We all have those moments. The
ones when we're watching a triple overtime unfold, or we're hitting
the last-second jumper ourselves - the ones that stay with us the
rest of our lives. They remind us of why we're passionate
about sports - why everything from the Tallahassee Little League
Championships to the Super Bowl can get us excited. Some
of us here at Outsports, and some of our readers, have put together
our lists of our Top Moments In Sports. We hope some of these
lists remind you of "where you were when..." and that they
inspire you to create your own list. Whether you have 3, 5,
10, or any number of favorite sports moments, e-mail
them to us and we'll post them here.
Mike, New York City
1. N.Y. Rangers winning Stanley
Cup, 1994
When you see grown tough blue collar guys from NYC crying you know
something special has happened.
2. Kirk Gibson's home run to win
Game 1 of the 1988 World Series
I hate the Dodgers with a passion but a man pinch hitting, in
pain, hobbling, hitting what I think was the most inspiring home run
in world series history almost drove me to tears.
3. College intramural softball
team made up of freshman jocks and stoners upsets all
traditional teams to win college softball championships.
4. Knicks Beating Pacers in 2000
playoffs
Oh, wait, that is GOING to happen.
5. Michael Jordan doing
anything with a basketball
6. NY Mets winning 1986 World
Series Game 6 against Red Sox
C'mon, I detest the Mets but if there ever was a team of Destiny
that was it.
7. Jim Abbott throwing a now
hitter with The Yankees
The dude has only one arm!!!
8. Flea
To all of you non-surfers he's a professional surfer; winning the
GIANT Mavericks competition in 1998 and dedicating the win to a
friend with cancer
