Mock the WWL all you want, but it's knocking them out of the park lately with two different series of short films: 30 for 30 and the It's Not Crazy, It's Sports commercials thing.

If you've spent time in or very near Alabama, you know this film is really not all that big of an exaggeration, closer to reality than it is to parody.

* I cannot find video of this one, but it's really great too. Off to gush about ESPN some more elsewhere, I guess.
