Cool

[Rylan]

While I despise Holmes, that is one helluva catch.

i want to buy a copy of the folks on top of the cathredal watching the world series at forbes. can't ever find a good sized framed one. not really sure where to look, either.

Numbah foah, Bawby Oah!

[MWB]

Surprised "The Catch" isn't in there. It's one of their signature covers.

[Rylan]

Isn't "The Catch" #97?

[MWB]

Weird. On iPad I can't see every 4th picture. So I only have the 75 greatest photos.

[Rylan]

lol fair enough.

[TheHammer24]

Tons of great photos, and it seems impossible to order them. But, the top 20 seem totally out of place outside of the Jordan one. I though Ali-Lisbon could be #1.

[Ben Klingston]

Orr is there. While the Maz HR is represented twice, not having *this* is an omission

[ajh2298]

IMO as far as hockey goes #80 and #78 should be a little higher and #9 should be much lower.

Also where is the pic of Lambert sitting on the bench all bruised and beat up?

agreed. some of them seemed like they were great sports moments but the picture wasn't that good

[Idoit40fans]

There are some great ones there and some puzzling ones. Some that were great moments bad pictures, some that are just completely out of place.

[shmenguin]

usa hockey #1
muhammed ali #2

...then the rest

[LeopardLetang]

never saw that clemente photo before, which was cool, but there are certainly 3 or 4 better ones if you want to capture him specifically. one where he's got bats leaning on him on deck, one where he's just posing but looking off in to the sky like royalty, ones where he's running or swinging or throwing which are more unique to him than just standing there ready to swing, and of course doffing his cap after his 3000th and final hit before his noble death. i mean, that one could have been in the running for #1

Is it true that the Penguins were the first to take the "team" picture around the stanley cup?

[canaan]

Is it true that the Penguins were the first to take the "team" picture around the stanley cup?

right after the cup was won?

[KennyTheKangaroo]

they have a stupid picture of vince young with confetti but they left off the famous picture of YA Tittle at pitt stadium? mularkey.

[mikey287]

No. I think the Oilers started that. We were the first to visit the White House I believe. Though who knows if we would have been the first, we were the only American winners from 1984-1993!

[cheesesteakwithegg]

Gretzky is there twice, but no Mario. List is invalid.

[DudeMan2766]

Numbero Uno

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

I think this list is limited to pictures that have appeared in SI, so some pictures like Maz running the bases and the YA Title picture wouldn't be included.

Spoiler:

#7 saved a season with a tackle

[DudeMan2766]

Still have no idea why that doofus Harper cut to the inside on that run. He basically ran straight towards Ben
