Looking forward to watching this. Ever since I saw the promo a couple of months ago I've been wanting to see it.

I read a really good artilce on him a few months back, poor guy...he did what all fans would have done, that team still had a chance, they just imploded.

Extremely excited to see this. Roommate's a Cubs fan and he's informed me to call him 30 minutes before the airing tomorrow night to make sure he's somewhere in front of a TV for it. Thankfully, he's never blamed Bartman for the loss so it should be entertaining to both of us

How many VN members would be one of those fans throwing food, cussing, yelling, pointing, threatening?
Too many, imo.

Man I feel bad for Bartman. Makes me feel bad the stuff I said about Randy Sanders back when he was OC at UT.

This was not as good as I thought it would be.

I get Buckner and Bartman have a connection. I don't need to hear about Bill Buckner for 25% of a documentary about Steve Bartman.

I do feel bad for Bartman. And he handled it with great class. He could have made millions off this, and he didn't.

Also, the Cubs never deserve a World Series.

Agreed the Buckner/Red Sox storyline could have been left out honestly. I think this and Pony Express have been my favorite ones.

The Two Escobars, The Best that never was, and No Crossover: The Allen Iverson Trial were the best in my mind.

The cubs batting glove was a link. I never knew about that. And his replacement had one go through the legs. I thought it tied in well. Not much more about bartman could be covered.

Probably the best 30 For 30 I've seen thus far (all of them are really good). It made me feel really bad for the poor guy. Hopefully those dumbass Cubs fans have some sense of understanding after 8 years to realize that every single one of them would've done the same thing he did. He was the unlucky fan who just so happened to be the one right in the path of the foul ball.

I got a lump in my throat when they showed Bartman wiping the beer off his face. Nobody deserved what he got. Cubs fans get what they deserve.

That's what I was talking about with my wife. Can you imagine going to a playoff game of your lifelong team? "Bye honey. See you after the game. Go cubs!" And then THAT happens to you?

It's unfair what happened to him. And that is what makes me feel the sorriest for him is he actually felt bad. He was a Cubs fan. He knows what he did. He's not some 20 something year old blonde who just wanted to go because she's on a date. He understands that he screwed up. He admitted his mistake. But hey, Cubs fans want to throw beer at a guy because went for a foul ball at a freakin baseball game.

That would be rough. Your whole world would be turned upside down.
