O.J.: Made in America - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Sorry about the awkward colon after a period but that's how they spelled it in the guide.

Anyway I am literally just starting this now, but I get the feeling it's going to be a reasonably big TV event that's worth discussing. Twitter is buzzing about it and the people who aren't on the West Coast seem pretty enthralled with part 1.

Starts tonight on ABC, then continues on ESPN.

Let us discuss one of the biggest events of the 90s.

It was on at 9pm tonight on ABC. I'd be shocked if there wasn't some repeat on ESPN or ABC.

Wow, that opening parole scene....a showcase for the effects of high level CTE.

The first part was pretty damn good. Probably gonna be the best 30 for 30 ever made. For reference, I've seen 95% of them and I would rank top 5:

1. The Two Escobars
2. Duke Lacrosse
3. The U, part 2
4. Len Bias
5. Valvano

this is good

I like that one 30 for 30 about the young Canadian athlete stricken with bone cancer that left him an amputee, and the cancer returned when he was runnin' a marathon a day across his nation. RIP, bless his soul

Decent first episode...loved the one writer thinking OJ was a real dick after he explained to him why a woman calling the other black men around OJ - but not OJ - the N-word wasn't a bad thing, but a good thing for OJ.

Marcus Allen was known for having an above average penis. Like 12 or 13 inches type stuff.

I enjoyed Roy Firestone's **** eating grin while he grilled OJ who looked like he wanted to strangle Roy

All 5 parts are up on the ESPN app now (also on Xfinity On Demand)
