Same here. Been looking forward to it. I've always felt that his critics (some were aholes) would have done the exact same thing...try to catch what looked to be a foul ball.

I mean I dont think Bartman should have done what he did especially during a big playoff game. But didnt the Cubs actually blow a lead to get to that point? Wasnt the Bartman game, game 6? So even if they lose game 6, they still had game 7.

Everyone seems to forgot a couple of other things. ONE, the Cubs SS made a HUGE error right after that with the bases loaded, 1 out and the game tied....it would have been a inning ending double play. TWO, good ole Dusty "I-have-no-clue-how-to-handle-a-pitching-staff" Baker, instead of removing their start pitcher Pryor after the game tying hit, he left them in there.

Yeah....it was ALL Bartman's fault.... LOL!

Yes still had chances after the foul ball flap, I think one the plays the kept the inning going was a error as SS for a booted ball

I saw the begining of the show last night, I would say the 1st 30 minutes or so....I will finish the rest later. I will not say anything incase someone recorded it and has not seen it. But so far, the documentary is excellent...as expected!

I saw the last half of the show and it was very interesting. I recommend it.

Man, Moises Alou is still an a**hole.

I have never heard of that until Alou...and Posada does that too? Geeez...

How about the guy who wanted to fight Bartman? He said to Bartman "Do you want to take this outside"? You were outside dumbass.

The actual governor of the state of Illinois chastised the guy on tv a day or two after the game!
