I'm so pumped for this film and I'm not even a Cubs fan. ESPN Films has done an outstanding job with all of their films; even the ones that aren't "entertaining" are still fairly well produced. I think this Film has all the potential in the world to be one of ESPN's best - purely because of the story. I hope they do it justice, and I'm sure they will. Absolutely cannot wait!

I'm really looking forward to it. I'll never forget when it happened. My roommate in college was a die-hard, Chicago raise, Cubs fan. He was one of the biggest ass-holes I have ever met, yet this series made him cry like a baby. Only Cubs fans!

I remember Bill Simmons writing awhile ago that this one had the potential to be the best of the bunch. It was supposed to be part of the original 30 for 30 but the director wanted more time. I think it will be phenomenal, and as a Cubs fan it will probably piss me off.

ESPN does a lot of shit that pisses me off, but their documentaries are top notch. HBO and ESPN crank out tons of good sports docs.

Doubtful. You weren't able to on the 30 for 30s. ESPN is so stupid. Occasionally somebody will put it on YouTube though
