Dolphins's play over Ravens is #1 hands down.


no sorry, i already have my #1 pciked out, ide say it but i dont want to ruin it for people who want a surprise, so ill use spoilers


i picked the barry bonds 756 homerun, it has too much history behind it, that deserves #1 hands down IMO
 
Well, there's no question he used steriods and there's also no question that A-Rod will beat that record eventually. So, it deserves to be in the top ten, but there's no way it's number 1.
 
Like everyone viewing this thread didn't just click that spoiler. :rolleyes:


Personally, I don't agree with Bonds being made #1 (not because I think tennis deserves to be so highly above it, but because I don't like Bonds and the way he accomplished his goal), but it doesn't make that big of a difference to me.

*EDIT*

I agree with Nic7.

Federer winning his 5th consecutive Wimbledon isn't all. He's setting records for all the Grandslams. He's closing in on Sampras's record of career Grandslams, he having 14 and Federer having 12. Too add to that list would be something arguably even greater: After winning the 07' Australian Open, he became the 1st player to win three different Grand Slams 3 years in a row. The 1st.

I've been wanting Federer to win the French for soooo long. All four in one year is what he should be aiming for. Damn that Nadal. I love watching Federer play. He's always so composed.

zapasant, good list - well done. It would've taken you a while. I gotta say though, that is so American! Haha, I only knew about 2, 3 and 7.

As for Chris Benoit... I can't believe I used to like him.
 
I'd have to say Barry Bonds wouldn't make it into my top 25, let alone my top 10. I don't believe him when he says he's innocent, and even though a lot of them came while he was doing it the "right way" I don't respect his record at all.

ya it took me quite a while to finish, but the hardest part was excluding things i wanted on that list, like tiger wood's 13th major championship, kimmy riiokoning winning the f1 title, the pats and dolphins, the bo socks and the boston celtics big 3
 
Out of those, I think Tiger's record definitely deserves more of a spot over the Beckham thing. How did that become #2 by the way?

i didnt want to put it in there, but lets face it, it was too big, it couldnt of been ignored even if you tried, he was on the news all over the place, and the buzz all over the world was huge aswell, i mean, he's on of the greatest soccer players ever...and like it or not, soccer is the most popular sport in the world....it deserved a high ranking in my opinion
 
Well I thought it was your top ten, not what you think should be the top ten. If I were to make a top ten it would only consist of plays/events from the sports I follow, but that's just how I interpreted the thread.

what do you think of my list......what would you have changed?

feel free to express your thoughts
 
Very good number 1 selection. I had forgotten about that play. I would say 5 should be above 3. But that's my opinion. Overall, very good list!
