Gaming Helps San Diego Area Shops Survive

June 22, 2011 By Rich Mueller

April 5, 2009 By Rich Mueller

ESPN was barely a blip on the sports radar screen. Home computers were still more than a decade away. No blogs. No YouTube. No college hoops on TV every night. Whatever hype surrounded the 1979 NCAA Championship game was largely because the country had read about Magic Johnson and Larry Bird in their daily newspapers or issues of The Sporting News, Sports Illustrated or … [Read more...] about Remembering the 1979 NCAA Championship
