Hair helmets do not always mean combover and vice versa. Plenty of guys back then sported a full, healthy head of hair. It is disconcerting to see seemingly every single man with some sick variation of the "hair-helmet-and-muttonchops-combo" hairdo. It's as though it were required. Longish hair on men would linger until perhaps the mid 1980s, when men's hair shortened considerably.
True enough. I was addressing the image of the fellow showing on the TV in the video above. It certainly looks like a comb-over to me with the amount of scalp showing above his forehead at the part.
Anyway, every decade has its share of hideous hairstyles. I see more and more of today's teenaged guys wearing their bangs down to and over their eyebrows like teens did in the 60s.
Back to the topic, thanks for the music vids Jim, ANZALDIMAN and Blue15. They are reminiscent of NFL Films music. I've been watching a lot of the old "This Week In Pro Football" vids from the 60s & 70s lately and I never grow tired of the Spence tunes nor the various Music Library tunes. An amusing side note in that I'm noticing that quite frequently Steve Sabol used his own voiceover as a stadium announcer and sometimes as an interviewer asking coaches a question.
A slight annoyance for me is the way they reused the same game sounds over and over when players are tackling, blocking, etc. One in particular has what sounds like a player yelling "Joe!" as he is hitting or being hit. It was used in many of the episodes from the early 70s; so often in fact, that I don't know the origin. I want to think it started with the highlight film of Super Bowl IV, when one of KC's linemen was sacking Joe Kapp, but I can't be sure.

Not really related to this thread, but in the realm of sports tv music, I remember back in the 80s some cable channel would broadcast PKA (Professional Karate Association) fights on Saturday(?) nights and they had cool intro music that I wish I could find. It was an electronic (synth?) score, likely one of the music library pieces from that era.
I don't know PKA or much about obscure US tv, your best bet would be too look into obscure library labels. Koka-Media, Carling, Bruton, De-Wolfe, Cavendish, KPM, Bosworth/archives/Trunk, some of the pieces I found were used in tv shows, sports, pilots & ads.
