This is also true..in the past, sport was really SPORT, and players played as a hobby. Today, sport is a hard-hitting BUSINESS. I remember reading in many places that in 1954, when Hungary played in the final of the World Cup in Bern, Swiss watches were smuggled back to Hungary sewn into the balls to earn a little extra money with them... Today, this is unthinkable, because the players are piled high with money...
