∙ 12y agoThe difference is that today's games are much more action packed.
In addition, today's sports involve much more fan support and
money..therefore there is a great deal more of media attention than
in the 1920's. You must remember that in the 1920's there was no television
and radio had just come into use. So, most people, unless they lived
in cities where sports were played on a large scale, didn't have access
to the information that we have now. As well, the players then, as with the
rest of society, were smaller and not as agile..in general. Now, with changes
to diet and more focus on conditioning, the players of today are larger
and generally more athletic than in the 1920's.

∙ 12y agoWell, the sports are played the exact same but the players and there surroundings are very different. In the 1920s the players went the same places everyone else did and so it was common to see someone like Babe Ruth eating peacefully at a restaurant. But now a days, if you saw someone like Albert Pujols at a restaurant then everyone would be going crazy and fighting just to get to him. The players in the 1920s weren't as big headed either.

∙ 13y agoSport differs in the fact that back then facts and figures are a lot less as to the fact that they're now better training programmes, diets and in a way humans were still evolving. Sport was also much more dis-organised and there wasn't such a large demand to tickets due to a lack of transport.

Sports mania in the 1920s, fueled by stars like Babe Ruth and Jack Dempsey, increased the average American's interest and participation in sports. The rise of sports coverage in newspapers and radio broadcasts brought sports into people's homes like never before, allowing more individuals to follow and engage with their favorite teams and athletes. This era also saw the development of more organized sports leagues and facilities, providing greater opportunities for the average American to participate in a wide range of athletic activities.
Many athletes were known for their accomplishments in sports during the 1920s. Some of these include Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, and Jim Thorpe.
The National Football League (NFL) was created.

Yes, school sports were very popular in the 1920s, as they are today. Colleges had some of the same rivalries then as they do now-- the Harvard-Yale football game, for example, drew plenty of attention, as did the rivalry between Army and Navy. Since there were fewer professional sports leagues in the 1920s, the public paid more attention to the college games. The one difference back then was that female students were not encouraged to compete in team sports, since it was still widely believed in the culture that girls were too fragile to play most sports. Some girls did play tennis or golf (especially at all-girls schools); but nearly every coeducational school and college focused on boys' sports almost exclusively.
