Introducing: REAL DEAL with Tony Reali

Welcome to Episode 001 of REAL DEAL! I’m Tony Reali, and I’m so happy you’re here. Every episode starts with one unforgettable sports moment, and together we relive the feeling to figure out why it still matters. For this first episode, Olympic champion and legendary broadcaster Rowdy Gaines joins me to revisit his unforgettable call of the 2008 Olympic 4x100 freestyle relay, where Jason Lezak chased down Alain Bernard and in the process kept Michael Phelps’ dream of eight gold medals in one Olympic Games alive. The moment still cracks me open. But it also raises a bigger question: Was this the greatest teammate moment in sports history? Let me know what you think in the comments.
