Jimmy the Greek documentary tomorrow night

[Capybara]

Has anyone been watching this 30 for 30 series on ESPN? They've all looked interesting but I just haven't caught any yet. I wonder if they'll repeat.

I've watched two of them so far, the one about Ali and the one last week about Len Bias.... Both were put together very well and very informative. I am looking forward to watching this one tomorrow night.

Remember the E in ESPN stands for Entertainment...

ESPN has done a very good job with many stories.. the "3" movie was good.. the "Bronx is Burning" was also really good..

the 30 30 stuff has been good..

But i really think this Jimmy The Greek special is really going to cap all of them... I vaguely remember Jimmy the Greek as a kid.. but i remember my dad loving him.. so i really can't wait to watch this..

Yeah, I think this should be the most compelling one -- ESPECIALLY for this board, as it's all about a guy who was a bookie, who ended up becoming a pretty big on-air personality. What could be more fascinating for sports fans who are gamblers?!

White girls say that all the time. But who the fuk is Jimmy the Greek?

They've had some great topics in this series and I'm looking forward to the one on Jimmy The Greek. Always remember back to the interview that killed his career - "The slavemaster mates his big man with his big woman - that's why black athletes are better".
