Canseco is not known for 1 memorable play either though, that is just his worst one. The homer vs Blue Jays in the 89 ALCS is still talked about as GOD Status by some.


Known ln more for opening the floodgates on steroids. On the field, he is known more for 40/40 and being the dominate player in the game for five years in the late 80’s

And I remember that HR. Felt like it was still going up when it landed. Ha

Franco Harris



Bo Jackson - NFL



Bo Jackson - SEC



Bo Jackson - MLB



In the NFL, SEC, and MLB, Bo made *better* plays than the ones shown above, but I would say he's gets more attention for the plays above.

Robert Horry. I know he hit more than a few big shots but this one will always been the one he's known for



Divac called that game winner by Horry a " lucky shot" & Horry gave the best response:

Tyrone Prothro


True story. So me and some buddies are at the Hyatt in Birmingham for the 2011 LSU/Bama game of the century. While walking through the galleria, we see some former Bama players signing autographs. So we walk over to tiger bait them and just see who they are. One of them is Tyrone Prothro. He was not the least bit amused that the only reason we knew who he was, was becasue of the leg injury.

I'm not sure if that is even Lett's most memorable play. Don't forget how he got his nickname "Leon Lett it Be"

Not one play, but definitely one game.

maybe now, but Dwight had a great career. Caught 500 balls. He's in the Mark Duper/Drew Pearson class.

He is in the Hall of Fame
To be fair, Maz is one of if not the most statistically unqualified players in the HOF. And while he was a great defensive player, the main reason he's in the Hall is that one play, which makes him extremely--and probably uniquely--qualified for this thread.
