Nope. Watching/hearing about people just blowing through millions annoys the shit out of me.

I'll be watching.

I saw that Bernie Kosar is going to be on it. Supposedly that dude just couldn't say no to his friends and gave them all kinds of money to start up business and restaurants that all failed.

I'm interested in this one to see just how these dudes lost all their cash.

You can be sure the majority of these miscreants will be NGBA* players unless ESPN completely pussies out because it would be "racist" to show so may black dudes hitting rock bottom.

I typically enjoy the 30 for 30 shows, but this one was just stupid. Didn't need a whole show to tell us people make bad decisions, which is what it always boils down to.

Yea... I am let down. The show sucked. It almost felt like they spent too much time trying to make you "understand" why these morons lost their money. And lol @ Andre Rison. Future's so bright...

That's what I got, like they were trying to make you feel sorry for these players that were "taken advantage of".

I liked it. They may have tried to make the viewer feel sorry for them but I certainly didn't. I was very entertained though by the stories of stupidity. Some of the fools went beyond foolish but hearing the tales was very entertaining IMO!

I agree with this but I didnt take it as trying to make people feel sorry for them but just answering that question of how they can go broke so fast. Clearly it was pretty much all stupidity and was crazy to hear but I took it as more of a lesson or precautionary message for younger athletes. I saw a lot of college players and recruits discussing it last night.

Couldn't respond for a couple days because I was mugged by two 7' black dudes in shorts and tank tops.
