  1. The Magic Moment was good. But I think there's a fair amount of revisionist history there, with Shaq stating he wanted to stay in Orlando. I don't recall there being a whole lot of doubt he was heading to LA and leaving Orlando.
    Penny was/is a tremendously nice guy/teammate.
    Forgot about Anderson's missed FTs. Wow.

    Would love to see them talk to Lorne Michaels. He was none too pleased when an overtime XFL game forced SNL to go on tape delay.

    Really wish Believeland could have been produced a few years earlier so
    That Geoff Sindelar could have had the chance to be in it.

    By a long shot? The Livan and Orlando Hernandez one also was great, just for the footage of Orlando watching Livan in the World Series on TV in Cuba. Also seeing Orlando greet his daughters at Teterboro Airport. Maybe I'm not objective since I had a buddy who trained at Foxcatcher, but Prince of Pa also was a classic.

    OK, maybe not a long shot. But that was easily my favorite. I can count on one hand the ones I didn't like, though. Many arguments to be made. Some great work they are doing across the board.

    Is the Kansas toolbag with the Naismith rules one that you didn't like? That was my least favorite by far, and can say that it was kind of worth watching once. Pretty much every other one I would watch at least twice, although I haven't seem them all.

    Yes. Pretty sure I've seen every one. The OJ Chase one wasn't a favorite either.

    That one wasn't nearly as bad as the Steinbrenner one, which struck me as nothing more than a shameless, maudlin, propagandistic whitewash of a douchebag and his sycophantic followers.

    But as a Yankee fan I'll take that guy over his son and the other clowns running the team now. They have some nice restaurants that I don't give a shit about and didn't even want to go to when my wife got company tickets. F the Audi Club and NYY Steak. The new bleachers also suck. Yuppies and hipsters pretty much never sat in the old bleachers. Bring back Roy White's knishes. Sorry for the rant.

    Speaking of Steinbrenner, one of the things not mentioned is that George only bought the Yankees because he tried buying the Indians and was told they weren't for sale.

    I thought that one was bad, as was the Red Sox one. In general, I think the docs have been better the further in the past the subject matter is, since the participants seem more likely to chat.

    Insane to think at that point the Yankees weren't worth much more than the Indians.
