The Early Days of ESPN
Our Mission
This book is dedicated to the 'SPNauts who believed in a dream. It is the adult version of The Little Engine That Could. Author Peter Fox takes you through skunks and romance in the SportsCenter through untold stories by friends like Chris Berman and Founder Bill Rassmussen. It should go to all those "All Sports Will Never Work" doubting Thomas types.
This one's for you, Tom!
Our Story
There is a forever dramatic moment on the evening of September 7, 1979 when Peter and colleagues threw the switch to change sports television and maybe even sports forever. This book chronicles the curvy, crazy, giddy, sexy days of riding ESPN's early rocket into business history. It's about the people, the daydream and the nightmares.
