leopold you will love it....Its very cool and hard hitting...its almost overwhelming all the faces from the 80's, action shots from TV at the time and clips of old and the $$$$ was flowing everywhere.
I look forward to watching it again because i know I missed some things. I do like the part where Steve Endicott says he offered a TAMU commit $20,000 cash to come to SMU and he just said..."you aren't even close'....

I'm glad it was Thad that told the story. He did a great job. hopefully, the nation will understand how prevalent the "situation" was across the entire SWC, Austin and College Station included.

Don't recall ever hearing Johnny Cash during the movie. Of course I might have been caught up in the whole thing. Great use in the trailer though.

It is from the promo playing on both ESPN Radio and TV with clips from the movie but the Johnny Cash song is not in the movie itself.

The Johnny Cash singing promo is up on Facebook here:

You young whippersnappers weren't even born when the Pony Express ran wild. You can't even imagine just how awesome the team was. We running with the big dogs. When we didn't play in '87 and '88, we had to cancel games with the likes of LSU and Michigan, as I recall.

I think it was a home game with OU and a home/road series with Notre Dame. But not 100% sure. Makes sense because we played OU in Norman in 1985 and were owed a home game and Notre Dame kept on on their schedule in 1989

I think they borrowed it from Thad's original "Article 19" promo for the Doc before 30 for 30 picked it up.

Whatever Gramps!

I was eight! I was totally alive, and totally oblivious to the Mustags then- If it didn't have a 'Hasbro' logo somewhere on the box I couldn't care less!
