The most underrated one is the Vlade Divac one.

1 & 2 are easily The Fab Five and The U

Not sure about a third.

Maybe it's just because I'm a Cubs diehard, but I don't see what was so great about this one. It was basically just a recap of the Bartman events as they happened.

Pony Excess was my personal favorite.

I think the best one was the first one about the colts leaving Baltimore in the middle of he night, and the band that would not stop playing. Awesome.

1.) Pony Excess
2.) Unguarded (can't believe there's only 2 votes for this one)
3.) June 17, 1994 (such a gripping documentary ironically with no interviews only footage from that day)

+1 what would have made it great is if Bartman was actually a part of it. without him it was nothing special.

1. Pony Excess
2. 2 Escobars
3. Once Brothers

The best 30 for 30 docs are the one that place sports within a broader social context.

1. The U
2. Pony Excess
3. You don't know Bo
4. The Reggie Miller one. Can't remember the name.

Couldn't pick just three. These four were head and shoulders above the rest IMO.

I'm glad this one was mentioned. It was great.

I'd go with:

1) June 17, 1994
2) Once Brothers
3) The Best That Never Was

Pony Excess and The Two Escobars would be right behind these for me.

Thats a good list

But i might drop Dupree, replace with Guru of Go.
Actually got a little misty-eyed/lump in my throat when they covered the family, teammates, and coaches regarding the death

Vlade Divac/Drazen Petrovic was really good.

1. Pony Excess- Probably the most well put together of all of them.

2. Bo Jackson- He was before my time, my dad always talked about him. Nice to see what all the fuss was about.

3. The one recently about Benji, the baskeball player from Simeon in Chicago.


Coming in a close 4th was Without Bias. I enjoyed that one.

The U was awful, Could have been so much better.

I would go

1. Once Brothers (Valde/Drazen)
2. Pony Express
3. Bo (Though I am biased Bo was my idol growing up)
4. Dupree
