Favorite Play in Sports

A 3-2 break in hockey with a drop pass.

A short-handed, breakaway goal


A Clyde Drexler, split two defenders and lays it in...

He has a similar play at the 3:14 mark.
And he has NO rythym.

 

George Gervin, finger roll.

Dr J with the ball along the baseline.

 

My all-time favorite Dr. J moment ever. No Jordan shot compares. Hell, no shot compares to that one.

 

Super Mario undressing everyone.

My favorite play.

 

Football: third or fourth down and short yardage play. Run play gets blocked perfectly against a stacked line, running back breaks past second level and no one is there as he's off for a score. Something just always looked so great about all the tension at the line and then the RB busting a long run.

Baseball: total nostalgia for me here...the opposite field bouncing double down the line on artificial turf. Not sure why, but just have memories of plays like that happening often when I first fell in love with the sport.

Basketball: The North Carolina secondary break run all the way through.

 

As a Blackhawks fan, this one will always hold a place in my heart. The Colorado announcer's reaction really sells it:

Always loved the one-handed catch. My all-time favorite -- John Jefferson with the Chargers circa 1979. Notice the lack of stickum/gloves. Everyone can do it these days with those tacky gloves.

 

The Davy Concepcion turf bounce. A thing a beauty. And I hated the Reds.

 

3 team NFL Sunday Parlay, with a 1:00, 4:00 & 8:30 game.

 

Hole-in-one.
Straight steal of home.

 

Always pretty cool when one of the up men receiving an onside kick grabs the ball and returns it for a touchdown.
