Description: Jordan rides the bus: After leading the Dream Team to Olympic Gold and taking the Chicago Bulls to their third consecutive NBA championship, Michael Jordan walked away from the game of basketball. Jolted by the tragic loss of his father, Jordan decided to pursue a lifelong ambition and play baseball. His brief career in the minor leagues was subject to intense media scrutiny and ridicule, but those who knew him best understood his need to honor his father by fulfilling their dream.

Little big men: On August 28, 1982, Cody Webster and a small group of schoolyard friends from Kirkland, Washington, sat anxiously in a dugout waiting to take the field for the championship game of the Little League World Series. No American team had won a true international Little League World Series championship in more than a decade. What they did, how they did it, and what happened to each of the players in the years that followed is a multifaceted story, much like the diamond on which the game is played.

One night in Vegas: Part documentary, part graphic novel, Director Reggie Rock Bythewood explores the remarkable friendship between boxing legend Mike Tyson and one of hip-hop's greatest rappers, Tupac Shakur, culminating in the infamous night when Tupac was brutally killed.
Notes: Originally broadcast as individual episodes of the ESPN documentary series 30 for 30 in 2010.
