Welcome to SportsNation! On Tuesday, we'll have director Mike Tollin stopping by to talk about ESPN's 30 for 30 project, which commemorates ESPN's 30th anniversary and debuts Oct. 27 (8 p.m. ET, ESPN).
30 for 30 is an unprecedented documentary series featuring 30 films from some of today's finest storytellers, detailing the events that transformed the sports landscape from 1979 to 2009. Tollin's Small Potatoes: Who Killed the USFL? takes a look at the one-time rival of the NFL and what brought about its downfall.
Tollin has produced more than a dozen feature films and hundreds of hours of television. His films include "Wild Hogs," starring John Travolta, Tim Allen and Martin Lawrence; "Coach Carter," "Varsity Blues" and "Radio." In television, Tollin has won three Emmys. He is executive producer of "Smallville" and "One Tree Hill." He also produced "The Bronx is Burning," an eight-hour mini-series for ESPN about the 1977 Yankees.
Send your questions now and join Tollin Tuesday at 3 p.m. ET!
