Anyone see ESPN's ridiculous "Greatest Highlight" results?
I think you are exactly right...I mean are you kidding me with actually thinking that a trick play called the Statue of Liberty could be the greatest highlight of all time. Don't get me wrong, it was a very nice, risky play for Boise State. But come on. Does it beat MJ's shot over Ehlo, MJ's switch hands in the air layup, MJ's "final" shot against Utah in the NBA Finals, MJ's free throw line dunk, Dr. J's cup windmill dunk, Willie Mays over the shoulder catch, Babe Ruth calling his shot, The Immaculate Reception, The Catch, Kirk Gibson's fist pumping home run, Hank Aaron's HR breaking Ruth's record when he's rounding the bases and fans run out on the field, Tiger's chip on number 16 at Augusta when the Nike ball hung on the lip then fell in, Jack Nicklaus' "Yes Sir" putt at the '86 Masters, Doug Flutie's last second hail mary, John Elway's helicopter flip in the Super Bowl, The Play between California and Stanford when the band ran on the field, heck even David Tyree's Super Bowl catch this year beats that trick play. I mean seriously ESPN, I know people voted on it, but take some control over it. It would have been really sad if ESPN put it's name to that play as being the greatest highlight of all time.
