Danica! posted:Absolutely. I was a Senna fan too, but they did kinda Jesus-fy him, which wasn't entirely accurate. They left so much out of Senna it wasn't funny. Like by the end it got past "Well, they left out stuff that made Senna look bad" to "They weren't actually painting a picture of what happened, just telling you that Senna was the best." They should do a 30 for 30 on the end of the last MLB season, just because after watching that one with Bill Simmons with a smug, poo poo eating grin we are owed one of him crying about the death of that Red Sox dynasty.  Edit: Also, I thought the U was great, the Pony Express was really good, and the ones (I'm a non-American) about the Yugoslavian Basketball team and the Alabama running back were tragic (As in, incredible documentaries that made me  ).

The worst part about the Red Sox one is Bill Simmons' insufferable smugness. How about you make one about Game 162, Bill?

Yeah one of the best, if you can describe something that made me cry as "the best"

VikingSkull posted:Tim Richmond: To The Limit is on Netflix now. I highly suggest anyone with even a passing interest in NASCAR or auto racing watch it. He's widely considered in NASCAR circles to be one of the best racers ever, but he died young, one of the first big names to die of AIDS. Before his death, NASCAR tried to railroad him as a junkie, because he was a feathered hair having, speedo wearing Hollywood playboy in a land of rednecks, and he whipped their asses. Yeah it's really good. It's also interesting to see some of the mea culpa from some of the drivers. None of them (apart from Petty Jr who seems like a cool dude) really say "I was wrong because he was just different" but it's still good nonetheless. The story about Dale telling France it's bullshit that he was suspended because he was his toughest competition true or not, is really touching.

Early press on the John Daly ep is really positive, so I'm looking forward to that.

Thats good, I watched I Hate Christian Laettener despite not knowing anything much about college basketball I enjoyed the entire thing. As long as they know what's bullshit and not when it comes to the interviews. algebra testes fucked around with this message at 16:51 on Nov 22, 2016 |

Niwrad posted:One of the other cool things about 30 for 30 is that it spawned a bunch of other docs non-ESPN outlets. Heck, I even sort of like the Football Life docs on NFL Network. I find the season/team ones interesting like the Houston team that imploded (lol buddy is such trash) and the last Browns season in Cleveland, and the ones about coaches to be generally good. I also really liked the series (America's game?) about classic games. Although I have literally never seen them more than once or twice they seem hard to find. I saw one about the Cardiac Colts or something(?) with one of the Harbaugh brothers which was cool.

I'm watching Catholics v Convicts and I can't work it out. Like, it's entertaining me, but something is bugging me about this fan film about the rich white kids who really enjoyed it when Reagan spoke at their school getting revenge on those wild people from the poor university that beat 'em up at a football game previously.

Crazy Ted posted:I...don't remember the Honda debacle. Something happened with Honda and Vince wanted to give them poo poo on the air, which everyone at NBC told them no way because Honda was a big time NBC sponsor in general. Eventually Vince got King to say something like "They were as unreliable as a Civic" or something like that and he got in serious poo poo for it because Vince always gotta Vince.

Mike and the Mad Dog ep is real good, in my opinion. I'm kinda shocked by some of it, but also not?
