    That was a special team.
    Mike Cuellar, Jim Palmer, Frank Robinson, Big Boog Powell...
    When I was a boy, went to a Pete Ward camp and Don Buford and Paul Blair (outfielders) were there..

    Here is the best play ever by the Minnesota Vikings



    What is Billy Kilmer doing catching passes anyway? It's all his fault. (I only remember him being the QB for the Redskins).

    I once solved this Wheel Of Fortune “Before and After” in 2 seconds with no letters filled in. The answer just popped into my head.

    If we're going to go fictional, it has to be the 195-yard shot on the last hole to win the Masters by the former greenskeeper who came out of nowhere.

    That reminded me of this "play" by Danny Ainge.

    FF to 1:03 if you are impatient but it helps to see what happened before the "play".

    You win. How could I have forgotten that shot??? Amazing!

    Although, when Ty had to drop a ball in Carl's room and play throught it..... That was a pretty good shot too....
