  • Unintentional Period Piece: The intro shows Ed, a quarterback, kicking a field goal, something only a kicker does... In the modern game. At the time (early 1970s), while football was moving towards kicking specialists, players who kicked along with regular positions were still common. For example, during the show's run, George Blanda was the Oakland Raiders' placekicker and backup QB.
  • Values Resonance: Freight Train was the first reoccurring black character in a primetime animated series. He isn't portrayed stereotypically and is treated with just as much respect as any of the white characters.
