An ESPY Award (short for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Award) is an accolade currently presented by the American broadcast television network ABC, and previously ESPN (as of the 2017 ESPY Awards the latter still airs them in the form of replays), to recognize individual and team athletic achievement and other sports-related performance during the calendar year preceding a given annual ceremony. The first ESPYs were awarded in 1993.

From the show's inception to 2004, ESPY Award winners were cho ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
