30 for 30

Last night on Twitter I asked if you could make a 30 for 30 what you would do it on. The response was overwhelming. I'm gonna put down all the topics I was given and I'll be sure to mention which one are my favorites.


Bears-Packers
So much history here. This would be a great 30 for 30.

2010 Saints
I think instead of just the 2010 Saints they should do one on Katrina and how the team's return was embraced and the path that lead to the Super Bowl.

Barry Sanders story
This could be good

Curtis Martin
Interesting guy with an interesting story. Could be done well.

The Heart and Hustle Magic. Shaq and Penny. The departure of Shaq and the fall of the Magic.
This team fascinates me. I would love a 30 for 30 on them. Shaq leaving Orlando and how it destroyed the team for a decade. Penny's injuries. If any of these could have a 30 for 30 or just one big 30 for 30 on the team from the 90's up to the early-mid 2000's I would love it.

The 2004 Olympic Basketball Team
This could be a really good one. There's a lot of interest that comes with this team.

The 90's cowboys
Very popular for a reason.

Mawse and Jason Williams as HS teammates
Don't know much about these guys but a lot of people mentioned them.

John Thompson and Georgetown
College sports have a place in all our hearts.

Griffey Jr
Ken Griffey Jr was supposed to be an all time great. Injuries plagued him. I'd like to see one about him.

Lakers/Kings, Game 6 WCF 2002
A lot of people got excited when this one got mentioned. If done right could be great. I would love to see them buildup the greatness of the two teams at the beginning of it.

Tecmo Super Bowl
Maybe elaborate it to Sports and Video Games? Could be fun.

Malice at the palace
I think many of us have been asking for this one already. I still remember watching it happen live on TV.

The 99 Bulls
How does a team go from championship to nothing in one offseason? When MJ retires and other circumstances happen not even this sounds so crazy.

The ABA/NBA merger
I want this one. The ABA was so important to the NBA we have today.

The battle of lebron and carmelo back in their rookie years
If done right this could be fun.

Jordan's Flu Game
We all know about the famous flu game.

Summer of 98: Sosa & McGwire HR Race
This one you would have to get into Balco and Steroids. Could good if done well.

Kenny Anderson
Another one that could be really good.

I think what this makes obvious is that sports has tons of stories that we want to be told. There's a reason we love sports and the 30 for 30's show why we love sports. If you have any more suggestions leave them in the comments. I'd love to know what stories you want to have told.
