Next week they're having it on Drazen Petrovic and Vlade Divac. http://30for30.espn.com/film/once-brothers.html should be good.
I assume you're doing a bit? I was obviously not being sarcastic. But wait...you were being sarcastic in your response to me...so you don't think it looks interesting. Why is that? Do you hate the Blazers or do you hate Petrovic? Which one is it?

I watched 10 seconds of the baseball episode right now and Bill Simmons is sitting on a barstool laughing with some Red Sox reporter! Bill Simmons has grey hair! His picture in his articles must have been taken 20 years ago!
simmons was actually talking to comedian/actor lenny clarke (rescue me, rounders) who is a big sox fan as well. the four days 30 is one of the best they've done so far and i've enjoyed most of them.
I only watched for 10 seconds so I guessed that he was a reporter. As for dying his hair, if he didn't dye it to appear on this history program, I doubt he dyed it for a mere photograph. So I think it's an old picture. (Another reason is that he was a lot more wrinkled on the program than in the picture.) Anyway, the point of my post is that the basketball episode (see OP) is on tomorrow (which is today 2 hours from now).
Once Brothers is on right now. Or here's an article promoting it. http://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2010/10/12/hang-time-podcast-episode-27-p-ii/
I see a lot of similarities between the Drazen situation and the current Rudy situation. The obvious difference being that Drazen was a much better player. But, both feel like they weren't given a fair shake on playing time, both were deep in the depth chart on a team loaded with guards and both didn't like how small town Portland is. Petro dreamed of being an NBA star and got to that point averaging 22 points a game, before he tragically died. Not sure that if given the opportunity like Petro was in New Jersey that Rudy could be as good.
Anyone know where I can watch these online? Don't see the option to watch full episodes on the 30 for 30 website but there are quite a few I want to see.
The only channel I get is the CW. I stream everything else on a computer and hook it up to the TV if I want it on the big screen.
If I were you I'd look for torrents of them. Couldn't find any site to watch them. http://www.torrentreactor.net/torrents/4197816/ESPN-30-For-30
Watched this on ESPN last night. [video=youtube;ZE7nJNjcMZ8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE7nJNjcMZ8[/video] Pretty sad for such good friends to be driven apart. I've gained a lot of respect for Vlade after watching this. Most (if not all) of the documentary can be found on youtube.
