I don't watch the four letter network for anything other than live sporting events, and even then I feel badly about it.

Did you even watch The best that never was. It was about an ex-sooner. The guy was amazing. Must've been truly special to watch for those old enough to see it

Guru of Go, the whole Hank Gathers/Bo Kimble thing still chokes me up.

The Hank Gathers one was very touching.

I've only seen two of them...

The Best That Never Was &
Once Brothers

They were both so fantastic I am wishing I had been watching all of the 30 for 30's....

Once Brothers was the best one so far.

This. Although I did watch the Dupree one. Does the World Series of Poker count as a sporting event?

Don't think I've seen three off them. The Two Escobars was really good and The U was good too. Still need to see the Dupree one.

I liked Ice Cube's one about the Raiders. "Small Potatoes: Who Killed The USFL?" was pretty good, as well.

Jimmy the Greek one was pretty darn good.

I liked the one about the U. It's the only one I've seen, so I guess it's my favorite.

I was a sophomore in college in 1987, so no, I did not like "the U" 30 for 30 episode. Miami and their 6,000 fans can choke on a goat burrito for all I care.

Also enjoyed Birth of Big Air, not even a BMX guy but I thought that one was excellently done. Lots of respect for Matt Hoffman, guy is one of the greatest and toughest athletes ever

Lots of Oklahoma in that one as well......

I have it set on a Season Pass on the DVR, most of them have been very well done. You can tell that ESPN had little involvement in them other broadcasting them, the production quality is too high for them to be an ESPN produced product.

Mat Hoffman sat behind me in 7th grade Civics class. Just an FYI. :)
