NYY-BOS Game 7 last year

certainly you mean 2003, the year the yankees won. in 2004, the game was over before it started. sure, it was 'memorable', or in my case 'forgettable', because they were the first team to come back from 3 down in MLB, but it wasn't much of a game.

[/ QUOTE ]

Certainly you mean Game 7 2001 WS Diamondbacks v. Yankees.

Clemens v. Schilling. Mentor v. Mentee. Soriano hits solo shot off of Schilling to take 2-1 lead late in game. D-Backs come back off of Rivera with good guys Grace and Gonzalez playing huge parts.

Best baseball game I've seen. I know you are Yankees fan but you have to admit it was a great game, win or lose.

wow you REALLLLLLLLLLLY need to work on your reading skills. Read my original post.

And I was thinking about including UM-UT Rose Bowl, but I wasn't sure if I was too biased into choosing that one. Good to know others liked that game.

1997 WS Game 7 Marlins defeat Indians 3-2 in 11 innings, and it's not even close.

this is harder than i thought, but here was my original list:

st louis vs pats superbowls
pats vs panthers superbowl
arizona vs illinois
pistons/nets crazy overtime game
red sox vs yankees games 4-7 really (2004)

i dont really like college football, but i have to say a few of those should be up there.

And you need to work on your math skills. 2005-1997 is eight years ago (9 if you count this past year), and its not even close to 5.

2002 Fiesta Bowl - tOSU vs theU
2003 ALCS Game 7 - BOS @ NYY
*insert a Pats game w/ Viniteri GW FG here*

nothing else really that memorable to me, but then again, I don't really watch the NFL or NBA or CBB.

you picked 8 games. the only game of that red sox yankees set IIRC was game 5. You know, the one where the Tony Clark hit a ball into RF at Fenway, that would have scored the runner from first for the go ahead, instead, it was a ground rule double because of that illegal 2 foot fence.

1. Notre Dame/USC this season. One of the greatest college football games of all time.
2. Potentially a bunch of the NCAA tournament games last year. UK/Mich St, Wake-West VA, Arizona-Ill. were amazing games. I can't pick one.
3. Patriots/Raiders AFC Championship game 2002
4. Titans-Rams Super Bowl, 2000. Tackled on the 1 yard line as time expires, stretching for the end zone? Priceless.

Having trouble thinking of the 5th, esp. since I don't give a [censored] about baseball

The Titans-Rams SB wasn't that exciting. The first three quarters were actually quite boring IMO. It was just the last 10 minutes that made it "memorable", but not necessarily great.

I did not recall you posting NYY/ARI.

Sorry.

I'm also sorry I wasted my time writing out an entire paragraph about the game and why it was memorable. Jeesh.
