This season is way better. The coach isnāt an absolute cunt for a start. But itās even bleaker than usual. Itās as much about the gentrification of Oakland as anything else. They also arenāt Able/allowed give scholarships so thereās a lad whoās homeless basically playing for them. Literally his only hope is to make it at football. Grim place the US unless you are living the American dream

I was watching earlier and thinking it was like Season 4 of the Wire. The kids never had a chance
The Edge on BBC iPlayer is well worth a watch, particularly the second half.
Really good.

This isnāt exactly a sports documentary but I didnāt know where else to put it.
I try and imagine what it must have been like to be a Falcons fan that day. The closest I can get is the Niners 2012/13 seasons, which at the time were hard to take, but in retrospect we werenāt good enough. Falcons werenāt just good enough, they had effectively won like Limerick in 1994.
The play calling to get themselves out of that late field goal rangeā¦ The stupid offsideā¦ it must haunt them.
I think a big difference is that the 49ers have already won plenty of Super Bowls. The Falcons probably never will.
This was on BBC4 last night - enjoyable watch and gives a great insight into Russia after the fall of communism.

Naomi Campbell and Heidi Klum amongst his conquests.
Yep heās some ticket. The documentary is hilarious. The bit when he sends a message to the side line to bring on a lad and he scores the winner is hilarious.

Was good but timid enough ā¦naturally with his son as interviewer it was more about the Ferguson family and his illness ā¦there was no real hard questions asked ā¦
I see what you mean, I enjoyed it all the same. I wasnāt expecting him to be grilled. Donāt think thereās exactly any scandal or subject to grill Fergie on is there?
I thought he was honest enough about the illness and showing what he wrote down in the hospital. Having a cut off Rangers was also enjoyable.
Well his son wonāt ask anyway ā¦regards controversies defo something to ask about fall out with McManus and magner and impact it had on united in hindsight ā¦yeah that was great interview after cup final win over rangers ā¦he was seething that they didnāt hammer rangers ā¦
