    Yesterday had a gambler who became a pundit who lost it all cos of a racist remark which in truth was complimentary just phrased wrong.

    That ESPN film/documentary I mentioned earlier was a great watch. Certainly a unique perspective of a very interesting but controversial sports women as a result of her sex change.

    If all the ESPN films are as good I will have loads of watching over the next few weeks. The only other one I have previously seen is 'The Two Escobars'.

    Seen that one myself and think its really one of the best documenataries I've come across. I also watched 'The 16th Man' over the weekend and was a good reminder of what went on in South Africa in the build up to the 1995 rugby World Cup.

    Looking forward to watching a few more based on the recommendations from a few others on here.
