Were scientists paid more than professional athletes in the 50s and 60s? I somehow doubt it. There's a lot that's ridiculous about this article (His "30 year slump" completely dismisses information technology for example). But with such a clear fallacy at the very core of his argument it seems unproductive to debate points that support that flawed argument.
- kenjackson 16y agoI can't check this right now, but I don't think athletes were paid nearly as much in the 50's and 60's. TV hadn't entered the picture in a big way. Even in the 80s NBA conference championship were tape delayed and played at midnight. The SuperBowl in the 60s was preempted by Heidi.
