NFL 30 YEAR TEAMS

Time to tackle the NFL. I vaguely remember watching the Steelers defeat the Rams 31-19 in Super Bowl XIII. I have been glued to my television for more Sunday's in the fall than not since that time. There was no fantasy football in the 1980's, just a boy who loved his Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins and his Topps Football Cards. Fantasy football may have changed my perspective starting in 1990, but I have been in-tune with the players that have come and gone. Based on my over 500 weeks of watching the NFL, here are my 30 Year Teams. I will start with the "skill positions" and potentially add others later.
