ANALYSIS/OPINION
Growing up as young football fan in Brooklyn, I didn’t realize what I was missing. The revelation came upon leaving for Washington to attend Howard University.
There was more to NFL Sundays than Giants and Jets games.
Who knew?
Unfortunately, some children in Los Angeles might grow up believing that the league revolves around the Rams and Chargers. Their parents will long for the days when L.A. didn’t have franchises of its own, meaning the two or three most-appealing NFL contests were beamed into their homes every Sunday.
That’s not what I enjoyed upon I arrived on campus, as Washington games were a constant.
