LittleHurt05 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 It was interesting to see where fantasy sports started, although I could have done without all of the weird re-enactments. The Ricky Williams episode is coming this week, should be entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 12:00 AM) Run Ricky Run was fascinating Truly. What an odd individual. I wasn't planning on watching it but I watched the first couple minutes and then was unable to ever change the channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 There is a 30/30 in June called, "The Two Escobars." It's about Pablo Escobar and Andres Escobar ( Colombian soccer player who was murdered after scoring an own goal vs the US in the 94 World Cup). Some believe he was killed by Colombian drug lords who lost tons of money on that game. The Two Escobars Teaser from Two Escobars on Vimeo.

LZPride08 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Run Ricky Run was the best 30 for 30 since the one on Miami Football, and The Two Escobars looks like it should be a good one also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 If you go to the 30 for 30 site to watch the other Escobar's preview, they show the atmosphere of Colombian soccer games with the drug lords in attendance. There was one scene where Colombian police/military were swinging down on ropes from the roof of the stadium. Scary s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazing how tame American sports fans are compared to the rest of the world.

Buehrle>Wood Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I hope they release these all in a box set. I have yet to see a bad one yet. Even ones I had low expectations for like the fantasy baseball ones ended up being my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one else has said that they saw him do it, but it was pretty prevalent in that era, several other players in that draft class had huge drug problems.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Finally got around to watching the Guru of Go and The 16th Man episodes...both were just phenomenally done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 The 16th Man was definitely a great watch. Now I probably don't have to go see Invictus now either. I had no idea that the white population of South Africa was under 10% of the country. With all of the racism and apartheid that was going on, I assumed that there were many more whites there, with all the control they had as well.

Africa, but will try to catch it. I've loved the series so far. Seen everyone except fantasy baseball and S. Africa. Not sure hoe Ice Cube's one this week "straight outta L.A. will be. The Raiders taking over L.A. didn't seem that big to me at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
