Did you see the ESPN 30 for 30 documentary "Catching Hell"? The Bartman incident is dissected better than some capital murder cases.

As a Marlins fan, Mr. Bartman will hold a special place in my heart until I die. (But even I know that's not the play that really changed the game; it was Alex Gonzalez's error a few plays later.) One day, I will get to Wrigley and sit in the seat with my Marlins gear on... like a pilgrimage to Mecca.

I haven't seen that. I have an irrational bias against documentaries, even ones about baseball.
