Is today's music "better"?

Are today's basketball players "faster"?

Are today's baseball sluggers "stronger"?

It's not a fair comparison at all.

Nutrition is better and that alone has led to people being taller and stronger. Sports medicine and treatments are better. Coaching and knowledge of psysiology is advanced.

And yes, all the gear helps too!
