Make it college. Then once you're a pro nothing is out of bounds. NOTHING

It's not a 30-for-30 but this is probably as good a place as any for it There's a movie about Tonya Harding coming out, starring Margot Robbie

I watched the BC point shaving scandal doc Everyone involved was pretty stupid all around, Rick Kuhn didn't deserve 10 years, Bowie got hosed Worst. Fix. Ever.

That one is one of my favorites mostly because I had watched Goodfellas a couple of days before watching the doc, and boom there's Henry Hill. Also Jim Sweeney comes off as more full of poo poo than Henry Hill, which I don't know how that's humanly possible.

You know, in hindsight it's obvious that the XFL was a terrible, terrible idea, but looking back I suppose someone had to think it was a good idea to actually do the XFL. E: Costas just coming on and making GBS threads on it immediately. Sky Shadowing fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Feb 3, 2017 |

Crazy Ted posted:It was NBC's belated "revenge" against the NFL for losing its football broadcasts. Just imagine the pitch: I really wish NBC had never lost the AFC package. They were actually GOOD at covering the league unlike CBS who seems like they lost something after they lost the NFC. In theory...creating a "new" football league around that time would have been a good idea if done right. The NFL was really struggling, and was at a very weak point within (like right now) and some competition was definitly needed. Each time that the NFL was indeed "vulnerable" a new league would pop up full of owners, players, coaches and teams that the NFL had kinda rejected. The XFL should have followed the lead of the AFL, USFL by finding owners like Cuban, etc that the NFL wanted nothing to do with and went hog wild.

Funny story about the USFL, you know the owner who convinced them to to take the fatal step of moving to compete directly against the NFL, and thus sealed their demise? A certain Donald J. Trump.

Sky Shadowing posted:Funny story about the USFL, you know the owner who convinced them to to take the fatal step of moving to compete directly against the NFL, and thus sealed their demise? Yep. He bought a team because the NFL rejected his offer to buy the Baltimore Colts. To his CREDIT? He actually was a good owner. Paid his players well, and seemed to treat them well. However his "football knowledge" side was very lacking. IIRC, I think Walt Michaels was trying to encourage him to draft Randall Cunningham rather than Doug Flutie. Trump refused because he wanted a "name" to sell fans, and thus yeah...he made a bad decision. The push for them to go to the fall was also idiotic, but again, Trump wanted the mystique of being an NFL owner. He'd have been an okay NFL owner. In the same way that I feel the W. would have been a great commissioner rather than a POTUS, Trump as an owner of the Colts/Generals going against the likes of Jerry Jones, Dan Snyder or Al Davis as being the crazy "wildcard" of the league.

There's a 30 for 30 about that too. I might be remembering this wrong but I think he was proud of winning the lawsuit for 3 dollars?

Bob Seger talking about Chris Berman is great television, this is fantastic. And Bill Belichick!

Costas was on maximum smug mode in that documentary. I can't believe NBC let him take on McMahon like that.

Odd that 30 for 30 hasn't done that yet. Or just the whole Baylor sports program in general. Rape and murder! Fun!

I feel like the XFL doc could have been much longer and done in multiple parts. So many stories they left out like the Honda debacle. How do we get James Andrew Miller to write an oral history on it?
