Those leagues should open up their library of past games on their websites for free. Keep the base happy.

“The Giants win the pennant”. Bill Buckner. Immaculate Reception. Ice Bowl. Helmet catch. Mr. October.

I’d bet there are millions (esp. young uns) who’ve never seen those games.

Great way to watch them - archive footage so you can dvr through the commercials.

If the media really cared, they’d offer it all up for free :)

"Game 6: Mets v. Red Sox 1986"

Seriously - how about 1968 NCAA basketball between UCLA and Houston? Alcindor - Hayes, man what a match up!

If that is all they aired. ESPN is garbage, a bunch a liberal jackwagons, that half the time don’t know squat about sports.

I’m a hockey fan. I would put two games at the top of my list:

1. The “Miracle on Ice” game from the 1980 Winter Olympics — the most iconic moment in the history of U.S. sports

2. Game 2 of the 1987 Canada Cup finals between Canada and the USSR — arguably the greatest hockey game ever played. Interestingly, Games 1 and 3 of that best-of-three finals would also probably make the list of Top Ten Hockey Games of All Time.

The ‘flu’ game (5th game of the 1997 NBA finals, Bulls vs. Jazz), in which Michael Jordan played with the flu, scored 38 points and the game winner, then collapsed into Scottie Pippen’s arms. Seems appropriate considering what we're going through.

Now is the time for all of them to get the hell back to work and treat any player who is sick like a player who is sick.

Giants vs. Bills Super Bowl. Whitney Houston National Anthem. 11 minute drive to open the second half. Giant defense (Bill Bellichek) using a 2 man rush against Jim Kelly. Last minute drive by the Bills with Thurman Thomas running all over the Giants. Wide right.

The last second of the 2013 Iron Bowl will keep me satisfied.

Now is the time for ESPN and other content providers (MSG, NESN, Spectrum, SEC network, etc.) waive/suspend fees to cable providers for content that won’t be shown and these same cable providers pass on those waived/reduced fees to their customers. I’m sure any network or cable company executive will have a good laugh or heart attack at the thought of this.

I was thinking ESPN might have to go back to its early days of shows....World’s Strongest Man, curling, stuff like that.

NFL Network should do a six hour special showing all the pivotal plays of Tom Brady over 20 years.

1980 Holiday Bowl. One of the best comeback victories ever.

Can we allow betting on those games? Just to spice up the interest...

Maybe this will usher in a new fad activity. It was the NHL strike a while back that kicked off the poker boom. ESPN decided to fill the NHL games they were supposed to cover with the WSOP coverage they had in the can.
