WFAA REWIND: Verne Lunquist reports from the first-ever Texas Rangers Spring Training in Pompano Beach, Florida in 1972.


Verne is skinny and has hair.

"If you're a Rangers fan, think positive."

It is actually a quality report from Verne.

Sports reporting today is dogshit compared to the linked video.

Every time I see something form the 70's, all I can do is look at what they were wearing, shake my head, and wonder what in the frick they were all thinking. The whole decade too, not just the early part.

Apparently ABA/NBA coaches were getting the good stuff.. Larry Brown rocking the overalls has to be one of my favorite 70's pics ever.
