Flashback Fridays: What's The Greatest Sports Highlight of All Time? It's Gotta Be Jordan in '98 ... Right?

Posted on February 28, 2008 11:29 PM

Ayo SOHH, ESPN has been narrowing down highlights in their 'The Greatest Highlight' spotlight for a minute and now they're down to the final two:


Boise State's Statue of Liberty Beats Oklahoma (Jan. 1, 2007)


vs.


Mike Eruzione's Goal Gives USA Lead Over U.S.S.R. in Miracle on Ice (Feb. 22, 1980)



Yea, both are dope, but greatest sports highlight of all time!? Get the f**k outta here! They must be smoking that oooh weee up in ESPN headquarters in Connecticut. I don't care if the general public votes. ESPN has to live with it. Both those highlights are cool, but they ain't the best ever!


To me the best sports highlight of all time is Michael Jordan's jumper against the Jazz, which gave the Bulls their sixth title. Relive it here, homies!


Come on! Y'all got to feel me on this being the greatest sports highlight EVER. I mean look at the breakdown of the play. From the strip and steal of Karl Malone in the post, to driving down the court, working on Byron Russell, putting on the brakes (getting away with the ill push-off), rising up with the J, shooting the ball at its apex and letting the hand hang, while on his tip-toes.

THE GOD MJ! NO BETTER!


Now, that's my greatest sports highlight EVER; not some college football or hockey moment, ya diiig. And that Jordan highlight would be even better if he didn't come back again because his return took away from that moment. But still, there's no better sports highlight, dogs! I don't care what y'all say!


SOHH weigh in on it: WHAT'S THE GREATEST SPORTS HIGHLIGHT?

Your Boy,

  • Greatest highlight, I know those plays are 'important', but if they were played on a regular game(not playoffs) they probably wouldnt even make the top 10.
    I've been following this contest, and I cant believe there isnt ONE soccer highlight on there... but whatever......
    DEREK FISHER a.k.a Mr .04 against the spurs is def. a lot better than both of them.
    JOE CARTER's home run in 1993?
    ESPN just lost a lot of credibility... sheiiiiiiiiiiit without going that far, ELI-TYREE play is better than what they got goin on.

  • AYOOOOO..ballsy you right about Connecticut. Them white heads smoke that dope. We smoke that BUD. Anyway the greatest sport highlight i think is the best is that Saints play when they kept throwing the ball behind them. Jordan play is up there to. No push off he just crossed the shit out of him.

  • FUKK MJ! He is the most overrated player in NBA history. Now the Best moment in sports hisstory was this year's superbowl. And david tyree's catch to help the gians win.

    You just mad joe cause the B I T C H
    A S S knick couldn't never beat us. Even after yall beat us in 7 games without Jordan in the 94 east finals. the SOUTH "Houston" beat your lame A S S E S in the 94 NBA final.

  • ^^^^^^^^^^
    You must be braindedead when it comes to basketball if you call a man who has lead his team to 3 consecutive titles twice!!!. It's on thing to not be a big fan but the most overrated?...Get The Fuck Outta Here With That Bullshit! You're lame ass thinks the best moment in sports history was a play by the giants that didn't even win the game?...It set them up to win it but It didn't win it. This is the greatest player of all time ending his Chicago career with a perfect jumpshot to win a championship...You must be 12yrs old. You dumb fuck.

  • MJ overrated????

    FUCK outta here. How can somebody retire, win 3 rings prior to that and come back and win 3 more rings. You call that overrated. Kobe, Lebron, Shaq, Nash; nobody can do that. Yo, and dont talk about the kicks either. MJ overrated?You should kill yourself right now B I T C H. If he didnt retire MJ would have a least 7 rings possibly 4 in a row. If anybody is overrated its:
    OJ Mayo. Derrick Rose is better than him.
    Disagree holla at me.

  • THE BEST SPORTS HIGHLIGHT EVER IS WHEN GEORGE TEAGUE RAN DOWN LAMAR THOMAS TRASH TALKIN ASS AND STRIPPED THE BALL FROM HIM, IN THE 1992 ALABAMA VS. MIAMI SUGARBOWL. ALABAMA SHUT THE HURRICANES DOWN THAT NIGHT.
    ROLL TIDE !!!!

  • LETS GO LAKERS !!!

  • JJ The Truth says...
  • Its The Best Highlight of All Time... And THIS IS MY OPINION ...
    When MJ Drove Down The Lane And Switched Hands On them Lakers Boys...
    Magic has been quoted many time as saying " I stopped playing defense and started watching he's on another level"

    ^That HR by Carter in '93 was huge too...

  • February 29, 2008 10:30 AM
  • Tab says...
  • That Jordan Play is the Truth...I don't like the ESPN thing...it could be fixed...
    "The Play" from Cal and Stanford still does it for me and also that Kirk Gibson Homer over The A's in 88 was big....

    What About Vince Young 4th down touchdown in the Rose Bowl Beating USC...That was HUGE!!

    @ Ballsy,

    "The Shot: 98 Edition" should've been #1 off G.P.

    @ Chi-Town MidWest

    yeah MJ was born in Brooklyn, but that don't hide the fact that the Knicks were nothing more than a stepping stone 4 MJ, plus they can eat a fat one 4 the way they treated Big Pat

  • The best highlight ever is When A.I. Crossed M.J.
