BillyVance 34 #28 August 12, 2008 Quote When Terrell Owens went to the Cowboys. I can't stand that arrogant bastard. E-A-G-L-E-S! Eagles! I loved it when Terrell Owens got creamed from behind by former University of Alabama and Dallas Cowboy DB George Teague for dancing on the Dallas Star after scoring a touchdown. THAT was classic!

BillyVance 34 #30 August 12, 2008 Quote January 30, 2000 Superbowl XXXIV When the St. Louis Rams beat the Tennessee Titans. Oh yeah, I still remember that one. Titans got stopped on the one yard line with no time left with the game on the line.

FreeflyChile 0 #31 August 12, 2008 Though I thoroughly enjoyed (like many Chicagoans) the Bulls of the 90s, I don't think that I ever liked following the NBA as much as I enjoy watching college basketball now. Therefore, my favorite moment has to be the Elite 8 game between my beloved Illini and Arizona from 2005, played at the Allstate Arena. That comeback was unbelievable and still gives me chills to think about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluepill 0 #32 August 12, 2008 A more recent favourite would be England beating Australia in their own back yard at the 2003 Rugby world cup final. It was a close match and went into extra time. Johnny Wilkinson drop kicked a goal in the dieing seconds of extra time to win. Apart from the joy of winning, in those days I was built and looked similar to one of the England players. And Rugby player types were the latest fashion accessory for girls in the U. I had alot of fun. BP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickDG 23 #41 August 12, 2008 In the midst of all these board and ball sports I'm going to out myself. I'm a sucker for figure skating. My favorite moment was during the 2002 Olympics Games. The favorites for Gold were American Michelle Kwan and Russian Irina Slutskaya. But a 16 year old girl from Long Island, NY, Sarah Hughes, gave the performance of a lifetime and blew them, and everyone who saw it, away . . .

I still remember that play. Sid wasn't the fastest on the team, in fact he was one of, if not THE slowest. And thus started the "SID.... SID....

That one is near the top of my list. The Tin Cup nature of it made it even better. Also Rulon Gardner beating Alexander Karelin in the 2000 Olympics. Karelin had won the gold in three consecutive Olympics (88, 92, and 96), 9 consecutive world titles, hadn't lost a match of any sort since the '87 Soviet championship, hadn't ever lost an international match, and hadn't had a single point scored on him in 10 years. Gardner was a farmer who'd lost to Karelin 5-0 in the '97 world championship...nobody besides himself gave him a chance. With six seconds left in the match and Gardner hanging on to his 1-0 lead, Karelin dropped his hands, stared at his opponent, and conceded the defeat. And yes, the commentator used the same line, "Do you believe in miracles?!" Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Quarterback Sneak...Bart Starr.....Ice Bowl.....Lambeau Field.....Green Bay, WI...1967 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QI6TkS-WN0I The whole game was an excercise in cold weather survival.. especially from the end zone camera platform with the north wind in my face for the whole game.

Shotgun 1 #48 August 12, 2008 I don't really follow any sports, so I guess I don't have a favorite sporting moment. But I am currently reading John Bertrand's Born to Win, where he talks about his team's 1983 winning of the America's Cup. Which sounds like it was a pretty cool moment, since that was the first time in about 130 years that anyone beat the American team. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You got to wonder how the fuck he did that. Pretty cool, but not that impressive compared to Dock Ellis (recently discussed in some other thread). He took some acid around noon, took the mound at 6 PM, and proceeded to pitch a no-hitter. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"
