09-08-2025This is a really poorly done DVD, apparently the good clips cost too much so the producers assembled a hodge podge of irrelevant ABC moments and haphazardly edited them into this piece. Example, the classic opening theme and montage, you know.. "The Thrill of Victory, and the Agony of Defeat" is entirely missing! How can you do a ABC Sports DVD and NOT include that???Also, it looks like a cheaply done transfer, almost like a remaster of a VHS to DVD.
