    One of mine from last year came true... Barry Switzer.

    A duel 30-for-30 about him and Bozworth is dropping in October.

    - Also we need a non-biased one about the sonics/Thunder transition. (So the truth about most sonics not giving a ? about them moving is exposed.) and how technically the OKC bombing started a domino effect that led to OKC getting a team.

    - Neion Deion

    - Braves in the 90s

    Who the ? is gonna watch the Bolded for a hour???The ratings will be through the ground.

    There's actually already a documentary about it that's quite popular and critically acclaimed. It's just biased. Called Sonicsgate.

    It was shown online for free when it was released and got half a million views and then aired on MSNBC and CNBC, and ESPN Classic.

    Oh...

    Eh ... u showed me. Teams get relocated all the time. Don't see. the big deal about the sonics / thunders.
    If anything minneosota should have went to okc.

    Most of the best 30-for-30's aren't the most "well known" or "popular" stories. That's what makes a good documentary -- when it reveals details that weren't known before.

    I gave 0 ? about Vlade Divac and Drazen Petrovic or Yugoslavia, but "Once Brothers" is arguably the best 30-for-30 yet.

    Don't give a ? about the Baltimore Colts, but the story behind their move from bmore to Indy is cold blooded. Same with the Browns/ravens.

    Same with the 30-for-30 about that NY Islanders hockey owner that bought the team without *actually* buying it and just scammed his way into NHL ownership.

    Lotta interesting ? happens in the "business" of sports.

    I think the Iverson "brawl" 30-for-30 was premature.

    They should've done one this year that told the story from that brawl to him now.

    Makes Lenny Cooke's story look like a Disney movie.



    - A Shaq one would be nice too. Not just the kobe beef, but everything. His beef with Alonzo Mourning, trying to rap, forcing the league to make goals "Shaq proof", having one pair of pants that fit him in high school (tru story), his father situation (bio and step-dad), growing up in 3 different cities, etc, etc.

    His goofiness overshadows a lot of interesting ? in his life.

    They could do one on the early 90s Buffalo Bills and how the each Super Bowl loss affected both the team and the city.

    Phi Slama Jama . The Houston Team with Hakeem & Clyde. I like to know how that team dealt with being part of one of the biggest upsets in history. I wanna know how Guy Lewis (coach) built that team. I wanna know how the rest of the great role players are dealing with life after Jimmy V. ruined them. Phi Slama Jama was UNLV without the title.

    Damn, all the lil-bow-bow "I wanna be like Iverson" era nikkas would tune in to that.

    Nikkas would shed tears too.

    Muhfuggas swore up and down them And-1nikkas was "too real for the league."

    I knew the Harlem Hoodtrotters would only last so long...

    I wanna see how they started finding these ? and puttin them on and then see some "where are they now?" ? .

    Also to laugh at how And 1 couldn't translate the immense popularity they gained into making decent looking shoes/sales

    A little biased, but:

    The City of Philadelphia and it's sports life.

    (Boston and Cleveland would work here, too.)

    imo they need to do a doc on the the negative effects on sports i.e. parents pushing their kid athletes, referees getting threats or being killed, fan gangs, and etc.

    the sports promotions/merchandising business (logos, clothing, commercials, video games, and etc.)

    when a player leaves the league (nfl, nhl, nba)

    slambasketball (with the trampolines), xfl, lingerie football, and1, dodgeball league, video game league on direct tv.


    personally i would like to see a doc on the 04-10 Phoenix Suns.


    and yeah i like the boring stuff lol.
