I must have missed "Best That Never Was."

Caught it today...and it's up there as one of my favorites.

I still like "June 17th, 1994" the best though. I just like the style that the director went with it, and how there was no interviews/narration and it was all just clips from the news and sporting events mashed together. I thought it was really well done.

Just looked up 30 for 30 on Wikipedia.....The Steve Bartman episode will air sometime in 2011, as well as four more episodes. ESPN says they will continue this out as a spinoff, showcasing at least 5 "30 for 30" type episodes every year...

Got the first 15 box set for X-mas. Won't be in until the 7th, but still thought was a sweet gift.

I don't think I have a favorite...I've enjoyed all of them I've been able to see. I started The Two Escobars last night but have yet to finish it. Also watched June 17th, 1994 for the first time...I thought it was really good. I was only 9 at the time and although I remember the OJ story I had never seen how crazy that day actually was.

I would like to see all of them..and I have contemplated buying the box sets.

Perhaps. I should make him "buy" me some movies for my birthday.
