au21tigers 0 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Did anyone see this? It was very touching and moving. The best 30 for 30 thus far. If you haven't seen it's worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 CRAP!! I forgot about it being on. I have met Chris. His uncle was a customer of mine before he passed away. Chris created a very difficult road for himself. I am so glad he has turned his life around and helping others, too. I will catch the replay.

Gettting traded to Boston sent him back downhill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augolf1716 21,434 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Never heard of him but I just finished reading the cover. Wow guys lucky to be alive. Hopefully I can catch a rerun of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 ESPN2 replayed it tonight. I got to see it. WOW!! What a powerful piece. I commend ESPN Films and Jon Hock on a very well done documentary. Every High School athlete, for that matter every HS student, should be forced to sit down and watch this. It is that powerful. If you get a chance, watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney 10 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 The best thing about ESPN has been the 30 for 30 series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Agree...an excellent program...recommended it to my son for his twin 13 year olds....not quite G rated but every teen should see it. A major "life lesson" and a well told story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 This excellent show will be replayed on ESPN2 on Thursday, 11/10 at 7PM CST. It is a must see. If you have teenagers force them to sit down and watch it. If you are in your teens or early 20s watch this show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weegle777 78 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 What's it about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 The story of Chris Herren, former NBA player. He is an addict. He was addicted to alcohol and many different drugs during his college and NBA careers. It ruined a very promising career. He is clean now and teaches basketball to youths and tells his story to groups. His story is very inspiring and touching. It is a very well done program by ESPN.
