Abstract The two Escobars: "A gripping drama about the intersection of crime, sports and nationalism in 1990's Columbia. At a time when drug money fueled the sport known in the underworld as "narco-soccer", the fates of Andres Escobar, the inspirational captain of Nacional, and Pablo Escobar, the notorious leader of the Medellin cartel, were permanently linked. When Andre was murdered 10 days after scoring an own goal against the US in the first round of the 1994 World Cup, it cost the country more than a shot at the title."--Container.
Abstract The birth of big air: "Mat Hoffman is a BMX legend...10-time World Champion and X Games icon, he has a medical hit list that includes dozens of broken bones, concussions, and multiple comas. Some assume that Hoffman has a death wish, but actually, it's a life wish: to find out what's possible on a BMX bike."--Container.
Abstract Jordan rides the bus: "After leading the Dream Team to Olympic Gold and taking the Chicago Bulls to their third consecutive NBA championship, Michael Jordan walked away from the game of basketball. The story about the motivations that drove the world's most famous athlete to play a new sport in the relative obscurity of Birmingham, Alabama."--Container.
Abstract Little big men: "When Kirkland, Washington's Little League team shut out Taiwan in the 1982 championship game, it was called the "biggest upset in the history of Little League". What became of a group of childhood teammates when the high point in their athletic lives occurred before their lives had really begun."--Container.
Abstract One night in Vegas: "Part documentary, part graphic novel, this program explores the remarkable friendship between boxing legend Mike Tyson and one of hip-hop's greatest rappers, Tupac Shakur, culminating in the infamous night when Tupac was brutally killed."--Container.
Abstract Unmatched: "No individual sports rivalry can boast the same intensity and impact as that of Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova. But even more remarkable is what happened off the court, where they formed a strong and lasting friendship, bonding them to this day."--Container.
Abstract The House of Steinbrenner: "Documents the historic final days at the old Yankee Stadium, the opening of the new stadium and the passage from the George Steinbrenner era to the Hal Steinbrenner era, culminating in the Yankees' 27th World Championship."--Container.
Abstract Into the wind: "Three years after having his right leg amputated above the knee, Terry Fox set out the raise funds for cancer research by running a marathon's distance each day across Canada. In 143 days, he covered 3,339 miles, steadily capturing the heart of a nation and inspiring millions with his marathon of hope."--Container.
Abstract Four days in October: "When the night of October 16, 2004 came to a merciful end, the Curse of the Bambino was alive and well as the New York Yankees extended their ALCS lead to three games to none over the Boston Red Sox. But the cold October winds of change began to blow and over four consecutive days and nights, this determined Red Sox team miraculously won four straight games to overcome the inevitability of their destiny."--Container.
Abstract Once brothers: "Close friends and teammates, Drazen Petrovic and Vlade Divac grew up sharing the common bond of basketball. But when war broke out between Petrovic's Croatia and Divac's Serbia, long buried ethnic tensions surfaced and circumstances beyond their control tore their friendship apart."--Container.
Abstract Tim Richmond: to the limit: "Tim Richmond lives too fast, partied too hard and died too young. One of NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers of All Time, his unexpected withdrawal from racing kindled rumors about his health and potential drug use, when in fact, he had been diagnosed with AIDS. Presents a glimpse inside the little known story of one of NASCAR's shining stars."-Container
Abstract Fernando nation: "20-year-old Fernando Valenzuela was one of the most captivating pitching phenoms baseball has ever seen. Virtually overnight, he became a hero to millions of Latinos. Relive Valenzuela's impact on baseball, the Dodgers and the entire Los Angeles Mexican community."--Container.
Abstract Marion Jones: press pause: " Marion Jones captivated the world at the 2000 Summer Olympics, collecting three gold medals and two bronze. But her remarkable performance was soon tarnished. In 2007, she was stripped of her Olympic achievements and her freedom after a stunning admission that she had used performance-enhancing drugs. Follow the evolution of Marion Jones as she reflects on the past & attempts to find a new direction forward."--Container.
Abstract The best that never was: In 1981, Marcus Dupree was the most sought after high school senior in the country, but his short-lived football career was littered with oversized expectations, controversy, injury and conflict. Follow the poignant and compelling story of "the best that never was"."--Container.
Abstract Pony excess: In the early 1980's, the Southern Methodist University (SMU) Mustangs were one of the best college football teams in the nation, riding high on the backs of Eric Dickerson & Craig James' celebrated "Pony Express" backfield. Less than a decade later, the team would be shattered by the NCAA's first and only use of the "death penalty" on a college football team. Chronicles the rise, fall and rebirth of this once mighty team."--Container.
