-- Douglas knocking out Tyson
-- Tiger winning the 2008 US Open with spaghetti knee
-- Leyritz's game tying HR in game 4 of the '96 WS

-- Abby Wambach's header to tie Brazil in the 2011 WWC

Saints game. I actually cried when I heard Parcells describe that game. Tynes was big... Leyritz was clutch.



I believe that Saints game was on a Sunday night on ESPN. I want to say the it was Theisman and Mike Patrick in the booth...? Maybe one other...?

Beyond the sacks, I think Taylor had close to 15 tackles and probably another 7+ pressures. Maybe two forced fumbles...Just an absolute beauty of a game. The sideline shots of LT on the sideline getting the shoulder wrapped was the thing of greek gods...


Game was Nov 27th, 1988.
1. SB 42

Thank you

You all reminded me of some wonderful things that I had not forgotten but had faded. Just reading about them brought those moments to life again. I could hear the calls and see the moments. . Do you feel the community of this? Some of the petty bickering we have is silly. We have so much more in common than we have in differences. I see you.
mine..

that for me is near the top of a very average but fun amateur sports career and is Al Bundy-esque.

Hamden High vs Notre Dame, CT state high school hockey division 1 championship game in March of 1989. 1 - 0 Hamden victory.

Yours truly didn't factor in the scoring, but I was instrumental in a 5 on 3 PK late in the 3rd and helped a stifling Green Dragons defense hold the Green Knights to 9 total shots on net to seal the W and let the celebration ensue.

played a little in college, and in men's league for almost 30 years, but my peak was high school, lol.
A few noted some golf memories but the best one

was actually the 1986 Masters and Jack Nicklaus coming from way behind to win his last major.
Nice list gratefulhead, especially like

the nod to Chris Chambliss...

But I would have to include Tuck forcing Brady into an intentional grounding throw in SB 46 to open the scoring 2-0 for the Gmen.

How many football games start with the score of a safety?

And vs Tom Brady? Epic moment.
