A correspondent sent me this note from a Green Bay Packers discussion 
group. I believe it's worth sharing.

Vic, didn’t you get the memo? Everything old is bad and everything new 
is good. How many times as a Packers fan have I heard that nine of our 
13 championships we won don’t count because they didn’t call the game 
the Super Bowl prior to January 1967. It’s the same ridiculous 
historical bigotry that can make a man as great as Jim Brown nothing but 
your average running back today, in some folks’ minds. According to 
reports, Secretariat would have beaten American Pharoah at Belmont by 
two seconds. How can that be? Everything old is bad. Nobody that did 
anything a long time ago was any good, except Mark Twain.
