It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I watched Catching Hell around when it first aired, and it made me feel bad all over again for what happened to Steve Bartman. It also shed light on what happened inside Wrigley right after the incident, which I didn't know about. If I remember right, there's still one rear end in a top hat who is completely unapologetic about what he did to Bartman, pissed me off so much.

Recently watched the Matt Hoffman one, thought it was pretty good, but a little underwhelming. Once Brothers was really good, and brought up a bunch of stuff I kind of knew about, but not really, regarding the whole split of Yugoslovia. Last one I recently watched is The Band That Wouldn't Die, and i found it interesting, especially as a former marching band nerd myself. You can see the pain a lot of those people still carry with them from the Colts moving to Indy.

I'm going to have to rewatch The U because I haven't seen it since it aired, and I remember it being hilarious. I've got June 17, 1994 and Two Escobars in my queue now to watch.

Cliff Floyd has been retired since 2010, and he made over 53 million dollars in his career :stare:

This is football, not baseball like what Floyd played, but 3/4 of all NFL players will file for bankruptcy at some point after leaving the NFL. It's amazing how quickly players blow through that money.

The Soccer Stories really suffered from being so short. There were definitely a few where it got to the end, and I was like, "that's it?" Just seemed like they never had enough time to put a complete story together. Hillsborough being the exception since it was a full-length documentary.

I thought Catching Hell was a 30 for 30? It's one of the better ones, and I'm a Cubs fan. Only slightly unbelievable that there's a couple people in there who seem completely unrepentant about how awful they were to Bartman.

Remember how awesome "OJ: Made In America" was?

Well ESPN is going to follow that up with.......... A multi-part documentary on Chicago Bears fans.






:confused:

I'm a Bears fan and I'm not sure even I want to watch this.
