    Can't wait for this episode tonight! I think it's going to be one of the best of the entire series. Plus, they got a Long Island kid in Kevin Connolly to direct it (Eric from Entourage). It's a great story of one of the biggest frauds in professional sports history!

    Does anyone know when No Mas will be re-played? I can't find it on You Tube. I saw a replay of the Book of Manning on You Tube and it was awesome.

    The best thing I've seen lately besides the Manning thing was the boxing documentary "Legendary Nights: The Tale of Gotti-Ward" on HBO.

    It was amazing, you had Jim Lampley and Larry Merchant with tears in their eyes talking about the rivalry and the sport they've loved for so long. Powerful stuff.

    I've loved most of the 30 for 30's I've seen, but I'm a big fan of documentary's.

    My favorite 30 for 30's/ESPN Films Presents are "The U", "The 16th Man" (rugby union is boss), "Unguarded", and "The Fab Five".

    I DVR'd "No Mas" last week and I'm going to watch it soon.

    Huge hockey fan and to be honest first I've heard of this story. Though I was 11 when it went down. Documentary was fascinating.

    Loved pony excess and greatest there never was (Dupree), as well as catching hell(bartman)
    I also thought Bo Jackson's was well done.

    For the most part, I like them all.
