Season 1 Episodes
1. Deep into the Night
The moment the Yankees beat the Red Sox in the 2003 ALCS, the greatest rivalry in sports reaches its zenith, with the Bombers dynasty looking as indominable and inevitable as ever, and a rising Red Sox club turned aside. And in the middle of it all is Aaron Boone – a midseason addition to the Yanks from a baseball family – a truly unlikely hero.
2. The Price of Winning
The 1987 Edmonton Oilers entered the Stanley Cup Finals as the greatest hockey team ever, boasting 7 future Hall of Famers and two Stanley Cups under their belt. The Philadelphia Flyers, on the other hand, entered the series with a rookie goalie as their only hope, playing like they had nothing to lose. What resulted from this matchup was one of the most iconic Game 7s in hockey history.
3. The Euro Step
A generation of Europeans came to the NBA with skill and promise at the turn of the century, only to be thwarted by bigger, stronger competition stateside – that is, until Dirk Nowitzki took on the mighty Spurs in the 2006 playoffs.
4. Next Year
It had been 108 years since the Chicago Cubs had last won the World Series. And now, after trailing 3-1 in the series, the Cubs were one game away from ending the drought. But against the Cleveland Indians – a franchise with their own long title drought – it would take everything the Cubs had and more to win Game 7 of the 2016 World Series.
5. The Messiah Promised
After winning five Stanley Cups with the greatest dynasty in the history of modern hockey, Mark Messier risked his legacy to accomplish the impossible: winning in New York City.
