    People need to actually watch the episode before making random comments like "jim brown". They talked about jim brown on the show.

    Watched it last night. It was pretty good. It seemed like they had to work real hard to fit everything into 42 minutes though. This one should have been 2 hours!

    I loved the very end when Earl ends the interview and says "come on, you guys said you wanted a picture, let's take a picture.....let's have some fun."

    That's Earl in a nutshell.

    I grew up a Denver Broncos fan but aside from John Elway, Earl Campbell is my favorite player ever. He was just that fun to watch.

    STILL remember that Monday night game vs. Miami when he went off. So incredible.

    I don't have to watch the show to respond to someone claiming that Earl was THE most intimidating running back ever.

    I heard Rich Lord saying on the radio yesterday that this documentary is EXACTLY THE SAME as some other documentary called Still Standing. They just used a different narrator.

    If so, that's really lame....

    They cut down the runtime also.
