Some young players had no clue who Munchak was.

Have to say I'm one of those fans, which is why I love hearing you guys share these stories. I definitely knew Munch was a great player but I'm not old enough to have ever seen him play.

Following the Oilers from California, I rarely saw them play, unless it was against the Rams, Raiders, or Chargers (or until the playoffs).

I would say I knew of Munch the player, but I wasn't able to watch him play regularly.

I was born in Houston, but my mom moved me back to Iowa when I was three months old. I rarely was able to see watch Oilers games in Iowa, other than when they were playing a 'local' team like KC or Chicago. I was an insane fan back then, and loved Munch, Moon, Jefferies, White, Smith, Childress, etc. Only time I was able to watch Munch was during highlights on The Sports Machine late at night, and I was watching that behind my parents back because it came on so late. Hell, Matthews played fairly recently, and I don't remember many of his highlights, mostly because highlights of offensive lineman don't fill the minutes on Sports Center.

Same here.

Man, talk about a flashback to the old days.
