I love that shite, thanks for sharing. Damn, I think I must be cutting onions or something.

Most brag-worthy: I tackled Stevan Ridley his Sr year of HS.

Most important: Scored a goal and a PK in our state championship game my jr year.

Best(overall): Ripped a shot upper 90 from 35 yards out to go up with only a couple of minutes left.

ETA: Apparently I read this wrong. I'd have to say when Drogba scored a header in the CL final last season to take it to OT.

Yeah, one of those unforgettable moments. I'm probably always going to get chills remembering that night:

Sports are awesome.

This championship was the first one me, my dad, and my brother all went to. Met up with my dad in parking lot after and he grabbed the champagne outta my hand and took a big swig. Had the biggest smile on his face. Honestly almost cried when I saw him and mom coming outta the stadium. Bama football has always been mine and his "thing".

Bartending on Bourbon Street for the Saints Super Bowl. Just a special special day. To see the reaction in the bar when Porter took it to the house... I will never forget it

Damn, think this room's a little dusty. That's awesome

Really hoping A&M cashes in on a title during my dad's lifetime. He's an Ag, and the biggest reason I chose to go to A&M. Not to bring up sour memories for you, but when he called me after the Bama game, I'd never heard him so excited in my life--sounded like a kid on Christmas. As bad as I want A&M to win, I want it more to share that moment with him.

Absolutely know what you mean. No sour grapes at all. Hope we get you next year though.

One of my very best friends went to Auburn. As much as I hated Auburn winning in 2010, I was ecstatic he got to experience that while he was a student.

I guess my personal moment was when I was in college and playing a ton of softball. We were getting to be a pretty good team and entered a big tournament in the summer. We played out of our heads and won the whole thing. I had some good games and hit two home runs in the championship game. A sportswriter of the local newspaper came up to me and handed me a trophy. He said I was named MVP of the tournament. The cool thing was going to a bar afterwards to celebrate. I put the trophy on the table and all my buddies started chanting MVP, MVP, MVP, etc. It seems a little silly now, but when you're 22 years old, it was a cool moment.

I could go on and on about wrestling matches. Those stick with me. Once hit a standing granby for a pin. I'll post a video of the move. It's pretty insane looking.


I'll admit that I don't know a lot about wrestling as my high school didn't even have it as a sport. I do admire the heck out of wrestlers and it really ticks my off that the Olympic Committee decided to drop it as an Olympic sport.

I never really had an interest until my sophomore year. I got hooked immediately. It's a sport that you either fall in love with or decide its not for you. Lotta work, but damn it was rewarding. Just the individual aspect made it appealing to me. It was all on you. Not your teammates.

And yeah, its a travesty the IOC dropped it. I hope it comes back.

No, that's a pretty cool story. Wish I could say something like that.
That would be pretty fricking awesome to walk into a bar with a MVP trophy.

I think we got something like $300 for winning the tournament. We opened a tab and drank it all away. We were pouring beer over our heads like we had won the World Series-good times.

Hartley kick to send the Saints to the Superbowl

Porter interception to win the Superbowl



Cried like a bitch. Complete euphoria, and not sure if anything can ever top it.

Ordonez's HR in the ALCS to send the Tigers to the WS...i was 16, but i had always been so used to seeing shite baseball in Detroit and that was really the first baseball team I fully followed. Seeing them make the WS was something I'd never thought happen.

MSU vs. Wisc 2011 was up there, the hail mary, i was screaming so loud when that happened.

Florida vs. SC 2006...Jarvis Moss
