OT: Greatest sports calls ever

[Shrmdougluvr]

About 1:15 on...

Vin Scully's silence for 1:08 is part of what makes this so perfect.

The A's are my favorite American League team. I have never been so stunned as I was at that moment. Left me speechless which is hard to do!

Tremendous on so many levels. :rolling:

That is one of the greatest rants I have ever heard. EVER!

I tried cut this short as it's over 4 minutes long. Good part starts around 3 minute mark. If you jump to it, keep in mind the black team was down 24 points with 3 minutes to go. They had kicked and recovered 3 onside kicks in a row. The best line is at the very end. This, of course, is in Texas.

Logan - 50 seconds in. The whole thing is worth watching though.

Thanks Toga!

A lot of people aren't aware that this was Elway's last college game. He ran the drive for the "winning" touchdown.

Flutie Flakes dit it!!

Fun thread.

"...now there's a steal by Bird..." Who's voice was better voice than Johnny Most's.

 

[Noexcuse]

The comeback is complete

It pisses me off that Jack Buck got more run from this. Vin Scully's was so much better.

I think one of the great travesties of SU sports history is that Doug Logan didn't get to make the call when we won the national title in 2003. I think his raw excitement would have caused the Super Dome to explode. No offense to Mark Johnson who did a solid job, but he wasn't a Syracuse guy.

Mark Johnson blows

Blame Doug Logan for that. It falls squarely on his shoulders.

Please explain.

Better Scully, for some of us:
