All-Time Sports Moment

Scott Spiezio's three-run home run in the seventh inning of Game 6 in the 2002 World Series is by far the greatest sports moment I have ever witnessed. The Angels were trailing three games to two in the series and were down 5-0 in the game, all but sealing a World Series title for the San Francisco Giants. But Spiezio's shot down the right field line sparked an incredible comeback by the Angels, who won Games 6 and 7, bringing their first World Series trophy home to Anaheim.

Most Memorable Game Attended

Every game I'm able to attend is memorable in its own way, but perhaps the most interesting was a 21-6 pounding that the Angels delivered to the Kansas City Royals. The Angels scored 21 runs on 23 hits, with catcher Jose Molina belting a grand slam to left and outfielder Jeff DaVanon hitting for the cycle. Somehow, that night comes up in conversation every season.

Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Nolan Ryan's career strikeout record of 5,714 will never be touched. The man was a power strikeout pitcher for 25 consecutive years - no one has ever, or will ever, repeat that career. The next man on the list, Randy Johnson, is almost 1,000 strikouts behind Ryan at 4,789. Ryan was a god.

Ruth or Mays?

Ruth. Most people forget that on top of being a tremendous hitter for power and average, the Babe started as a great pitcher with a devastating curveball.

Unitas or Montana?

Montana. There's no one I'd rather have with the ball in his hand. When the game, the season, or the Super Bowl was on the line, Joe delivered.

Jordan or Russell?

It's hard to pick against a legend like Bill Russell, but Michael Jordan in his prime may have been the greatest athelete who ever lived. Jordan dominated his sport, winning six NBA Championships in eight years, and only because he took two years off to play baseball.

Gretzky or Orr?

Wayne Gretzky, hands down. Gretzky held literally every offensive record, single season or career, you could possibly think of. There's a reason he's called "The Great One."

Pele or Maradona?

It's soccer...who cares?

Federer or Sampras?

Tough pick. Between these two, I suppose I'd have to go with the number of titles and pick Federer. But the real question is who can stand up to Rafael Nadal?

Tiger or Nicklaus?

Tiger. Jack was great and still holds the record for most career majors, but Tiger is well on his way to overshadowing that record. He's already over 30, but shows no sign of slowing down.

Petty or Earnhardt?

It's NASCAR...again, who cares?

Schumacher or Senna?

F1 racing is not my forte.

ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

I'm a California kid, so I guess I have to go with the Pac 10. USC is a power year in, year out. Plus, I'm sick of the East Coast bias and listening to how bloody great the SEC is.
