Uecker's commercial was one of best commercials ever.

Uecker's awesome. It's amazing how he attained celebrity status from being such a bad ballplayer. One of the first times I was in the press box for a Brewers game, I had just gotten done eating in the press cafeteria and was on my way to the box when Uecker was walking toward me in a Hawaiian shirt. All he says is, "Howdy!" and all I could think was, "That's such a Uecker thing to say."

Mike Gundy...I respect him for standing up for his players and finally seeing someone stand up to the media. But every time I watch it I just can't help but laugh. "I'm a man. I'm 40." That is just funny. The Jimmy V speech is one every person should really watch and spend some time reflecting on. He was a great man and he some great things to say every time he talked. God Bless him.

I loved the gundy speech... much like a certain user (heh!), the media is extremely contrarian...and they ripped gundy for defending his players...but more likely they were ripping gundy because they were defending their own...i understand but it annoys me

And lastly, Tiger is one lucky man. My, my I hope I'm half as lucky as he is one day.

I'll probably get minuses for this, but Laettner's shot is one of my favorite memories.

That game was lost when Sherman chose to punt rather than go for it late in the 4th.

Ahh Jimmy V's speech, possibly the best sports speech ever, it's right up there. During the V Foundation chairty event this year they replayed his speech on ESPN Radio while I was on my way through LA to San Diego and I had tears in traffic. I tear up a little bit every time I listen to it, he was a great man and an incredible inspiration .
