Has anyone been watching the documentaries on ESPN (and TSN) looking back at 30 sports stories from the past 30 years? Each one is done by a big name director or personality.

I've seen just two - "Kings Ransom", about the (in)famous Gretzky trade, and "Small Potatoes - Who Killed the USFL?"

Both were outstanding in their coverage and depth. In the weeks and months to come, there will be one on Terry Fox (directed by Steve Nash), Andres Escobar, and soooo many others. A list is here:

I highly recommend the series - look it up in your PVR on when TSN is airing them.
