This series is mainly focused on sports lovers and it will be about the cultural and spiritual impact of sports in different regions of the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cReligion of Sports\u201d will be available to both AT&amp;T U-Verse and DirecTV packages and it is scheduled to premiere on November 15, 2016 at 08:00 p.m. This sports documentary series is co-created by Tom Brady, Gotham Chopra, and Michael Strahan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The executive producers of \u201cReligion of Sports\u201d are Bart Peters, Christopher Long, Constance Schwartz-Morini, Chris Uettwiller, and Martin Desmond Roe. The first season will feature six original one hour-long episodes, and will focus on unique examples, where sports events influenced cultures and societies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Brady said, \u201cI&#8217;ll never forget watching The Catch in Candlestick Park with my dad. I was four years old, in awe of it all. In a lot of ways, I\u2019ve dedicated my life to replicating that feeling. Now, playing on the same stage as my childhood idols, I\u2019m fortunate to have a pretty unique perspective on football and the sports world. I can think of no better vehicle than \u2018Religion of Sports\u2019 to share some of what I&#8217;ve learned and dig a little deeper into that feeling, the sort of spiritual experience that sports creates for players and fans alike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Strahan said, \u201cGrowing up in Germany, I never imagined myself to be a professional athlete. At that point, I was a professional fan. Watching the reaction of the country when Germany won the World Cup back in 1990 showed another level of fandom that I had never seen. Sports can be that void that brings everyone together regardless of any barriers \u2013 socio-economic standing, race and religion. To be a part of this project, \u2018Religion of Sports,\u2019 brings full circle the things that I have learned as a child without even knowing that in some ways, I was having a religious experience. \u2018Religion of Sports\u2019 will be the bridge that connects the passion of religion with the passion of sports.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1207\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1207\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1207\" class=\"wp-image-1207 size-medium\" title=\"AT&amp;T Packages\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dish-Network21-e1473395218368-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Dish Network\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dish-Network21-e1473395218368-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dish-Network21-e1473395218368.jpg 599w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1207\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Audience Network Documentary Series<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chopra added, \u201cReligion of Sports is the nexus of everything I love \u2013 sports, spirituality, and media.
