Old sports weren’t just “different.” They were borderline unrecognizable. Rules that sound fake today were once completely normal, and some of them would absolutely break modern sports if they still existed. Incomplete passes were turnovers. Touchdowns were worth less than #fieldgoal #Baseball pitchers weren’t even allowed to throw overhand. #Hockey players skated with no #helmets #Soccer didn’t have goalkeepers.

Swipe through and try to imagine today’s athletes playing under these rules… because at one point, they had no choice.
