Re: TCM football movies (Tue, Sep 5, 8pm ET)
If you have a cable, satellite, or streaming subscription that includes TCM, you can watch these movies for a limited time (for about 30 days after they air) on the WatchTCM app for iOS or Android, or on the Watch TCM webpage. I am not aware of any way to capture the stream like a DVR would do, but ...

Re: TCM football movies (Tue, Sep 5, 8pm ET)
North Dallas 40 was really good. Exposed the Cowboys due to Pete Gent's experiences. I forget if he said this after reading the book or seeing the movie (neither of which GM Tex Schramm or HC Tom Landry approved), but Don Meredith supposedly said, if he had known Gent's hands were that good, he wou...

Re: 1986- The fall of 3 football empires
Whose 1986 fall from grace was the most surprising? [snip] Also, poor draft day decisions in Big D were catching up to them (like Rod Hill in 82 and Kevin Brooks in 85).
