What would it take to get Brittney Griner safely back home was a constant question after her arrest in February 2022 at a Moscow airport. It required an arms dealer known as The Merchant of Death, Viktor Bout, to be exchanged for prisoners between the United States and Russia. ESPN’s T.J.
Quinn kept a close eye on the story right away, providing us with the names, locations, and happenings we required to know. One year after Griner’s return to his native country, he detailed the entire ordeal in detail on ESPN.com earlier this month, including excerpts from his chat with Bout. In the second installment of our in-depth examination of Griner’s incarceration, Quinn describes the discussions that resulted in Griner’s release, and we hearfrom Viktor Bout, who is arguably the most significant individual involved.
Few reporters followed Brittney Griner’s case as closely as ESPN’s TJ Quinn after her arrest at a Moscow airport in February 2022. He obtained numerous firsthand accounts and behind-the-scenes information from numerous sources who devoted their lives to securing her release from a Russian prison cell during her ten-month incarceration. But much of that information could not be released for fear of endangering Griner. TJ was finally able to write a detailed account of the entire ordeal earlier this month, which happened to be the one-year anniversary of Griner’s return home. Today, we’ll concentrate on a single aspect of that reporting:
the lengthy months Griner was imprisoned, which includes fresh details about her time spent in a prison colony built during the Soviet era and the affection she received from the guards.and her fellow inmates, as well as her valiant demonstration of tenacity and mental toughness. We’ll be back tomorrow with part two: an inside look at the arduous talks to bring Griner home.
After fifteen weeks of the NFL season, we still don’t have all the answers regarding the playoff race, even though we wish we did. The Buffalo Bills, whose season appeared to be finished a few weeks ago, have unexpectedly won back-to-back games against the Chiefs and Cowboys to resurrect their season…and in the process, they made Dallas appear nothing like the contenders we’ve seen in recent weeks. And can a victory on Monday night stop the Eagles, who we believed to be the best team in the NFL, from losing? Kevin Clark returns to the show today to discuss his observations from yet another week of NFL drama and to explain how it all builds to an exciting final few weeks.
Victor Wembanyama’s rookie season is almost 25% complete, and it’s going about as well as anyone could have imagined. Through his first 22 games, he averaged more than 19 points and nearly 11 rebounds per game, looking every bit the generational talent—or alien, as LeBron James dubbed him—that was expected of him. We thought this would be a good time to check in with our resident young basketball phenom reporter, Andrew Lopez, as he tells us what he’s seen from Wemby both on and off the court, especially with the Lakers rematch airing tonight on ESPN.
We’re completely enamored with the Top 10 lists. These days, it seems like there is a Top 10 list for everything, including Netflix series, pizza toppings, and highlights. What about the Bottom 10, though? That’s right, with the assistance of ESPN’s “Bottom 10” columnist Ryan McGee, we’re forgoing tradition and upending the college football landscape. After a year, McGee offers his perspective on the FBS landscape from the bottom up, following his ode to quirky bowl games. And we reflect on a few major programs that may have felt like bottom dwellers themselves for a week or so.
Pound and ground. For the first 100 years that college football was played, that was the standard for offenses. However, everything changed when a coach by the name of Hal Mumme connected with a LA lawyer by the name of Mike Leach. Playbooks were thrown aside. They threw passes. There were record breakings. Thus was born the Air Raid offense. These days, on game day, everyone is doing this, even Patrick Mahomes and the quarterback from your local high school. And when done well, it’s really entertaining to watch. Thus, Dave Wilson tells us today about the origins of this creative offense and how this once-taboo idea transformed the game of football forever.
One thing became evident while the entire baseball community held their breath waiting for any news regarding Shohei Ohtani’s free agency: this would not be MLB’s take on LeBron James’ The Decision. Ohtani’s camp and the teams that were reportedly in the running for his services—well, most of them—were completely silent. But even with the most optimistic expectations dashed, when the dust settled on Saturday, the numbers remained astounding: Ohtani will join the Los Angeles Dodgers on a 10-year, $700 million contract, with $680 million of that amount being deferred until 2034. Alden Gonzalez thus describes how this partnership between the top player in the sport and one of itsthe most marketable groups came together, regardless of the cost tells us about both sides…and what the fallout might be across the Big Leagues.
