A Broncos-Chargers late slot game from San Diego was seemingly always the realm for NBC Sports legend Charlie Jones during the 1980s.

Here, Charlie and Jimmy Cefalo break down the quarterback matchup between Hall of Famers John Elway and Dan Fouts in 1987.

The movie summed up in 1 tracking shot, they get the best seats, money, the glamour etc but they have to go through the back door to get it

Tony Soprano could forgive a lot of things. But being a liability? That was a different story.

Christopher is falling apart mentally, making reckless mistakes, and admitting that sleeping is the only thing he enjoys anymore. Instead of offering real support, Tony turns his pain into another reason to humiliate him.

The most revealing part? Tony recognizes that Christopher might be depressed, but he has no idea how to deal with it without cruelty.

In Tony’s world, you can be a criminal, an addict, or a killer but showing emotional weakness might be the most unforgivable thing of all.

Was Tony genuinely concerned about Christopher, or was he only worried that Christopher was becoming a liability?

Amazon released this “highlight reel” of the Rocky franchise in honor of the 50th anniversary of the first film.

Inject this directly into my soul.

Obscure director's cut of the day: Not available in the U.S. is Bertrand Tavernier's original cut of IN THE ELECTRIC MIST (2009) w Tommy Lee Jones (as James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux), John Goodman, Mary Steenburgen, Pruitt Taylor Vance & Kelly MacDonald!

It's embarrassing to admit that I grew up with Adam West Batman reruns in the 1980s and as a kid thought the show was funny but embarrassing & corny. Now I find it completely delightful & realize the writers knew exactly what they were doing.

Matthew Bevilaqua made the mistake of thinking he could play in the big leagues before understanding the rules.

He and Sean thought killing Christopher would earn them respect and move them closer to the top. Instead, they created a problem they had absolutely no power to control.

What makes Tony’s involvement so chilling is how quickly the situation stops being about revenge and becomes about the rules of the organization. Christopher was one of their own, and Matthew’s attempt to climb the ladder has now made him a liability.

The panic, the begging, the sudden realization that nobody is coming to save him—that’s what makes the scene so brutal.

In Tony’s world, ambition without patience can be deadly. Matthew wanted to be somebody. He never understood what that would cost.

A chilling moment — deleted from the final cut — when Tom Hagen visits studio head Jack Woltz and spots a young girl trapped upstairs.

The Pete Rose-Bud Harrelson Brawl

With the New York Mets leading the Cincinnati Reds 9-2 in the top of the fifth inning of Game 3 of the 1973 National League Championship Series, the Reds' Pete Rose attempts to break up a double play and slides hard into Mets shortstop Bud Harrelson.

The two throw hands, and a nasty bench-clearing melee ensues behind second base.

The fight had stemmed from self-deprecatory comments made by the notoriously light-hitting Harrelson following Game 2, to which the Reds took umbrage: "The Big Red Machine looked like me hitting out there."

In the bottom of the inning, after order is seemingly restored, fans at Shea Stadium proceed to shower Pete Rose with debris (including soda cans and a whiskey bottle) in left field.

Reds manager Sparky Anderson pulls his players off the field, and National League president Chub Feeney threatens the Mets with a forfeiture if they could not get the crowd under control.

A contingent of Mets — including Willie Mays, Tom Seaver, and manager Yogi Berra — walk to left field and are successful in calming the fans.

The video includes Bob Murphy's classic radio call, an NBC news report featuring Jim Simpson's television call, and comments made years later by Harrelson and Rose.

Alec Baldwin & James Gandolfini acted together in the 1992 Broadway revival of "A Streetcar Named Desire". They reunited in 1996's "The Juror".
Alec was a big Sopranos fan and hoped to be cast on the show. In the end, his brother Daniel took him to acting school.

Walter Lantz cartoons were never known for being witty or sophisticated, but he had a multi-decade deal with Universal

In 1966, this non-Lantz cartoon FUNNY IS FUNNY by Carl Reiner came out

It's cynical, pitch black humor, and never showed up on dvd, blu-ray, or TV syndication

[best of mafia cinema @TheMafiaPoint]

What makes this scene so powerful is what happens later, when Michael asks Tom in Italian, “So, you’ll stay?” Michael desperately wants him not to leave. He needs Tom to stay, but by this point he has lost so much of his humanity that intimidation is the only way he knows how to hold on to someone.

Michael has lost his parents, two wives, his brothers, and, until then, his sister. He cannot stand the thought of losing Tom too. Tom is the only one he has left.
