Favorite Moments in Sports History

[Jerry!]

Just what the title says. List your favorite moments in sports history. Can be from baseball, soccer, hockey, football, whatever. Just not NASCAR. Because that would be going off topic.

One of my favorites was in 1992 with Ditka as coach as the Bears. Then QB Jim Harbaugh was on orders to not audible into anything during a specific play. He either ignored Ditka or just forgot and audibled into a screen pass which ended up in an INT being returned for a TD and the Bears eventually lost that game. When Harbaugh returned to the sidelines after he threw the INT, Ditka, red faced, ran up to him and grabbed him around the collar and screamed in his face:
"WHAT THE **** ARE YOU DOING OUT THERE!!?!!" You didn't need a mic to understand exactly what he was saying. Harbaugh threw two more INTs in that game. Not the best memory, but one of the funniest I have of Ditka and the Bears.

While not very significant, one of the most exciting NFL games I ever watched was a few years ago when Manning and Favre had a shootout. 3-4 drives in a row the two of them kept throwing deep bombs for touchdowns.

Vince Carter completely jumping over that 7 footer in the olympics was pretty crazy.

Michigan's torrid run to the championship after Frieder left for ASU. Best part? Rumeal Robinson's reverse dunk that should've been a layup, but Cazzie Russell willed it to become a dunk and so it became.

Desmond on fourth down in the corner against ND. I hate ND in ways I can't explain.

Anytime Paul O'Neill did anything in pinstripes.

The Packers winning the '96 Super Bowl.

1993 Badgers end 31 year Rose Bowl drought and Win.

Ironic. I enjoyed it because I know one die-hard Yankees fan.
