1984.
Was a good year for men.
It was the year the Supreme Court ruled, in NCAA v. Board of Regents of University of Oklahoma, that the NCAA's television plan violated anti-trust rules and allowed for individual schools to negotiate their own broadcast contracts.
In 1984, ESPN started broadcasting its "College Football Saturday Primetime."
And the year of Doug Flutie's historic Hail Mary pass.
1984 was the year that changed television for men. For the better.
After 1984, there was an explosion of guy centered sitcoms, commercials, action movies and sports programs. It was the year of Panama-ah-oh-ah-eh-ah. Panama!
It's not my theory, it's one hatched by our new friends over at Brobible.com.
So give 1984, The Year that Changed Television Bro-gramming a read.
Thanks.
