Default Do you save baseball shows/movies on your DVR?

I am passionate about baseball, and our hobby. I have a deep appreciation for the history of the game, and a seemingly endless thirst for knowledge. I never grow tired of watching anything to do with the game; I've probably watched Ken Burns' Baseball about ten times now.

As I was looking through the things I have saved on my DVR tonight, I began to wonder if any of my fellow forum members saved baseball movies, tv shows and specials like I do. I find the DVR to be invaluable, as my back makes it difficult to get out of bed much of time. So, while I may have a lot of the same movies on DVD or Blu Ray, the convenience of clicking a few buttons on my remote is a Godsend.

Here's what I have right now:

Ted Williams (HBO special)
Cobb
Chasing 3,000 (a movie about two brothers that travel around the country to ensure they see Roberto Clemente's 3,000th hit)
Moneyball
The Natural
Mantle (HBO special)
Eight Men Out
Hank Aaron: Brave Hero
The Jackie Robinson Story
The Curious Case of Curt Flood (HBO special)

I also save some football:

NFL Replay: Super Bowl XLV
Lombardi (HBO Special)
NFL Network's Top Ten: Top Ten Green Bay Packers
Namath (HBO Special)

What have you guys saved?

Brandon, your reply is rockin' my nuts off!

I am so happy there's going to be a 4th season. I thought that was it.

Don't have a DVR (I'm old school; don't have cable or satellite, either), but I have the following that I've purchased from the Playstation Store and have on my PS3 hard drive:

3 episodes: Golden Age of Baseball
1975 World Series, Game 6
1984 NL Championship Series, Game 5

Currently I have these two saved:

Remembering Roberto Clemente (was on ESPN a couple weeks ago).

Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story (Narrated by Dustin Hoffman. Highly recommend if you've never seen it).

I may be the all-time baseball film geek. I currently have just over 800 baseball videos and or DVDs.

In the group are films on history, biographies, yearly highlights, etc... About 80 of those films are movies, can't wait to purchase 42 when available. I started on this back in the mid-80s when the videos were making their debuts as mass merchandise pieces. During that period most of the MLB teams made films on their history sold by Scotch Tapes through MLB.

I then discovered that MLB Productions had a catalog of past films for sale dating to the 1960s. Many of these were in plain red or blue plastic cases and are fairly tough to find today.

Now I search the net looking for minor league and regional issues. Many times local PBS stations do films on baseball in their area and sell the DVDs. Same thing each year when the Baseball Hall of Fame has their annual film festival, I search out the film makers and ask to buy copies if they are not a commercial venture.

Sadly, I have more football films than I do baseball!

By the way the best buy of this year is the DVD of the first season of THIS WEEK IN BASEBALL available on Amazon, also MLB's production of "162" following all the critical games on the final day of the 2011 season.
