Anyone see this documentary (not to be confused with the WWII move Thin Red Line)?

It is my all-time favorite documentary. It's directed by Errol Morris. It's based on a true story of a man who was falsely accused of murder and spent around 20 years (not sure the exact number) on death row before finally being released and his name cleared.

On a dark night on a rural highway in Dallas in 1976, a Dallas police officer, Robert Wood, was shot and killed on a routine traffic stop.

A man by the name of Randall Adams was arrested, convicted and put on death row. He all along claimed his innocence. It turned out the man who really killed the officer was a minor (think he was 16 or 17) by the name of David Harris who was picked up as a hitchiker days before the murder by Randall Adams.

If you have not seen it find it and watch it. It is the most amazing documentary. Errol Morris is a fantastic director. David Harris was in prison on a non related charge when the documentary was filmed. He actually confesses to the murder on film.

There are a lot of sites you can go to to read about this amazing story. The odd part of it all is that Randall Adams is not the least bit bitter. I think after approximately 20 years on death row I would be wanting blood.

We've all done our charity work.

Damn, this guy is so good it's scary. Where's my wooden stake and silver bullets?

Big girls need lovin' too.

I want her. Now where did I put that 20 lb bag of flour?

What about electrolysis WHILE drinking? Have to be good odds for THAT!!!

Shit. Said I have 20 minutes to go. How many cigarettes and gin can I consume in that time frame? What's the record?

Yeah, Kramer nailed 'em. Said he only had to look two up. Which 2?

High noon? better make it midnight. You lightsaber won't glow in the daylight. Without a glowing sabre, it's just not that intimidating.

No way. I am bringing 2 blasters and a rabid wookiee.

As long as it gets to 3K, it's all good!

Well said. Hooyah!

So what's the odds at on how many city blocks get burned down when they find these officers not guilty?

I still say Ivans not so tough without his lightsaber.

Anyone remember the Le Car? Classic!!!

Labrys, save a front row seat for me when the riots start. We can drink scotch and watch the action, chasing them with jello shooters!

It is customary for a player that has played for more than one team to decide who he wants to be listed for. I am not flaming you by any means. I believe that that website lists every team a particuliar player played for. I haven't looked at all, but the few I did see on that site were like that.

A good example of this would be Emmit Smith. If he retired this year, it would look odd as listing him in Canton as a Cardinal after only one season.

Negative. He played one season with the Seahawks. I have been to Canton several times. He is listed as a Steeler.

Actually he's listed as a Steeler.

All correct.....except Kramer beat you to the punch.

Hooyah Kramer!

Lol don't post incomplete...those may be the ones Ivan doesn't have yet.

Will the legendary Ivan pull this one out before someone else? I have 2-1 he does!
