Sports Documentaries

[Buccaneer Madden]

Most of the 30/30 are really good (as long as you like the subject matter) and I also liked the ones about the Dream Team and the Fab 5 that I believe were both on NBA network.

The Best That Never Was doc was a good one. All of the 30/30's I have watched have been good and I especially enjoyed these ones: Ben Wilson (Benji), Len Bias, Phi Slama Jama, and the 1970's NY Knicks.

The documentaries "Fastball" and "Knuckleball" are on Netflix and both are good.

Ive seen a couple good Netflix docs like fastball and the greatest of all time KEN BURNS Baseball! But if you've seen those I recommend seeing.......

1. Spaceman (a baseball odyssey) : good film about Bill Spaceman Lee
2. NETFLIX ORIGINAL : LAST CHANCE U......think a more raw version of Friday night lights

I never saw Ken Burns documentary and have no plans to do so...almost everyone I've talked to that has seen it says it's way too focused on the teams in the Northeast and ignores a lot of worthy subjects involving Midwestern ballclubs.

I think this thread is about documentaries that you like, not those that almost everyone you've talked to, do not like.

New York City is the best town in America, maybe the world.

I enjoyed lots of the 30 for 30 ones already mentioned, but especially "Broke" and "The U"

And caught a couple recently that I really liked on MLB Network, "1971 Pirates - Forever Brothers" and especially "School of Rickey"

Big fan of Rickey, highly underrated, to me anyway

The documentary in question was mentioned, and I offered my thoughts on it. Last time I looked, the 1st Amendment allowed me to do that.

I've watched all the 30/30s enjoyed them all I love the Mets but have enjoyed the Yes Network Yankees documentaries I have DVD somewhere on the Red Sox docs loved the U growing up in the 80s loved parts 1 and 2 the Fab 5 was well done.Trying to think of the one I watched about a baseball league in the 70s watched it on Netflix so many others have to look for the ones on the Pirates and Expos..
