UCLA First to 100 TV Special

I am not sure if this has been posted yet, but I did not catch it in my search.  FSN is playing a half-hour television special on UCLA's First to 100 Championships accomplishment.  There are interviews with a lot of our great coaches, and if you do not already know who Morgan and Ackerman were, you can find out by watching this show.

Star-divide

One theme that was repeated over and over throughout the program was that at UCLA you are expected to win. It's like it is in our blood. Many of the coaches said that they usually felt good being in 2nd or 4th place in the country until they went into their annual meeting and heard about everyone else being #1.  Then they realized they had to get their butts in gear (I am paraphrasing of course).

Anyway, I won't spoil the show by giving anymore away.  I'll just say that, similar to the special they ran on John Wooden, there were moments in this program that gave me goosebumps.

Here is a link to the remaining showtimes on schedule.  Hopefully it still works.  Channel numbers are specific to Time Warner Cable in Orange County.

Just in case it doesn't, here are the showtimes I see listed for the Southern California area:

(Sorry for the horrible formatting. I couldn't get the table tag to work, and I have to run somewhere right now. Maybe someone can help me fix this.  Thanks.)

Thanks, haven't seen it + A Bruin Rewind Question
Looking forward to checking it out.

Since we are talking about the Bruins on TV, this is as good a thread as any to ask this...

Does anyone have the past two years of Bruin Rewind on DVD or a tape?  

I have them all on my tivo, but haven't had much luck swaping them to another format.

Also, why don't they do a Rewind type show during the basketball season?

I saw it at a bar
was able to hear only some of it .. the images alone, outside all the interviews, were spine tingling.
