I would heartily recommend the documentary "Brian Clough - The Greatest Manager England Never Had".

Here's the series of lectures I mentioned in the "Free Will" thread:

http://webcast.berkeley.edu/playlist#c,s,Spring_2006,PL095393D5B42B2266

It's a Berkeley course called "Physics for Future Presidents," and it's a general introduction to physics and stresses concepts rather than math.

The funniest part is near the end where Dr. Muller describes the Nemesis theory; which he postulates is responsible for the comet which killed off the dinosaurs.  As part of the paper he and his colleagues proposed three names for the sun's twin, Nemesis (the Greek god who punished mortals who grew too powerful), Shiva (the destroyer of worlds) and, George (for the saint who slew the dragon.)

Science magazine edited their article and just used the name Nemesis.  Stephen Jay Gould, then, got upset at the Eurocentricism and said that they should have named it Shiva.  Anglo-Centric as it may be, I think it would have been much better had Science named it George.

  That's awesome.  Gotta send that to my brother.  He spends a lot of time on those things (and likes beer).

They need 1955 game 7 for us Yankee haters and 1970 game 2 for all baseball fans of refined tastes.

They should also post the audio of Game 7 of 1934, the oldest complete game recording in existence.  That would be sweet.

Replace Psy and Snoop with a random Korean and Expat and this is a pretty accurate rendition of The Life™ in the R.O.K.

So you like horribly blown calls?  The Denkinger call is the worst black eye on the sport since the color line.

I can't believe they were able to film this in a single take ... !

I haven't seen those games since I was 10.  All I know was that my favourite baseball team won the world series.

Then look at this.  LOOK AT IT.
