    Default 'Fab Five'

    Anyone watching the documentary on ESPN about the Fab Five? I'm an MSU fan at heart, but the story behind them being raised in such poverty stricken areas and how they got to where they are is extremely interesting. It's also cool seeing Ann Arbor on the big screen. Great city.

    Probably because of what he did and how it was so detrimental to the entire teams 'legacy'. He still hasnt apologized or owned up to any of it. There's lots of side to the story. Who knows what the truth is and if we'll ever be enlightened of it.

    I thought it was a very well done documentary, I liked it a lot. Too bad C Webb wasn't on it but it didn't take away from the story at all. Very interesting stuff.

    It's been 20 years so I cannot say I know him well now. Knew one another then, but not bff's or anything

    Tivo'd and going to watch later.

    Plano East put out some stellar athletes in '90 and '91. I also ran cross country with a fella by the name of Lance Armstrong...

    Unfortunately - none of that athletic awesomeness rubbed off on me via proximity - LOL
