Best 30 for 30? Abso-effing-lutely!

Truly an American icon.

 

[planored]

Never been a fake wrestling fan but that was a good 30 for 30

 

[LovNit]

Judging from all the buzz, it sounds like a classic.

 

[LovNit]

Wooooooooo. To be th man, you have to beat the man!

The cartoon reenactments make them great!

Agreed about the cartoon crap. They did that with the Bo Jackson deal too.

 

[Hedley Lemar]

Flair was the man.

It was badass, one of my favorite 30 for 30's ever. Anyone who says pro wrestling back in the day was fake is fvcking stupid. Choreographed, yes, but fake? Hell no. Ric Flair could kick some serious ass.

15 drinks a day, ouch.

It was awesome, but also sad in a way....guy never knew how to separate from his in-ring persona

From what I could tell his in-ring persona was him, just an exaggerated version of the real Ric Flair.

That' a slow Saturday for most around here

Especially during games.

Haven't seen the Flair one yet, but my vote for greatest 30 For 30 is Pony Exce$$.

For 20 years......how does he still have a liver!?

The story about Vern Gagne's wrestling camp was freaking awesome.

Dude. The guy was a fake wrestler (pause, reflect) who turned his back on his children. Pathetic is the word I would use to describe Flair. He couldn't spend time with his wife and kids because he "was a World Champion"? Are you effing kidding me Rick Flair?! A world champion of make believe? Seriously? Wow. Good Lord...I would have been more impressed if he had taken his kids to church just one day. His daughter, who has gotten into the "wresting" is totally hot though, so there's that.

 

[Yolobomb]

Everyone else on the internet: laughing, joking, talking abt how awesome Flair is.

Feminsts and suckeye fans: offended, triggered, Flair sucks - he didnt take his kids to church.

You can play with your WWF dolls. I'm fine with being on the other side.

"Im so fine with it i had to make a post to tell you how fine i am"

 

[jimbosc]

My only advice to a young Ric Flair would have been to not get married and just do your thing. Especially to not get re-married. Not fair to those people....especially the kids. I think he felt bad about it but admitted - that was who he was.

Most of what he did was legal and about having as much fun as your can with your pants on (and off). Which is why it was a fun story.

That one is way up there. I really enjoyed "The Best That Never Was." Dupree seemed like a good dude, but was lazy and horribly naive. The one about the Huskers was.....Oh wait....

I finally saw the OJ five-part series. That one was really good. I was only 8 at the time, so had very little awareness of what happened, just what I heard.

Others tell me I need to watch the FX series "The People vs. OJ Simpson" with Cuba Gooding, Jr. Have heard very good reviews.
