Sports Junkies Rejoice! The Birth of ESPN - available in paperback

Wherever I travel I'm always asked, "Where did you get the idea and how did you start ESPN?" Simple questions - complicated answers! You'll learn those answers and much more in the new paperback edition of my book, Sports Junkies Rejoice! The Birth of ESPN, now available on ESPNFounder.com.

If you pride yourself on knowing everything there is to know about ESPN, you'll need to own this book to cover all the bases. Do you know about the $9,000 credit card advance, the first advertiser on ESPN, or the cost of ESPN's first satellite transponder? Or why ESPN is in Bristol, Connecticut? All that and more about the early days is covered, including Memorial Day 1978 - when it all really got started . . .

Sports Junkies Rejoice! The Birth of ESPN is my personal account of the launch of the Total Sports Network founded over 30 years ago. On September 7, 1979, ESPN went on the air for the first time as the first 24 hour network. This is a great gift for Dads and Grads!
