In light of a recent update to the Michael Oher chronology, Bradford William Davis joins us to discuss an ugly cultural relic: 2009's The Blind Side. This movie was nominated for Best Picture and won Sandra Bullock an Oscar. Why are some calling it "one of the worst films of the decade"? Are we among those people? Would it make Obama's end of year list? We connect the book's author, Michael Lewis, to another of his financially exploitative bestsellers that rocked the sports world: Moneyball. Someone should probably start asking that guy some questions.
