would make more sense if we won a Naty.  story is kind of anticlimactic otherwise.

Plenty of 30 for 30's don't have championship endings. Winning Time (Reggie Miller), Trojan War, You Don't Know Bo, The Best that Never Was...

I would think that the ending would focus more on how HCBS has impacted the community.

I agree.  It's pretty spectacular that Manhattan went from this in 1989:


to present day Manhattan:



An amazing transformation in roughly 30 years.

In a mythical world where this might be made, I hope we would all do everything in our power to stop it.

We really have come a long way.  In 1989 we tore the goal posts down for beating North Texas.  Let that sink in..... North......  Texas......



I helped carry that bad boy all the way to aggieville, for those of you that were there, was that a Carl Straw throw to frank Hernandez or Paul Watson, I'm thinking Straw surely not that pike Cobb, he never played.
it’s not like I’m tired of WINNING, but dude, let me catch my breath.

Honestly, the real Miracle in Manhattan is how can Manhattan support a Super-Walmart AND a Target AND a Best Buy.

AND a world class collection of small town boutiques, emanating smells reminiscent of freshly cooked breakfast sausages and hand dipped candles.

Am I missing the joke here? Does trim's little brother really think this is what Manhattan looked like in 1989?

2 at one time.  Campus and Varsity?

Plus Westloop and Seth Child's

So a total of 4 at peak in the 90s?
