    Irish Thunder: The Hard Life & Times of Micky Ward , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 643min
    Micky Ward is THE FIGHTER that inspired the major motion picture. Welcome to Lowell, where anything can happen. Rocky Marciano fought at the Auditorium in 1947. Mike Tyson fought there in his Golden Gloves days. Sugar Ray Leonard won there, as did Marvin Hagler. Each of them prepared for his battle downstairs in the boiler room, just like thousands of other kids. “Irish” Micky Ward grew up in the 1970s and ’80s as a tough kid from Lowell, Massachusetts - a town where boxers were once bred as a means of survival. A hard worker who overcame bad luck, bad management, and chronic pain in his hands, he avoided the pitfall of poverty and dead-end work that plagued Lowell to become a Golden Gloves junior welterweight. Ward participated in street fights from an early age and was forever known by his opponents and spectators as the underdog. But with his incredible ability to suddenly drop an opponent late in a fight with his trademark left hook, he kept proving everyone wrong. After fifteen years of boxing, a string of defeats, and three years of retirement, Micky battled Arturo Gatti in 2002 in the battle that was later named “Fight of the Year” by Ring magazine and dubbed “Fight of the Century” by boxing writers and fans across the country. Ten rounds of brutal action ended with Micky winning by decision, and reviving enthusiasm for a sport that had been weighted down by years of showboating and corruption. ESPN and Boston television reporter Bob Halloran recounts Micky’s rise to hero status, his rivalry with his imprisoned brother, and the negotiations, betrayals, and drugs that ultimately shaped a wild youth into a nationally respected boxer. BOB HALLORAN is the weekend news and sports anchor at WCVB-TV in Boston. He is also a former ESPN anchor and columnist for ESPN.com. He has worked as a news and sports anchor in New England for over twenty years, and he writes a weekly column for Boston’s Metro newspaper. /p ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bronson Pinchot.

    Staying Ahead of the Posse: The Ben Jobe Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 405min
    Highlighted by the ESPN basketball documentary Black Magic, Ben Jobe's life and philosophy are captured in Staying Ahead of the Posse. This is history in the flesh, the history of basketball and the Civil Rights Movement, of desegregation and economic exploitation, of African independence and the modern-day plantation that is the American sports industry in general and the NCAA in particular. Ben's 40-plus years of coaching, teaching, nurturing, and mentoring intersected with and was influenced by all those factors. One generation removed from slavery, born in Little Hope, Tennessee, he was a 1956 graduate of Fisk University and coached at more than a dozen schools and across two continents, including leading the Southern University Jaguars to a historic upset in the 1993 NCAA basketball tournament. ungekürzt.

    I Do CrossFit, Therefore I Am an Athlete? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 16min
    There has been a huge debate on whether CrossFit should be considered a sport or not, and I took the gigantic step to solve this debate. One could say the sports-savvy fan will eventually watch ESPN at least once in their lifetime. What happens one day when his Sports Center is cut off by a CrossFit competition? Is this the next sport? Are CrossFit people alowed to call themselves athletes? What defines an athlete, and under what circumstances is one aloud to call themselves "professional" in an activity? I solve this debate from a neutral, non-biased perspective and get to the bottom of what CrossFit should be labeled. I am a certified professional trainer certified by the National Federation of Professional Trainers (Accredited by the NCAA), certificate number 44582. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Throwback Special , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 297min
    The Throwback Special is the story of 22 ordinary guys who gather each fall to reenact what ESPN has called "the most shocking play in NFL history": the November 1985 play in which Joe Theismann of the Washington Redskins had his leg horribly broken by Lawrence Taylor of the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. (The play was known by the Redskins as "the Throwback Special".) Over the course of a weekend, we follow the men as they choose roles; spend a long night of the soul revealing their secret hopes, fears, and passions as they prepare for the game; and finally enact their strange and yet oh, so American ritual for what may be the last time. With his trademark "microfine sense of humor and tragic sense of history" (Michael Chabon), Chris Bachelder fills his moving and very funny tale with pitch-perfect observations about manhood, marriage, and middle age. ungekürzt.
