In relation to McEnroe here is a video for those who never saw him play or saw how he was in court. Before Sampras this guy was the best...Never was, never will be another McEnroe.

Just for another FYI a recent study shows that McEnroe's rants were justified 80% of the time.....80 %

That's 8 out of 10 rants. So you might be saying. He was a lunatic but proof says he was right 80% of the time

I'm not sure if I can post outside links so I'll just leave it here until a moderador comes:

Not often do I watch this kind of documentary, I'm sure it would be interesting but I probably won't ever get around to watching it.

That will be a pass.

I tend to avoid documentary films on sports. They usually are not that interesting to me. After review of the trailer I just don't think I'll be watching this one. Looks like a good one for those interested in the sport though.
