EPISODE SUMMARY
In 1979, LA Laker Magic Johnson debuted and then celebrated Kareem's game winner like they'd won a championship.
Also in 1979, Boston's Larry Bird made his debut but it was Chris Ford stole the headlines after making the first three-pointer in NBA history.
In 1989, the Dallas Cowboys traded running back Herschel Walker to the Minnesota Vikings for what turned out to be 8 draft picks. It changed the fortunes of both teams.
And in 2019, Eliud Kipchoge became the first human to run a sub two hour marathon distance.

STEVE WHITE BIO
The host of 'This DiSH' is me, Steve White. I've spent most of my life behind a microphone. As a kid, I realized the power of the spoken word, hanging out with my dad while we talked to people around the world via ham radio. Later, I put that penchant for communication into practice and ventured into radio and TV. I've worked for a few television stations in North Carolina doing sports reporting and anchoring before transitioning to voiceover in 2015.
'This Day in Sports History' evolved from a lifetime of watching, listening to, and going to ballgames, reading books, magazines, and newspaper articles about my favorite teams and sports heroes. It's not only a labor of love but a voyage of discovery, finding those forgotten tidbits or fascinating things I never knew.
