Did anyone catch this episode earlier this evening? I did, and I thought it was great and fascinating.

Here a [commentary](http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/whats-alan-watching/posts/30-for-30-unmatched-my-enemy-my-ally?m=g).

If you like Tennis, try to catch a repeat of it. I got a _Thelma and Louise_ vibe out of it.

> I liked, for instance, hearing them talk about how, public assumption to the contrary, Evert was the tough and ruthless one, while Navratilova was more sensitive and vulnerable

watching some of the points that they played, it is incredible how much faster the game is today.

I chuckled when they told about their double date. Yes, Martina was with a guy, Dean Martin’s son. He liked her muscles.
