INSIDE THE NFL
(1977-2008)
Not the first original program on HBO Wimbledon coverage began in 1975 and there were a couple of comedy shows (On Location and Standing Room Only) but this weekly recap analysis show was the great-granddaddy of longevity. Even though HBO made the boneheaded decision to cancel it last year (INFL is now on Showtime), it was a refreshing oasis of sober football journalism in a sports TV world that increasingly steers towards boo-yah hyperactivity. And that awesome NFL Films footage didn't hurt.
