honkifyoulovejustice.com 5/23/2008 — One interesting idea (more of a dream, really) would be to have an OnDemand channel for any sporting event that’s been put to film. I got to thinking of just what I’d want to watch on there. Would I want to relive Championship memories for my favorite teams? See the best players of another era in their prime?
