Fox Sports Net's documentary series Beyond The Glory on Sunday, April 13 at 8 p.m. local time delves into the turbulent career of New York Jets quarterback Vinny Testaverde. His storied football career has been a series of ups and downs, his failures often overshadowing his accomplishments. And while the native New Yorker has scaled some of football's greatest heights, his road to success hasn't been an easy one. Football was a family affair with the Testaverdes. From day one, Vinny's father Al dreamed that his only son would play the game. With a rifle for an arm and a fierce desire to win, Vinny proved himself worthy of a scholarship to Miami. He led the Hurricanes to the school's first undefeated season and fulfilled his father's dream by winning the Heisman Trophy. But on the brink of a perfect season, Testaverde failed to guide his team to a National Championship.

Following a closely watched career at Miami, Testaverde was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the worst team in

Mark Cuban, self-made billionaire and owner of the Dallas Mavericks, really has led a dream life. To be the owner of a professional team is a fantasy for anybody with a love of sports. But, for almost all, fantasy never meets reality. This week's installment of Fox Sports Net's documentary series Beyond the Glory tells the remarkable story of one of the most energetic and dynamic businessmen ever to enter the world of sports.

From his early entrepreneurial ventures of peddling candy and trash bags door-to-door, to the launch of Broadcast.com and the purchase of the Dallas Mavericks in 2000, Beyond the Glory chronicles the life of Cuban during this one-hour documentary.

Cuban discusses growing up in Mt. Lebanon, Penn., where his desire to make money began at an early age. He shares in detail the many businesses he started along the way, which all seemed to flourish from his ""golden touch.""

Cuban has never taken no for an answer and wasn't afraid to try something new. In fact, at one poi

Rusty Wallace

2x9

A grizzled veteran of NASCAR's major leagues, Rusty Wallace has earned more than $34 million dollars behind the wheel of a Winston Cup car. The competitive fire that stoked the early years of his nearly quarter-century career burns as brightly today as it did when his two-race rookie season (1980) produced a second-place finish and another top 10 showing.

Beyond The Glory examines the life of this racing legend. From his roots in suburban St. Louis, where he and brothers Kenny and Mike cut their racing teeth in a legendary sports town — for everything but racing, that is — to success on the Winston Cup and Busch Series tours. It was Rusty, however, the most celebrated of the band of brothers, who claimed the ‘89 Winston Cup points championship in the third-most closely contested finish in history — a 12-point win over NASCAR legend, the late Dale Earnhardt.

Perhaps the Wallace brothers had no choice but to take up racing in the midst of St. Louis' ""stick and ball sports"" mindset. Their

Terrell Davis

Life has always seemed to be a struggle for two-time Super Bowl champion running back Terrell Davis. From a rough and tough upbringing to a college career that was far from smooth and successful. So when he made it to the top as a running back with the Denver Broncos, there seemed to be nothing that could slow him down or force him to walk away.

Born in San Diego, Davis had the physique to play football even at a young age. However, his first setback came when he suffered a dislocated shoulder midway into his senior season at Lincoln High School, making him virtually invisible to college recruiters from major programs. He accepted a scholarship from Long Beach State in Southern California, but he did so as much to further his education as his football career. His career at Long Beach State was barely underway in 1990 when the school announced it was folding the program.

What was initially devastating news, turned out to be an opportunity of a lifetime. He transferred to the University

It has been nearly a dozen years since Pete Rose accepted a lifetime ban from baseball with the condition he could apply for reinstatement after a year. However, Rose is still on the outside looking in and talks candidly about the effects the ban has had on his life and his family.

For the first time ever, the Rose legal team opened up the files and revealed the defense that was never have and explains recent attempts between their attorneys and Major League Baseball to bring this sad chapter of baseball history to some sort of closure. Known now for his off the field exploits as much as anything he's done on the field, this episode provides insight to the man behind the headlines by talking to family, friends, colleagues and critics.

Evander Holyfield

Many know Evander Holyfield as the former heavyweight champion who lost a portion of his ear in a boxing ring when Mike Tyson bit him. But as this Sunday's episode of Beyond The Glory conveys, it was just one of many memorable nights in the life of one of the greatest pugilists to ever enter the squared circle.

While the documentary chronicles his significant moments inside the ring, the events that transpired outside are woven throughout and show what personal tragedies and exploits were affecting Holyfield.

