My most memorable 2007 Sports Moments:

The death of Blackhawks owner Bill Wirtz, finally unchaining the organization from his reign and looking like they actually have a future to build upon with Pat Kane and Jonathan Toews. Not to mention finally going to be put back on television regularly again.

Mark Buerhrle's no hitter.

Jim Thome's walk off 500th career home run.

Notre Dame actually but Michigan has been a team I've enjoyed watching for a few years now.

 

[Fran]

Every team has their down years.

 

[Genesis 1.0]

Heh, you're telling me, but through the years I've seen sparks of brilliance within the orginization. They'll be back on top once they owrk out the kinks on both sides of the ball and not until.
