I thought you meant current cause I was gonna come in here and say that the NFL and NBA done totally flipped the script over the last 15 or so years.
NFL guys are super hyped and are expected to be stars off the bat. Whole NBA guys are kinda moving like lasagna among casuals like myself, nobody (casuals) expects anything from new guys and people don’t even bother in guessing who the next star is. Unless they are tall as fukk (or Zion).
I like that, cause they are giving the young guys time to develop. Like ANT is now 4 years later expected to do things. In the NFL dudes expect Caleb to completely revitalize the worst organization in the league
