This is old. I think I saw it last year, but still pretty cool. No way around the slideshow, so spare me.

Some I don't agree with, and some are missing. But who am I?

Haven’t viewed it, but there ought to be at least one Earl Campbell pic in there. The man was greatness.

[Mase]

Didn't see the shot of Pudge Fisk waving the ball over the wall in game six of the '75 World Series, or the last second shot by Christian Laettner in the '92 finals.

[dfwgator]

Touche.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

One of the great moments in baseball.

[SeaHawkFan]

Didn’t Alabama get hosed by the refs in a couple of games against Penn State many, many years ago.

[yarddog]

They sure did and they were so obvious that they had to have been purposeful cheating on the ref’s part.

[SeaHawkFan]

To me, the greatest play in the history of Major League Baseball was when Lou Brock lined a hit into the left field corner at Fenway Park in the world series and Carl Yaztremski threw him out at second base.

All you could see was the ball going into the corner (out of view of the camera), and then a cannon shot to second base for the tag.

[SeaHawkFan]

There was even a Sports Illustrated article about those two games and how the officiating was corrupt; or at least it was implied.

[Rodamala]

Totally agree... that thread out of nowhere last week regarding Secretariat’s win at Belmont has put that photo in my mind ever since.

[dfwgator]

Here's one of the greatest plays in baseball history.

[luvie]

Yes. That one!

[Rodamala]

It is an iconic photograph...

[luvie]

Amen to that! A true hero in any book!

[Jet Jaguar]

[nickcarraway]

If he did that today, Roger Goodell would ban him from the league.

[Moonman62]

46 seemed old then, but not so much anymore. This April that will be 28 years ago.

And golf is a sport. The ones who say it isn't can't play.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

You had me going for a minute. Actually, is behind the plate in the Maseroski home run photo, that puts him in three of the greatest shots of all time. As Yogi [may have] said, “I never said most of the things I said.”
