A lot of the sports have gotten softer, but these athletes would run circles around the “steel curtain” of the 70’s. It’s not a knock btw on their “toughness” as anyone can get blown the **** up but it’s more about how athletes now maintain their body’s in such superior ways and use technology that simply wasn’t available to people playing in the 70’s and 80’s, it’s an unfair comparison.

Hell, just think about what LeBron does to maintain his athleticism at this level at this age (and how much money goes into that). He's presumably spending millions every year to do it.
