I'm sure you're kidding, but little brother was a GREAT college player. IIRC, he was Sporting News' POY in 1980 or so.
50" would be a crazy VJ.highest VJ I heard in NBA was darrell "dr. dunkenstein" griffith at 48".
Are the schedules regional? I was in DC area when I saw the Randall one advertised, I'm in South Florida now.Bernie & Ernie is the one I'v seen them advertise all week.
Great story, well done. Sounds like a great man.
He was my 2nd-round pick in 1991. Coming off an MVP season.... tons of passing yards and the rushing production of a good RB all wrapped up into one player. Spoiler alert..... he breaks his leg in the 1st quarter of the first game. Done for the year.Just found out NFL Network lets you watch online if you have FIOS - I'm good to go
I like Randall, one of the coolest NFL players I've ever met. Looking forward to this.
i thought that was one of the best sports docs i've ever seen.
I wish I never watched that one . Not because it wasn't good, cause it was, but I never knew how close my Cowboys were to landing John freaking Elway. I guess we would have never had the run on the 90's though.Sinrman said:
Bernard King is a deep soul. I felt the episode rushed over his off the court issues in the NBA but other than that, very good episodeBob Magaw said:
Any documentary on Bernard King that pretty much ignores his long history of violence against women isn't worth watching. I have no interest in anything that glorifies that scumbag.
I think the reason it glossed over his off court issues is Bernard King was executive Producer
Literally just finished this and came over here to post. Excellent.
Well I can't go that far, he made some stupid choices in an unenviable situation but the guy did commit armed robbery after signing a 400,000 contract.
Probably so. Clarett would have been a different player had he not been suspended for two years for what was really minor violations, Terrell Pryor did worse. Him getting involved with alcohol changed him, a sad story that I used to think was funny but I don't anymore. I hope that guy does something with his life, shows the establishment he can't be beaten down. It's up to him now, his name still has some cache with sports nerds like us.
The players association fights it as much as the NFL because for every new young guy that comes into the league it costs one of their veterans a job.
I got the impression that the harshness of the penalty had more to do with Clarett's press interviews at the Fiesta Bowl.Probably so.

Just watched Elway/Marino..... I had no idea the Patriots were in play for Elway. I can't imagine they would have traded Hanna, but in retrospect it would have been a great move.
He was on Jim Rome's TV show a few months back. When the interview began, I was fully prepared to
at everything he said. But I was astounded by his maturity and contrition. He paid his dues and has his life back on track. What a beautiful little girl he has, too. I'm rooting for him.
I need to watch this. Have some pretty negative (and apparently unfounded) views of Clarrett from the mess that occurred.He was on Jim Rome's TV show a few months back. When the interview began, I was fully prepared to

I loved that one. It made me want to write King a personal letter just wishing him the best. He seems eternally tortured by what he went through.Bernie and Ernie.
I never knew that Bernard King went through the crap he did down in Tennessee while I myself was in college.
Good piece. I also had some pretty negative views of Clarrett.

I hear you. Yet he seems almost at peace with what he went through, too. Claims to never have cried as a young man- and you believe him when he says that. But now... he comes close, wiping his eyes- now it seems he could use a damn good cry.I loved that one. It made me want to write King a personal letter just wishing him the best.

Loved that team. Their second five were as good as the starters for half the teams in the league.Bad Boys, about the Pistons on Thursday.
So much ridiculous stuff surrounding that. Did a paper on soccer hooliganism and was utterly stunned by that.
