OT-ish - Iconic Sports Calls of the last 25 years
So all across my twitter feed today there have been pictures of one quite iconic call from 25 years ago on this date:
Shot on Ehlo.... GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!
If you didn't picture Jordan's jump and fistpump, you haven't been paying attention. What other calls stand out to you in the last 25 years? Any Michigan related? One that sticks in my brain is "GALLON, they left him alone!" It always amazes me how hearing radio and/or TV calls can bring one back to exactly where they were the moment they heard it.
Not too sound like a dick but that was more than 25 years ago
"...Pavelski there slipped one in front, Kane a shot off of him, they score! Zach Parise out of a net-bound scramble and the game is tied!"
I do believe the shot over Ehlo was more than 25 years ago.
Random one that popped into my head with all the Keith Jackson/ Desmond talk was when Desmond played Florida State and Casey Weldon and Terrel Buckley picked Grbac off as he passed to Desmond. Keith Jackson:
"Buckley's got one!"
Play I never forgot because I hated the play so much. We lost in a shoot out.
"And it IS...TAKEN AWAY! BY EDWARDS! SPECTACULAR TOUCHDOWN!!"
"He's got Domi out there..Probert's talking to him right now...BINGO BABY!! Proberts got the boxing gloves on tonight!!"
"...for the extra point by John Carney, and he makes- NOOOOOOOO! He missed the extra point wide right! Oh my god, how could he do that?!"
Oh, that's brutal.
"Let's see what happens on the free throw...Michigan leads it."
Championship.
No good ... wide right
