do you know that?  I figured they were not going to touch the gambling thing at all. 

the dad part they have to at least a little.

the director said nothing was off limits and they get into it...in fact mike wanted it brought up so he can dismiss the conspiracies that are 1000% true

Buddy was telling me last night the directors from Philly...said he watched an interview somewhere and they're holding nothing back.

he is decisively from newtown, mass

Ok clarified it's the executive producer he said he thinks he's from haverton but definitely Philly area

[MDS]

oh mike tollin....he doesnt have a ton to do with it, but he hes a philly guy

has made a bunch of terrible movies over the years

[phattymatty]

I'd bet a few of the 900 executive producers are from philly area.

they will do the gambling but it will be framed in cute and funny way...or it will be about how he was a maniac competitor on and off the court

Watched Ali/Frazier I last night on ESPN.  Simply beautiful.  Ali was so amazing, damn he was a thing of beauty in the ring but Smokin' Joe was pure beast mode that night.  Burt Lancaster did the color commentary, he wasn't bad.

MJ watching the glove on video saying he was wearing him down was lol 😂 the last dance is it as far as sports docs go. It just gets better every week

check out oj made in america....last dance is great but it looks like an after school special compared to that

i agree, the one about the murderer is a bit darker than the one about basketball.

Saw it...actually forgot all about it...the most memorable part of that doc -and it sort of overshadows the rest of series for me - is when they showed Nicole/other guy with their throats slit.

i have very fond memories about gruesome murder pictures, too. especially when its a woman.

[phattymatty]

I'm in love with the last dance.  I just caught up on 8 and one weird thing I realized is that there has not been a single mention of his wife - I think he said thanks to her once in a speech - but kinda strange.  kids either, they showed them playing once or twice but he's basically been married since the first title and nothing about it.

maybe it wasn't exciting but still find it odd to go ten episodes in depth and not touch on family other than his dads murder.  Guess maybe those were his rules when he gave the ok.

Apparently saw his sons/daughter commented on it on social media or something. Daughter said something to the effect of how now she really sees why he was such a big deal/the GOAT
