Is this what’s called a cliffhanger?


It was about a college b-ball player who stomped the ***** out of a small kid in a bar here in.

 Binghamton. He got out of jail and fled to his home country in Serbia. His Visa was confiscated but the Serbian embassy gave him another so he could flee. It was my case. Guys name was Miladin Kovacevic.

Did you guys find out why he did it?  What happened with the kid?

"The Best That Never Was"

and

"Nature Boy"

 

I like all of them but some are better than others. These two are my favorite.  The story of Marcus Dupree is something I wasn't very familiar with and I thought it was really well done.  "Nature Boy" was great too and Ric Flair was the man when I was a kid. 

I also really liked the Marcus Dupree story.  For some reason, I just found it captivating.  

 

I also liked "Jordan rides the Bus"....about his baseball endeavors.  

 

All of the ones mentioned above that I have seen were great - I have some to catch up on though...

Marcus Dupree

 

the era of Herschel and Rogers and Marcus and Earl was during elementary and high school, that kind of elite runner that seemed to always be around but not much lately

He did it because the kid allegedly pinched his buddy's girlfriends ass. The kid that got his ass kicked almost died and went through extensive rehabilitation. 
 

The Serb government tried Kovacevic and found him guilty but he got some ridiculously light sentence. He was paraded around the Serbian Parliament like he was a national hero.

 

Anyway, there is still an International warrant out for Kovacevic. If he steps out of Serbia and into a country that we have an extradition  agreement with he will be brought back here and tried.

I feel the same way.

"Requiem for the Big East" is a great one and I really liked "Catholics vs. Convicts"...the whole story on how that guy hustled the t-shirts was very entertaining. 

 

 

Catholics Vs Convicts was really interesting, especially the part when the kid finally made it as a walk on for the basketball team & Digger Phelps had to dismiss him because of the business he was running & told him "you threw your life's dream away for a couple thousand bucks."  

 

The 30/30 are excellent, I wish they would make more of them.  The 4 falls of Buffalo was good I guess since it hit home, but I thought it was one of the fluffier 30 for 30s that ESPN ran.  I thought they should of been a bit harder on the Bills & dig into the parting & stuff like that but they went for the angle this team never gave up.

What is with the length of these latest 30 for 30s?  The new one on Michael Vick is something like 2 and a half hours or more - and I still haven't finished the Rodman one because it's so long.
