match)

    Actual stock cars being used in nascar.

    New Year’s Day as the actual day for major college football.

    Super Bowls in January.

    And I just realized this is such an old man rant. Get off my lawn!
