#1 wasn't Dante Hall's backwards juke for a TD in Denver? WTF

He meant in the sports blunders list. Number 1 in this one is either "The Catch", some home run in baseball that I don't give a good god damn about, or something else that I don't really remember....(Top three were mentioned on Around the Horn today, not in order though)
The Stanford-Cal band play isn't in the top three, which is entirely ludicrous.
Another fucking golf shot is playing now. My roomate plays golf. I think I'm going to take one of his clubs and smash my TV.
edit: Of course. It's the home run that I don't give a good god damn about that got the top spot. At least it wasn't golf.
Gibson's home run against Eckersly.
I call shenanigans on this list.
On the other hand, I never before realized that the Vikings have given up what are likely the two best QB runs in NFL history. One to Young, the other in OT against Vick...er...I mean...the Falcons. Yes, the Falcons...the entire team was a playoff team that year. They just were off their game last season. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Was Bill Mazeroski's 1960 World Series winning homer on the list at all? I never can understand why that is hardly ever considered the biggest home run ever. It was hit in the bottom of the ninth of game seven of the World Series to lead the Pirates over the Yankees. You can't get a much bigger play in baseball than that. It's the only game seven World Series wall-off homer in baseball history.,

Definately the greatest radio call I've EVER fucking heard. There is none other like it. I get goosebumps every time I hear it. Same goes for the radio call of the end of both Championship clinching games (Rockets in 94 and 95) gives me goosebumps like that.

That year had three great plays that I can recall. There was Dante Hall's reception-juke-spin-backhop thingy, Mike Vick's touchdown run in OT against the Vikings, and Woody Dantzler's return touchdown where he broke about twelve tackles and then hoped on one foot for five yards while trying not to fall out of bounds.
I couldn't pick which one of those three was the best back then, I still can't now.
As for the plays they didn't show, they haven't shown any NFL footage throughout "Who's #1?" I suppose they couldn't get the NFL Films rights/didn't want to pay for them.

also, they need to make a dvd with all these "sick" nfl/nba plays.
seriously, id buy it.
Oh and a great play I will always remember, probably not in the top 25, but its when Michael Vick was in college and I forgot but Tech was playing some damn team....And Vick ran a 82 yard touchdown on them.....it was so sick...a QB gettin a 82 yard touchdown run....ever since that play, I knew Vick was gonna be something great...and also the fact that he is from my hometown.
peace
