Cool moments in sports

Captain Beefheart · 11-10-2007, 04:06 PM

I think it's things like that that we watch sports for, which is sort of antithetical to all the hype and commercilization and eventilization of sports today. We want to see something completely raw and human. And in general now there is a lot of artifice in the way. But every so often sports does provide a moment or two that really puts chills down your spine.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

wow. both great vids. That first one I never tire of watching, reminds me of how you never stop being a parent to your children, and how its truly your most important work if you choose to take on the job.

I felt physically ill during the playoffs two years ago when Bettis fumbled the ball after the Steelers had just stopped the Colts on 4th down with like a minute and a half left. So what does Vanderjerk do? Kick it, perpendicular to the goalpost. Unfreakingwitable. Reading the words that came out of Tony Dungys mouth when he missed that kick and the camera zommed in were priceless. "He missed it" and then he just smiled away.

Not sports related per se, but yeah:

Can you really score from a throw in right into the goal like in the first vid?

Spin Teacher · 11-11-2007, 03:17 PM

I don't know why it wouldn't be allowed, I've certainly played with guys who can throw that far.

**Ophelia** · 11-11-2007, 04:06 PM

Law 15 of FIFA.
A throw-in is a method of restarting play.
A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in.

Just looked it up, it just looks like he gets a goal from the way the fans are going nuts.

Spin Teacher · 11-11-2007, 08:46 PM

I don't know then, but what's a free kick considered? Isn't that a way of restarting play? I'm far from a soccer expert so I'm just curious.
