Really Surprised!

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

30 for 30 Shorts: Fields of Fear (2014)Another very entertaining entry in the ESPN series. This one here takes a look at the talented catcher Mackey Sasser whose career pretty much came to an end when he was unable to get the ball back to the pitcher in a reasonable amount of time. Sasser is on hand to discuss his career, which had him as a very important player but after a crash at home plate he came down with a case of the "Yips" that prevented him from getting the ball back to the pitcher. The mental side of sports is something that should really be looked at more often, which is what this short pretty much does. We see Sasser's career pretty much fall apart and then later in life he decides to try and find out why. We see him working with a couple doctors who trace his mental issues back to various traumas from his childhood. This is a very interesting short because you do get to see what an important role your mind plays in sports. There are some examples of other players who suffered from mental blocks and it's pretty incredible that it's something we don't see more often.Episode: A-
