Obviously there are so many answers for this but what moment stands out to you?

When I ask this, look past the idea that your favorite team (lets say the Ravens) won a SB or the Orioles 2012 and 2014 seasons. I mean as more of a national story.

For me, off the top of my head, the Cubs winning the WS and Tiger winning the masters are 2 big ones that stand out to me.

Two that I liked and two that I hated:

Ray Allen's 3 in game 6 against the Spurs.

The Cavs comeback from down 3-1 to the Warriors with the block by LeBron standing out.

The Pats winning the Superbowl on the Malcolm Butler pick as well their comeback win over the Falcons.

Cavs comeback is a good one.

From a local standpoint, since I don't really care about the national stuff...but if I had to pick one, The Philly Special.

 

Mile High Miracle

UMBC upsets UVA

Delmon Young Game 2 ALDS

Also, Adam Jones robbing Machado of a HR in the WBC was an awesome moment.

4th and 29

 

Best part of that play was that Rice clearly only got 28.5 yards, but it was such an incredible individual effort that the refs had to give him the first down.

If I recall, some people on here may not have liked that I pointed that out. 😁

Villanova's buzzer beating National Title over Carolina was awful for me personally, but a moment that will resonate for a long time. 

Cubs winning the World Series

Two Triple Crown winners in three years after a 40 year Triple Crown Slump.

A lot of good ones. My top three would be Cubs WS because of the long slump, and the game had a rain delay in the 9th inning!! It’s like, here Cubs fans, wait even longer.

UMBC over UVA. Not only has a 16 never won, they won by 20, against a dominant defense they didn’t miss a shot. It’d be like if the 2000 Ravens defense lost 63-0 to an 0-15 team. I mean UMBC is close to Miracle on Ice type stuff.

Tiger winning the Masters, even though everyone on the top of the leaderboard peed their pants on 13 paving the way for him. I imagine it’s what the previous generation got to experience with Jack in the 86’ Masters. I don’t recall the leaderboard in 86, but the top of the leaderboard around Tiger is gonna be a who’s who. DJ, Koepka, Day, Fowler, Molinari, Rahm. I know, because I bet on all of them except Tiger to win.

I’ll say in order, UMBC, Cubs, Tiger.

[The Epic]

The Cubs winning it all has to be the biggest. Like...there's going to be a lot of contenders but I feel like that's #1 easy. 

 

The Red Sox collapse is way up there. It was so long ago that a lot of people just don't realize how insane that really was. 

 

The 28-3 comeback.

 

Tiger.

 

DeAndre Jordan's dunk. (shut up, it mattered)

 

Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead.

 

Simone Biles, in general.
