Your earliest football memory

Think back to the first time you saw a brown pigskin flashing across your screen.

It took me until 2010 to become a full-fledged football fan. Blame Canada and their lack of advertisement for that. However, my father had the foresight to record the 1998 playoffs.

My earliest football memory consists of Gary Anderson channeling his inner Scott Norwood. My eldest brother, who was around 11 could be heard yelling for the "purple team to throw it to Moss". I found myself cheering for the Falcons who simply had a "cooler logo". Back in those days, purple was also considered the softer of colors, when matched up against red.
