The Bronx Is Burning

Anybody watching this on ESPN? I H-A-T-E the Yankees (but I kinda like Billy Martin) and Steinbrenner, but I can't help but get sucked into this story of the 1977 season. They also incorporate the Son Of Sam murders into the story.

Oliver Platt, Daniel Sunjata and John Turturro give Emmy worthy performances. This is "HBO quality" stuff.:aok :aok

Yes, I have been watching it.  I was a long time Reggie fan, and long time Red Sox fan, so we were well tuned into the Yanks.

Billy Martin was a jerk, and the show doesn't lessen the reality.
