Forgot about that one, I saw it back in '95 or '96, whenever it first came out. Excellent show. Interesting to see how blackballed Lindsey became around the league because of all that, and the straight-up lying Jack Adams did to make it appear Lindsey was a bad guy.

Still haven't seen The Rocket, I bet I'd really like it, and I caught a small part of 1972, which looked good as well.
