Favorite moments from the recently departed

With all the most recent cuts, it got me thinking about some of my favorite moments from each player. just thought i would share with my fellow cohorts.
Roman Harper
I loved his fumble recovery when we played the Rams a few years back. Thought it really encapsulated Roman's play. He gets a turnover but cant make it down the field, gets caught by Bradford, and immediately starts sucking down oxygen.
I also loved when he pushed Steve Smith extremely late after he scored. "No one walks in on us." (even though he did).
Jonathan Vilma
this one is tough to single out. My favorite part of Vilma has to be his mindset. He genuinely wanted the best for our entire team and it showed. I will really miss his football IQ and hope to see him on the sidelines in some capacity.
Will Smith
Easy. Hitting on white women at Lucy's.
Jabari Greer
I always enjoyed reading his articles. Really cool insight and got to know the man under the helmet. Hope he does more of this now.
Lance Moore
Besides his astounding dance moves, THE 2-point conversion will forever be Moore's greatest moment to me. That play will always stay with me. I can remember all the emotions attached to seeing that play happen.
Darren Sproles
Besides showing that short people can do awesome stuff too, his returns were always exciting to watch. When he was on, he was gone. When the ball was in the air, there was always that possibility of us being witness to a great return.
This was also a great moment:
To all you great men of the Black and Gold:
I just cant wait to hear everyone elses favorites!!!

Great job BnG.
All of those are great choices.
But I had to post a gif of big Will.

Harper-not a single play, but the game at Atlanta 2-3 years ago when he had 10+ tackles and a huge 4th down stop in the backfield
Moore-easily the 2 pt conversation.
Sproles- believe it or not, his punt return for a TD that was called back against the Pack on opening night will always stay in my mind. Incredible spin moves and speed made me forget about Reggie quickly.
Smith-he had his moments, but unfortunately not a single play stood out for me over the years.
Greer- his pick 6 against the Falcons in 09 against on MNF in the dome was number 1 for me.
Vilma- not an actual play, but his audible before Porter picked Favre in the NFCC was clutch.

this makes my least favorite moment list.
I'm actually very happy that I don't have to see LM pop up from a first down catch and start acting like a fool. It was at its worst this past season, we'd be down by multiple touchdowns and he'd get up from a 10 yd reception dancing and trash talking. It's like I was hoping an opposing player would come bitch slap him and point at the scoreboard.
it was the debt we owed for that 2pt conversion (favorite moment) I suppose.

Love that Sproles gif.
I'd also like to contribute one from someone we lost a while back.

Everyone remembers the Porter pick 6.not as many remember the vilma coverage 30 yards down the field a few plays before.
These guys were the legitimate hometown sports heros we didn't have as kids.

Well Smith obviously doesn't get alot of love here even though he had some great seasons through about 2010. I remember his rookie year he came on the field after an injury and our defense wasn't playing great, can't remember who we were playing. Will Smith came in and just started dominating and one of the coaches had to get in his face to tell him to calm down, at least that's what commentator and I thought He just really stood out and I was thinking man this dude is gonna be a good player. Seemed he got a couple sacks and several tackles over a couple series and then a roughing the passer call and he was jacked up. The man played some great years here and was a true leader for our team. Much love
I never understood the dislike towards him. He still played good ball even after his big contract although I will say he was already getting up there in age and imo was too old to be getting the money he got. His last good pass rushing year was 09 but he did good against the run through 2010-11. Yea, 2012 he absolutely sucked

In that Sunday night game against Pittsburg to n 2010 will Smith played like an absolute man possessed throughout the game especially on the goal line stand.
