Who else is obsessed with 30 for 30?

for as great a player as everyone seems to label drexler, i remember plenty of crucial playoff games where he was in foul trouble or fouled out. guy wasnt a very smart player

so this doesnt surprise me

 

Cornbread Maxwell Came Across as MUCH More Likable than REED Figured he'd Be...He Was Funny as Hell in the Documentary...

But M.L. Carr's Sorry, Towel Waving, Bitch Ass Proved he was NATHAN More than a Bench Riding Scrub w/More MOUF' than Game...Just as REED Always Suspected, Back in the Day...






REED

 

Drexler has got to be the most productive player who dribbled the ball down court full speed with one hand, head down.

Jordan is his ever-present asshole-Ness

"Clyde is a better 3 point shooter than I choose to be"

During Dream Team scrimmages:

"didn't I already kick your ass in the finals? You're going to try to guard me again?"

 

ML Carr was basically a glorified Cheerleader.

Back in the 80s they wouldn't even kick you out of the game if you knocked elderly fans to the ground.

 

I'd still punch M.L. in the mouth if I saw his ass on the street.

 

Anyone see the Tommy Morrison episode?

OJ Made in America was part of 30 for 30, that is quite possibly the best documentary i have ever seen.

 

Yeah, the Tommy Morrison one was pretty good. I never followed his career closely when he was around, so I found a lot of the family and personal stuff pretty interesting.

 

OJ Made in America was stunningly good

 

Probably the best (sports) documentary ever made

 

Definitely in the running

 

so which are boxing related? i need to find this shit somewhere

 

It's the best sports documentary SERIES ever made.

Best single sports documentary ever made is easily Hoop Dreams.

 

Off the topic of my head, I can only think of three 30 for 30's that are boxing related - there's on the No Mas fight, one on the Holmes-Ali fight, and one on Tommy Morrison.

 

I haven't seen it myself, but there should be a Tyson/Holyfield one out there to.

 

BOOM! I knew there was one I forgot!

Yes, there's one on Tyson-Holy and it's by FAR the best of any of the boxing 30-for-30's.

 

I'm gonna have to keep an eye out for it. Only reason I remembered about it, is I talked to one of the producers while it was being made who was looking for leads, but I never caught the actual broadcast.

 

Was it the one called 'chasing tyson'?


I'm guessing they are waiting until the 3 time champ randall bailey is eligible for the hall before they make a 30 for 30 detailing his illustrious ring exploits

 

Bailey's gonna have to wait - I hear the next boxing 30-for-30 is on James Butler - titled "Hammertime"

 

I would watch the shit out of that if they actually made it.

 

i would only watch that 30 for 30 on the harlem hammer if it was narrated by mayweather jr.'s right hand man, "the harlem hot boy" P Reala.

 

There was also that cheesy one with Tupac and Tyson. That was corny.

Interesting how Tyson also was connected to so much Rap/street stuff.

 

there's one about Chuck Wepner...seems to be the only one i cant find a live torrent for

 

That's because they're generally dogshit.

 

yeh the Tyson/Tupac one was so bad i started jumping forward after a few minutes and then gave up on it completely

 

No Mas was very good. The Morrison one was very good.

I don't even remember the Ali-Holmes one, so I guess it musta been pretty underwhelming.

 

Ali-Holmes one is good...though just sad

the Duran-Leonard one is really just SRL trying to be on tv

 

Agree on both

 

how can anyone say the Duran-Leonard one was good o_O 'and now for some more insight from some bimbo who was a photographer'


is the episode on Arguello 'the guerilla fighter' good? i can't find it, along with the Chuck Wepner episode 'the real rocky'

 

The Wepner one was enjoyable

 

It's a short episode, available on the ESPN page.
