    What’s wrong with Rocky? Bill, CR and Van. It’s great so far.

    I watched the car chase on YouTube. As far as train scenes go I certainly wouldn't put it on the level of Spider-Man 2, but it was fine.

    Listening to the Rocky pod, cr said he was surprised this isn’t a Hackman movie. And BS says he is “waiting on the results.”

    I guess he means the Hackman death and whether there is any weirdness or foul play?

    I assume he sent a text out on who wants to do what movie and is sifting through the responses. Brandt and Absolute Power? Amanda and Mallory for Heartbreakers? Wesley for The Birdcage? Van for Mississippi Burning? All star cast for Superman Or Sean and CR for The French Connection?

    Bill shitting on Schrager for credibly reporting that “the giants feel they aren’t far away from competing” was glorious. That was embarrassing shit from Scrager. My god.

    Off topic, but I realized today I was paying for Puck, so after I canceled I started reading some of the Ringer's own Matt Belloni. Every time I read or listen to him I feel like I need to take a shower afterward. The entire gossip industry feels so slimy, and his is the "classy" gossip rag.

    I feel like he’s been ramping it up again, which is weird with his daughter becoming an adult during the same time frame. I think Van encourages it.

    I mostly think lists like this can be fun but to not limit it by sport or country is silly. Linsanity at 11?

    Helmet Catch at 1 def got someone fired

    Im not sure which one it is but the list absolutely required GWB first pitch at yankee stadium after 9/11 in the World Series or Luis Gonzalez game 7 walk off that same year.

    Jeter backhand against the A’s is an iconic yankee image too.

    Malice at the Palace as well.
