When the federal government catches hotshot financial adviser Louis Martin “Marty” Blazer defrauding his NFL-player clients, it’s time to come clean. He has no reasonable defense. What he has is a bigger story to spill to the feds—that of a multibillion-dollar conspiracy that exploits the most talented college athletes and implicates one of the most popular entertainment industries in the nation. The DOJ is listening, and the truth could literally set Marty free. All he has to do is prove that the NCAA is a vast ongoing scam.

In a spectacular duel that became known as the Iron War, the world's two strongest athletes raced side by side at world-record pace for a grueling 139 miles.

After 8 punishing hours, both men would demolish the previous record - and cross the finish line a mere 58 seconds apart.

Stefano Piri ripercorre la vita e la carriera di Baggio a partire dalla sua magica apparizione a Vicenza, quando non ha ancora vent'anni e sembra un angelo spietato che inchioda gli avversari a terra.

Le gare non sono mai state una passeggiata per me, ma quella lotta all’ultimo respiro io la cercavo. Se capivo di dover entrare in acqua e combattere alla morte, l’adrenalina mi scorreva ed ero felice. La condizione ideale per gareggiare era sentirmi un animale braccato. La sera prima di una gara quasi non mangiavo. Era la tensione, certo, ma anche un modo di prepararsi all’assalto, come il lupo che prima di andare a caccia per affrontare la lotta digiuna, dimagrisce. La fame o l’inappetenza non erano solo forme nervose, ma manifestazioni di un atavico istinto al combattimento.

Old Trafford, Manchester, 28 maggio 2003. Lo sguardo rivolto più volte verso l'arbitro, rincorsa lunga e gol. Il rigore decisivo contro la Juventus, in una finale di Champions League tutta italiana. Questo è il ricordo indelebile che Andriy Shevchenko, Pallone d'oro nel 2004, ha lasciato nei tifosi del Milan. Già da bambino sentiva che il suo destino sarebbe sta- to quello del calciatore, fin da quel marzo 1986, quando fu selezionato per entrare nei piccoli della Dynamo: il tempo di qualche allenamento poi saltò in aria il reattore numero 4 nella centrale nucleare di Chernobyl.

Carlo Ancelotti, uno dei grandi protagonisti del calcio italiano, racconta la sua vita con la schiettezza e lo spirito pungente che derivano dalle sue origini contadine. "Uno su mille ce la fa", e lui è quell'uno. Centrocampista forse un po' lento, ma caparbio e con una lucida visione di gioco, ha avuto due grandi maestri, uno agli antipodi dell'altro: Liedholm e Sacchi. Da lì, la vocazione irresistibile a fare l'allenatore. Attenendosi semplicemente ai risultati, Carletto da Reggiolo ha vinto tutto. Eppure, la sua carriera sembra un percorso avventuroso.

Documenting multiple challenges at every turn - as a target for racism from society at large and sexism both inside and outside of the Negro League - this is the unique story of the first woman to play professional baseball on a men's team, breaking barriers in sports while believing, "There's got to be a first in everything. Maybe it will be me."
