Dear 1970s: All is forgiven. You’re off the hook.
The past 10 years of New York metropolitan-area pro football at last have surpassed that era in awfulness.
Sure, that lost decade famously turned a generation of now late-middle-aged NFL fans from Long Island and the rest of the area into supporters of the Cowboys, Steelers, Raiders, Dolphins, etc. (In my case, it was Washington.)
But only people eligible for AARP cards remember that time.
