I didn't see that when it happened and I would have been too young to really appreciate it, but through the retelling of various documentaries on the event I have been greatly moved by it.

1. 2003 Fiesta Bowl (Ohio State vs. Miami)
2. 2006 Rose Bowl (Texas vs. USC)
3. 9/27/03 USC @ Cal

It's got to be all the alcohol because I just cant remember that far back. On top of that, it doesnt help that John Elway ruin my childhood "with the drive".

'98 NBA Finals when the Bulls blew out Utah 96-54. That's the only Finals game I have seen in person.

Mike Jones making a tackle on Dyson at the .5-yard line. Beautiful.

Adam Vinatieri splitting the uprights in the final seconds of NE's 20-17 Super Bowl win over the Rams. It had been 16 years since NE had a pro champion, and the way the Pats blew that lead and looked like the game was going into OT was too much to take.

Corrales/Castillo I, even though I lost money on Chico's miracle left hook and comeback, the BEST boxing fight I've EVER seen.

I was on JLC in the first two fights and think he destroys Chico again, but not laying down any dinero on a -200 bet.

Lazy and Calzaghe should be a dandy on Showtime.

The 2006 Rose Bowl as the Horns with "no chance" beat the "greatest college team of all time".

Both teams scored on every possesion in the second half except Texas's 1st possesion and USC's last. What a game!

Although i was too young at the time the Ali/Frazier, Ali/Foreman and Ali/Holmes fights still seem like thrilling epics years after the events.
