"I dont second guess the system...and I don't understand why you are doing this"?

-the former chief of police

GTFOH

yeah i was wonderin who the fuck that racist ass cracka was....makes perfect sense now....

im mad the dude he fought died at 35....wouldve loved to here his side...im surprised he didn't do any interviews at all regarding the fight.....

 

[bow to royalty]

I'm from Newport News (right next to Hampton, they talked bout it durin the show). This was put together real well. I'm too young to really get what was goin on at the time. It's interestin how much stuff's changed since then, or at least how different it is now than it appeared back then. Cool how they got an interviewer from the area too.

Some of those conspiracy theories were mad far fetched.

.... Too much focused on the bowling alley story wish it was more of a collective portrait of his career

What i took from this doc

1. race relations is still fucked up in this country

2. Alot of white people are ignorant to fact of other race/ethnicity struggle, sometimes i think some of them are soulless

3. AI story is like a lot of young black kids story

4. AI still come off as pretty ignorant and immature till this day, dude really needs to grow the fuck up

5. SMH at so many of those people had alterior motives (black pastor, judge, district attorney,coaches,etc).

 

[mike06]

AI was f*cked no matter what.

Damn

I'm talking the off the court shit mostly and him bailing out on the Grizzlies. He seem to have no problem playing into peoples expectations or him, and i don't mean that in a good way.
