This was a good documentary, shows how good the media is at molding and manipulating people, till they get so mad about something they are willing to call a 12 year old girl a slut or anything else. The theme was pretty much I HATE Duke and Christian Laettner and I have no clue why. I like sports and I'm passionate about them,but when fans start getting disrespectful and hateful over them it kind of brings the fun down.

Back then Laettner was portrayed like this Tebow-like golden boy, clean cut, while at the same time being the dirtiest player in the game. This is during the same time the teams like the Fab Five was being beat up in the media and by their own boosters by not being so clean cut ,or what this board calls c00ns. (I wonder what they would have said if there was a black player doing all the dirt Laettner was doing.) Basically, the landscape was different from what it is now. Duke was considered the team of entitled white America. Nobody really hated Grant Hill though
Edit: I didnt really hate dude until he snatched everybody's soul in that Kentuck game. And i was mad he made the dream team over Shaq
