What: “Beyond the Glory”

Where: Fox Sports Net, Sunday, 8 p.m.

The third segment of this outstanding new documentary series on Fox Sports Net focuses on the quarterback who has thrown and completed more passes than anyone else. But that is not why the producers chose to profile Warren Moon. He was chosen because he has a story to tell.

It begins with Moon first playing football on the streets of Los Angeles and continues through his days at Hamilton High and the University of Washington, his five-year stint with the Edmonton Eskimos and his 17 years in the NFL.

After the death of his father, Moon became the man of the house, which included six sisters when he was 7. In those early years there was Pop Warner football, and his coach, a young policeman named Bernard Parks, now Los Angeles police chief, is among those interviewed.

Moon recalls Parks yelling at him, “Moon, you stink.” Moon says, “I went over and sat on the bench and wanted to cry. But I wasn’t going to let him get to me. I have always remembered that day, from then on thinking I am going to prove to this man I am a much better player than what he thinks.”

Moon has been proving himself all his life, proving a black quarterback can make it, and later proving he is not a wife batterer.

On July 17, 1995, he was arrested and charged with battery against his wife, Felicia, after his 7-year-old son, Jeffrey, prompted by a concerned housekeeper, made a 911 call. Moon was found not guilty. The jury needed only 27 minutes to deliberate after Felicia testified she had been the aggressor.

Felicia talks about the unhappiness she felt at the time of the attack:

“If there would have been firearms in our house, I would have [committed suicide] and I think I would have took him with me.”

Moon, who had women throwing themselves at him, says, “It got to the point of where it was too much. It was too much for her to handle and she needed more. I felt I provided this great lifestyle for her. I provided everything in the world that you could want, you know, you shop whenever you want, you have all these diamonds, you have housekeepers and all these other things. But I wasn’t hearing what she was really saying, that she really wanted me.”