Born in Atmore, Ala., a farming community near the Florida panhandle, Holyfield was the youngest of eight siblings. He was six when his mother Annie moved the family to Summerhill, a southeastern suburb of Atlanta, where she raised them all by herself. Evander never knew his father for his parents never wed.

He has a brother who was convicted of rape, another brother who was shot to death, lost his mother in a car accident in 1996 and is the father of nine children, five out of we

Alonzo Mourning

Though quite at home on a basketball court, the seemingly invincible Alonzo Mourning has faced hs share of challenges off the court. As this episode chromicles, Mourning's success has certainly come at a price. Despite the fame and fortune he's achieved, Mourning's journey has neither been easy nor without pain.

Born in Chesapeake, Virgina in 1970, Mourning quickly outgrew both his clothes and his classmates, often making him the object of ridicule. An unhappy child, Mourning saw his parents divorce when he was 11. As a result, his first court battle took place not on a basketball court, but in custody court. The judge gave Alonzo the option of living with either one of his parents, but Mourning shocked everyone by opting to be placed in the state's foster care system instead.

After bouncing around the system, mainly at various boys' homes to his dismay, Mourning eventually ended up at the home of Fannie Threet. Threet was known around Chesapeake as the Queen Mother. Mourning was just

Gary Sheffield grew up in the Belmont Heights projects in Tampa, Florida. It was a tough, neglected neighborhood where violence was common and opportunities were scarce.

Though it was apparent that Sheffield was capable of being a special kind of ballplayer, his infamous temper was becoming a threat to others as well as himself.

It was his grandfather Dan Gooden who instilled in Gary a love for the game of baseball, and it was his uncle Dwight Gooden who taught Sheffield how to play the game.

But each stop among the way for Sheffield produced mixed results for both he and his teams. In this episode, we chronicle his life including his temper, his penchant for women, the time he was shot, the death threat on his mother's life and his frustrations with the teams he played his 14-year career.

Currently a member of the Atlanta Braves after a trade in the offseason, Sheffield has donned jerseys of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Florida Marlins (where he won a World Series ring), San Diego Padres

Lawrence Taylor

National Football League Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was a free spirit who made his own rules and broke the rest. But, after years of living on the edge, Taylor fell over — brought down by cocaine and alcohol. His troubles were fodder for a hungry media, and as TV cameras rolled, the man known as L.T. hit rock bottom.

His reckless, aggressive style literally transformed not only the linebacker position, but also the way defense in general is played. But to many, Taylor's off-the-field notoriety overshadowed his gridiron accomplishments and brought disgrace to his legend and the game at which he excelled.

This Sunday's episode of Beyond the Glory traces the steps that Taylor took in his life and how his activities on and off the field affected those around him.

From his upbringing in Williamsburg, Virginia, his college career at the University of North Carolina, his 13-year NFL career that included an MVP season capped off with a Super Bowl victory, to his current life in retirement

Despite growing up in a household with a famous father [Ned] who made his name racing cars, Dale Jarrett certainly didn't have anything handed to him despite his father's connections in NASCAR.

There have been several bumps in his road to the top of Winston Cup racing and this Sunday's episode of Beyond the Glory takes to the track to uncover them.

As a child growing up in Hickory, N.C., Jarrett found success in everything he tried. Crediting the leadership role he saw in his dad, Jarrett excelled in all sports including baseball, football, golf and basketball. It was this take-charge attitude and the respect he commanded that served him well in most of his endeavors.

However, he was not free of trouble. During his senior year in high school, Jarrett learned his longtime girlfriend Kim was pregnant. They married and Kim gave birth three months premature. This was the first of many tough decisions Jarrett would have to make over the years.

He declined a scholarship to play golf at Unive

Some may wonder why someone as young as Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, 23, would have enough of a story at this juncture to dedicate to an hour documentary. But, that's precisely what makes this profile of Bryant compelling — his age, the problems it created with teammates and coaches as well as Byrant's willingness, despite being a high profile public figure, to guard his private life.

Bryant's childhood was far from that of the average kid. Growing up the son of a NBA player, Bryant spent the first six years of his life in Philadelphia. But, when his father, Joe ""Jelly Bean"" Bryant signed a deal to play in the Italian League, Kobe and the family moved to Italy.

This was the first time in his life that he had to adapt to a different environment, but it wouldn't be the last.

For the next seven years, Bryant immersed himself into the new culture and language and in his favorite activity — playing basketball. After getting comfortable though, the Bryants were on the move aga
