Obviously what happened 30 years ago is relevant today.

History has a tendency to repeat itself. But in this case it is irrelevant.

My two favorite areas of interest, history and the NFL. To a degree you are correct. General parameters surrounding historical situations do indeed have that tendancy. That is primarily due to the fact that human beings are just that ... human beings. We are all basically the same. Given enough time history will "repeat itself" because with all of the many permutations possible, it cannot help but repeat past events or leanings to a very similar degree.

Human history is a tad bit longer than that of the NFL (which, by the way is less than that of the CFL), therefore the chances of future events deviating from those of past experience is, in fact, very probable.

That is why, in this case, you are absolutely correct, it is all irrelevant.
