| Best of 2006
We never really did a "year-end" thread, so what were some of the most memorable moments in the world of sports for you in 2006. Here are mine:
George Mason's run to the Final 4, especially the UConn game
Rutgers defeats Louisville in the biggest game in the school's history
Andre Agassi's final match and second to last match at the U.S. Open (I was at the US Open the day of his final match, but not watching his match. I watched it on a big screen, and I got a little choked up).
Ben Roethlisberger's tackle of Nick Harper saving the Steelers in the AFC Championship
Texas over USC in the Rose Bowl
The Ohio State-Michigan game
The Dodgers hitting 4 home runs back to back to back to back to win in the 9th inning
Endy Chavez's amazing catch in Game 7 of the NLCS
LeBron James and Gilbert Arenas realizing that all of their teammates suck, and just going at each other for an entire 7-game series
Adam Morrison breaking down into tears after (actually, just before the end of) his final collegiate game.
Billy Packer once again looking like a fucking douchebag, as his precious "big schools" got trounced repeatedly by mid-major teams in March Madness
The joke that was Miami University football this season, most notably the fight versus FIU.
Carmelo Anthony's "hit and run"
The collapses of the Giants, Falcons, and Panthers (although the Giants have more "memorable" moments during that collapse, including the Devin Hester return of Feely's missed FG, and the Kiwanuka would-be sack of Vince Young)
Tomlinson scoring 4 TDs every week
I'm sure I'll think of more as time passes |
