And I'm almost positive "You've got a hit on your hands!" was the slogan from the 1985 season. Pretty sure "Go for the action" was 1982? And things got really slick in 1983 when it was "Turn on the action". I think 1984 was "Something Special in the Air". Always liked that one. 1986 had "The Thrill of it All!" But things started to get pretty bad though in the 90's leading to one of the worst, albeit memorable slogans: "You've gotta love these guys!" Not the best time for our pr/marketing crew.
I could go on and on blathering about this crap, but I won't.
