Starring: Chris Berman, Neil Leifer, Dave Anderson, William Gildea, Barry Levinson
Directed By: Marc Kinderman
December 11, 2008
I was hoping that a definative epic would have been made to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the most famous single game in NFL history. Instead we got the INDY Colts? W H A T?
ESPN had the 1958 players sitting with the modern Giants and Indy Colts talking about the game. Pat Sumerall and Adam Vinatieri was painful to watch as the connection simply could not be made. Why was it tried?... more

Starring: Joe DiMaggio

This is a collection of movies shot by the players themselves. It's a great look at baseball past...however, I'm not old enough to know who a lot of the players are and it would have more enoyable had the producers added the names of the players... more

This is a great tape but it could have been better. While I could recognize many of the players that were featured in a clip, the lack of a caption or audio identifying the player reduced the impact. This tape is constructed from 8 and 16 mm footage shot by players, their families or fans. For this reason, there are few shots of game action, most have the players mugging for the camera, grandstanding... more

| 4. When We Were Kings |

Starring: Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Don King, James Brown, B.B. King
Directed By: Leon Gast

This is a great documentary! I love sports documentaries and this ranks as one of the tops, but of course behind "hoop dreams" in my opinion. If you love boxing back in the glory days when this sport was at the top, this is the film to buy. If you love Ali and Foreman, this film is well put together to tell you the story of one of the greatest boxing matches. Loved it!... more

| 6. Major League Baseball - All Century Team |
|
Starring: Babe Ruth
October 10, 2000
As journalist Bruce Catton once said: "Say this much for big league baseball - it is beyond question the greatest conversation piece ever invented". A truer phrase was never spoken, as there is nothing like the sport of baseball to spark arguments and create comparisons day after day. Due to the long history of major league baseball, dating back (in its current form) to the earliest years of the... more

|
Starring: Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Joe Frazier
October 05, 1999
This item is what it says it is. The graphics of the fights are very good and the commentary makes you feel as if you are there. The biography is pretty good. I have not really seen a video biography that encompasses Muhammad Ali completely. I am not sure that one exists... more

This DVD contains a wide range of topics that my son has used to get motivated for his high school games. It has the past with old pros and it shows the young guys playing today.

The DVD is great because it allows you to fast forward... more
