It being a Monday night... As the clock struck precisely 9pm Eastern Time on an autumn Monday, when you heard this sound.... YOU. GOT. PUMPED. Howard Cosell's voice over the strains of Johnny Pearson's "Heavy Action" to kick off Monday Night Football.

1000x better than the bullshit we have to watch today.

It’s very hard to explain to anyone under the age of 30 just how big of a deal Monday Night Football was then

Scan any documents, convert images into text, PDF files, etc. 👍

Post a million of these!!!! Omg it brings tears of growing up in rural Missouri, rabbit ears could just get a clear ABC terrestrial signal, but that start with Howard, none like it. HW Jr added the splash later.

"pressurizing" I miss Howard's mastery of the English language.

Felt like a huge event and everyone watched it. Less 🏈 was definitely more back then.

Bradshaw had a cannon

Should be the forever music bed

I remember watching those games. Those were the glory days of the NFL. I wish MNF would come back.

This beginning was a great one!

Best way to start the week growing up
