Lasting Sports Memories of 2004
 

Hello All:

Since it is now January 1, 2005 and since 2004 was the greatest sports year I ever had, I was curious to see what all of you consider to be the most memorable and most forgetable moments in your sports world. I'll start:


Most memorable: The Red Sox finally beating the Yankees and then disposing of the Cards. D'uh.

Most forgetable: The US Men's Basketball "Team" earning the bronze in Athens. Didn't we event this fucking sport? :mad:

probably not. i think i remember it being aztecs or something.

alright lets see...

most memorable: the pistons/pacers fight. memorable doesnt have to be good, and thats something ill never forget. also, ron zook's speech after he was fired. im a gator fan, and i felt sooo bad for him.

most forgettable: tie between the gators' season and the dolphin's season

Ditto for the Sox as the most memorable moment.

Forgettable; R.I.P. Montreal Expos.

Most Memorable: Pistons/Pacers fight.

Most Forgettable: Yankees dropping 4 in a row to the Sox :(

Most memorable - red sox winning the world series. Who'd have guessed it? (i'm a die hard dodger fan)

Least memorable - the kobe/shaq/phil squabble, kobe's criminal trial and kobe accusing Karl Malone of making a pass at Kobe's wife (who really is a serious piece of ass after all). Kobe is not a normal human being grounded in everyday reality. Anybody who has millions and millions of dollars before the age of 20, who lives in luxury every day has suffered serious disconect with the world surrounding him.

:eng101: Actually a Canadian man invented the modern game of basketball.

Maybe if the overpaid "superstars" got off their collective size 60 butts (Mr O'Neal I'm looking in your direction), and maybe if the sports media actually backed the guys instead of ripping them at every opportunity, perhaps they would have done better.

Least memorable: tossup between the media hysteria around Boobgate and Basketbrawlgate.

Most memorable: Andreychuck finally getting on the Cup, Arsenal winning the EPL at White Hart Lane, Arsenal setting the record for the longest unbeaten run in league football.

Least memorable: The brawl at the palace.

Most memorable: The pistons slaughtering the lakers in the finals.

Most Memorable:

Favre's performance monday night Vs the Raiders
Beating the Seahawks in the playoffs, in overtime
Winning the World Championship and the World Cup in Hockey

Least Memorable:

4th and 26
Losing to the Flames in 7, then having to write an exam the next day
Bertuzzi incident
Lockout
BC Lions losing the Grey Cup

^I had more bad memories than good... 2004 sucked for me sports-wise

Same here, not a great year. The Yankees choking, watching the Sox win our trophy, no hockey, the Bills snapping out of their funk, going on that great second-half run just to piss it all away on the last day of the season and miss the playoffs AGAIN (although technically that was this year already) just not that great. Next year will be better.

DAMMIT I'M A YANKEES FAN, I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT SHIT!
