Favorite ESPN 30 for 30 Documentaries

I am a huge documentary fan! I particularly enjoy sports documentaries probably more than I enjoy watching sports. With this being a holiday season I figured many of you are sitting at home and many be in the mood to watch a documentary or 2. Here is a list of my 3 favorite ESPN 30 for 30 documentaries. This is based off of the first line of documentaries that aired on ESPN between Oct 6th 2009 and Dec 11 2010. All of the films were directed by famous directors. All of them are home-runs wonderful documentaries and I think they can all be streamed on Netflix. If you don't have Netflix you are welcome to borrow them from me I have them all on DVD. Here is a list of all of the documentaries:

30 for 30

3. Small Potatoes: Who Killed the USFL?

This is the story of the little professional football league that could until being brought down by greed. If you enjoy this documentary also try "Once in a Lifetime: the Story of the New York Cosmos" another great documentary from ESPN that would be on this list if it was a a 30 for 30 documentary.
 
2. Once Brother

This is probably the most powerful sports story ever told that most people have never heard of. If you are a history nut particularly a war history nut you have to see this movie. Honorable mention for this list and a documentary you should check out if you enjoy this one is "The Two Escobars".

1. Pony Excess

The last in the series and in my opinion the best. This documentary goes need into the rise and fall of Southern Methodist football. If you enjoy this one you might enjoy "The U" as well. Fun game to play while you watch "The U": spot all of the times you see Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson. He was all over Miami U football. It weird the WWE never really played of The Rock's football success.
