The stuff of nightmares
|
I think ESPN didn't get enough heat for some of their more half baked 30 for 30's.
I hated the Red Sox one because jesus christ, that was so drat recent and also one of the most OVER COVERED sports stories of the past decade.
Once Brothers and Tim Richmond: To the Limit both suffered (though the Richmond one to a much greater extent) from the fact that they were done by the official bodies of the respective sport. Once Brothers had far too contrived of an ending and Tim Richmond was a historical white wash.
I thought House of Steinbrenner actually was a bit underrated a bit though. I'm not fan of the Yankees but I thought it was an interesting though small in scope view of why people care about the Yankees. I was disappointed in it ultimately because I love Barbara Kopple's work but it just felt truncated, oddly paced, and the fact that George died I'm sure lead to some weird rushes in editing.
Also a friend of mine has an opportunity to possibly pitch some ideas to ESPN. What would a dream 30 for 30 be for you?
I'd like to see one chronicling the different nation-sponsored training that goes on for the Olympics.
