Show Notes
Legendary ESPN anchor Bob Ley joins Trey to dissect the events of 9/11 and how covering the seismic event on SportsCenter has stayed with them 20 years later.
They detail the editorial decisions behind the scenes of whether or not to do a show, the inner conflict that the anchors and production staff had about broadcasting on that day, how the NFL and SEC handled the decision to play or not to play, and how their broadcast is memorialized at the 9/11 exhibit in New York.
