ESPN 30 for 30 series...seen a few of these....all seem to be very good

and doesn't matter whether you have an interest in the sport they are talking about. Last night watched one called - Catching Hell, about a Chicago Cubs baseball fan who was made a scapegoat for palming the ball out the reach of a fielder at a key stage in the match to go to to the world series. A lot of the documentary features Bill Buckner (who appears in CYE this series) who famously made a fielding error to cost Boston Red Sox a world series. Documentary is generally about how these people were made scapegoats when other factors were at play and just as much to blame.

The best 2 I've seen however are Once Brothers, about Basketball and the break--up of Yugoslavia and The Two Escobars, a football one about Colombian football in the early 90's and the impact of Pablo Escobar on it and the shooting of Andreas Escobar after the 94 World Cup.
