Default Most Memorable Moments in Sports

This is a thread to post videos and reminisce and discuss memorable and/or great moments in sports. Boozinbloozin gave me this idea by posting this following video in another thread:

The magic starts around 3:30


Man, what an unbelievable finish. Pacers-Knicks were an awesome 90's rivalry with the whole Reggie Miller-Spike Lee thing and some great games. This was game 1 of the 1995 Semi-Finals. The first Reggie 3-pointer was a great shot, but it is unheard of and incredibly ballsy to do what he did next. Steal the inbound pass, then run BACKWARDS to the 3-point line and drill a 3. 99.99999& of the time a guy is just gonna go for the 2 pointer. I can't believe he had the guts and confidence to go for the 3. Then again, that's why he is the best 3 point shooter ever (maybe Ray Allen). Terrible in-bounds pass by Anthony Mason, he was falling in bounds as he passed it lol. No idea what he was doing. Then after Reggie tied the game and they fouled for some reason, you could just sense the energy get sucked out of Madison Square Garden as John Starks went to the foul line. He wanted no part of those foul shots and missed both and Reggie Miller sealed it by easily sinking 2 of his own foul shots. One of the most incredible endings ever to a game.

I don't know if this was the greatest fake punt in the history of the NFL but it has to be pretty high up there.

I'll try to post what I think are the most iconic moments in all 4 major NA sports. All of them pretty much go without saying.

I don't remember seeing that fake punt dj, but that's awesome. Lol I spend a lot of free time looking up fake punts and kicks and tricky plays on youtube. They are awesome. Always fun to see a punter get in the endzone, they get no recognition.

Wow Thom Yorke, great choices. Not sure I can think of any more iconic videos in their respective sports than the ones you posted.

Though it happened before I was born, the Buckner play is awesome for me as a Mets fan. Can't help but feel bad for Bill Buckner though, he had a solid career but he will only be remembered for that one crucial mistake. I think it would have been a closer play at first base than most people realize though. He was playing pretty deep in the infield and was behind the bag and Mookie Wilson was fast and was booking it down the line.

Man, that Jordan shot. First off let me say that Michael Jordan is the definition of a champion. He is a hero and there will never be another MJ. I can't even express how awesome he is. I do wish that was his actual final NBA shot as far as legacy goes, but I don't think anybody holds his Wizards stint against him. I'll never hate on an athlete for continuing to play the game they love (unless they are drama whores like Favre). Probably a lot of people forget that he was the one who made the great defensive play to strip Malone at the other end. Just coming down the court, was there any doubt who was taking that last shot? And was there any doubt he was going to drill it? Just such a signature shot to put an exclamation point on his 6th title and the best career ever.

Here's some of my favourites though:


The World Juniors are HUGE in Canada and Jordan Eberle solidified himself quite possibly as the best WJC Canadian in history with his play in that tournament, and would only add to it in the tournament the year after.


This was absolute insanity. Heat check!


Best Superbowl in recent memory.

Also the blown perfect game for Galarraga, but there was no good video of it on youtube.

The king of media drama himself making one of the defining clutch catches of his career. The 1998 NFC playoffs against the Packers. With less than two minutes left to go and the 49'ers down by 4. On a 3rd and a 3 yards to go Young throws a strike to the future hall of famer. You can skip to around 7:50 but to get the actual feel you should watch the begining of the drive. Owens has since went on (despite always getting critisized by the media for his controversial behavior) to land hiself 1rst or 2nd to only the great Jerry Rice. In every receiving record imaginable. With Randy Moss being tied with him in a couple categorys. At any rate ive always been a fan of his and this is one of the plays that definatley go's down in the books as miraculous. Its often refferred to as The Catch 2. If your familiar with football the first catch was the Dwight Clark catch in the end zone that defeated my Dallas Cowboys. Anyway hope you enjoy the footage.

there was a famous one from Buffalo Bills when they were in the Super Bowl but I can't remember all of the details of it to save my life.

lol yeah that too but I was referring to a hail mary pass that Jim Kelly pulled off in the superbowl though.

T.O. has always caught so much shit, some of it brought on by himself, some of it undeserved. I've always been an Owens fan and he is definitely better than Moss in my opinion. Randy was an absolute freak but all he did was run deep. He made amazing catches but Owens does so much more. He's one of the toughest WRs to ever play the game. I don't even care he has dropped a lot of balls cause most receivers don't have the nuts to go over the middle for 15 years like he has. T.O. is awesome and that catch ruled. He knew he was going to take a huge hit but put his body on the line for his team. I don't know if anyone realizes, but he was having a horrible game before that catch with a lot of drops. But if you are running a post route with safeties lurking over the top, you are fearless.



Who hasn't seen this 100 times? FLUTIE! Flutie was great, how can you hate the guy. He is the classic underdog story.


I feel for those Bills teams. 4 straight superbowl appearances, 4 straight losses.
