I enjoyed the film on Georgetown baketball very much. I was wondering if there were any more films you could provide on this subject. This was my first time on this site and I enjoyed it very much. I am an instant fan and I plan on visiting your site often. Thank you. Posted 11/06/08 by lorna
Hi, I just came across your site and found it very interesting but unfortunately i’m not able to view the movie. I get the advertisement at the beginning but the movie takes a very long time to load and it happens with all the movie and not any one in particular. |
