New episode aired last night and directed by Morgan Spurlock who is one of the better
documentary filmmakers out there. The premise surrounding this one was how sports
agents have changed the pro and college sporting world for both the good and bad over
the years. They touch on the marketing of star athletes like Jordan, illegal payments to
college athletes, and also follow a couple of lower level college stars that sign with a young
agent. Following the college guys getting ready to choose an agent and getting ready for
the combine was my favorite part. Anyway, I found it worth a viewing, I am sure they will
be replaying this sometime this week. Check your local listings. I think it will likely be on
ESPN tomorrow if it's anything like Catching Hell.

I liked it a lot. I especially liked the young agent Eugene Lee.

This was my favorite storyline as well. Tough business.

Watched this last night and was going to post something about it but I smoked a lot of pot and forgot.

One of the best parts was Josh Luchs, when he drove up the the UCLA campus, parked his Mercedes and just stood there.Right by the locker room/weight room/practice field. Especially being a year after he paid the UCLA players.

Thanks TBone, for whatever reason my "view upcoming" selection didn't show these last night. I really wanted to see the half I missed.
