Unknown Host hosts Press Box Chronicles, a society show with 73 episodes published.

Today, we're diving into what was one of the worst things I've ever worked on. Back in 1999, Sports Illustrated's decided it wanted to make an end of the century 50 Greatest Athletes Of All-Time List. Except, they wanted
Today, we're diving into one of my favorite - and I mean one of my FAVORITE - quarterbacks of all-time: Doug Williams. Everyone knows Williams as the first black QB to win a Super Bowl, but his story goes so much deeper.
Today, we're diving into one of the most requested stories we've ever gotten on this channel, except, with a twist. It's 1986 and the NBA has one of the most promising athletes coming out of college: Len Bias of Maryland
Move over, Dave Kingman. Aubrey Huff would like a word on being officially titled Baseball's biggest A**hole. Today, we're diving into the great baseball career - and not so great, tragic, homophobic post-playing career
A couple months ago, Netflix's UNTOLD docuseries did a piece on the early-2000's Portland Trailblazers, unaffectionately known as the 'Jailblazers.' What followed was one of the laziest pieces of storytelling that I've s

It's the Season 3 Finale! Our final episode of the season takes a look at one of the most influential, culturally important figures in NBA history: Allen Iverson. Except in this story, it's my first-hand account of flyin
Today, we're diving into a sports-adjacent story that has haunted many fans for decades. In 1984, the San Francisco Giants debuted one of the most hilarious, horrendous and absurd mascots in sports history. Ladies and Ge
Today, we're diving into one of the most incredible, inspiring, awesome stories I've witnessed. It's the story of a former discus thrower who turned out to be one of the most dynamic running backs in NFL history. Then, i
There are some stories that, before you're assigned them, you think you have it figured out. In 2017, I was assigned by Bleacher Report to write about the mysterious death of Bryce Dejean-Jones, and what I found out was
Today, we're diving into one of my most embarrassing, regrettable, egregious stories of all time. I'm a young, 20-something year old writer at Sports Illustrated, sent to Toronto, Canada to profile one of the best pitche
Today's subject matter is very difficult. It's a look into the saga of Ray Rice, the former Baltimore Ravens running back who was caught on camera assaulting his wife in February 2014. Today, we're diving into the rise,
Today, we're diving into a story that hits home - literally. Today, we're talking about hometown heroes, and how Dave Fleming, from my little town in New York, made it all the way to the Major Leagues. Have any guests yo
For the last few weeks, we've highlighted the good guys, the good stories, and the feel good moments of being a journalist covering sports. Not today. Today, we're diving into the biggest phony I've ever covered in baseb
Today, we're talking about my (unfortunately) favorite football team again, the New York Jets. Except today, we're diving into the greatest wide receiver duo in franchise history: Keyshawn Johnson and Wayne Chrebet, the
Today, we're diving into one of the worst draft picks of all-time, and a guy with perhaps the coolest name of all-time: Yinka Dare. It's 1991, and while driving down the side of a road in Lagos, Nigeria, a 6'10" Yinka Da
People gravitate towards a**holes -- If you watch this show, you know some of our biggest episodes are about the biggest a**holes in sports. But today, we're going in a different direction. Today, we're talking about arg
We've had some insane stories on the is show, but today might take the cake. It's 1969, and Ron LeFlore is a kid in Detroit who goes to prison for armed robbery, stealing $35,000 in cash. Less than 5 years later, having
Today, we're diving into one of my favorite comeback stories. Jim Palmer was a standout pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles, who called it a career in 1984. Seven years later, he decided he wasn't finished with the game he
