WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SPORTING MOMeNT?
EVERYONE KNOWS WHERE THEY WERE AND WHAT THEY WERE DOING WHEN JFK WAS ASSASINATED.
SO WHAT SPORTING MOMENT THAT YOU WATCHED LIVE OR ON TV HAD THE SAME EFFECT ON YOU?
MY TWO FAVORITE ARE:
1. GAME 1 OF 1988 WS. KIRK GIBSON HOBBLING TO THE PLATE AND SLUGS A 2 RUN HR TO BEAT THE A’S. I WAS WATCHING ON TV AND JUST STOOD THERE WITH MY MOUTH OPEN IN SHOCK.
AND STILL REMEMBER THE CALL BY VIN SCULLY BY HEART… “…. AND SHEEEEE ISSSSSSSS GOONNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!… IN THE YEAR THAT HAS BEEN SO IMPROBABLE, THE IMPOSSIBLE HAS HAPPENED!!!!”
HONORABLE MENTION:
BUSTER DOUGLAS KNOCKING OUT TYSON.

1. Vince Young races for the corner for a touchdown with 19 seconds left in the Rose Bowl to defeat USC.
-My heart was racing until i saw vince score that touchdown and me screaming, “I love you!”
2. Rookie Chris Burke hits the walk-off home run in the NLDS against Atlanta to end the longest game in postseason history.
-I remember watching every hour of that game. I had eaten like 40 hot wings and my face and shirt were full of hot sauce and i was rooting for the ‘stros but i really didn’t care anymore. I just wanted the game to end.When burke hit the HR, I remember tossing all the wing bones and started jumping up and down and screaming.

Watching the Red Sox win the 2004 World Series. When it was 2 outs in the 9th, my wife and I woke up our daughter so she could see them win it… because god knows when it’ll happen again!
