I admit I have no idea he would be featured in this. Apparently he was a Student Aid at Boston College during this period

Been watching it ... remember it like yesterday. Shocked the college basketball world at the time.

Ernie Cobb was a great player. Jim Sweeney was the all american kid back then.

Posted in the MSB thread that in a story full of liars and criminals, Sweeney comes across as the biggest douche
of them all

It's hilarious that they took Jimmy down for that clusterfrick of a point shaving scheme. They won 5 bets and lost 3 and there was little to no evidence the players actually shaved any points. There was actually evidence that the players, or at least one of them, cost the mob two of the games.

One of the FBI guys says it in the doc, They Al Capone'd him. They couldn't get him on the Lufthansa Heist so the point shaving was the next best thing

Wasn't from my perspective. Always wondered why they didn't cover it more in Goodfellas.
