How long until I run out of creative ideas on this front? Who knows, here's a random assortment of things I enjoyed watching or especially am willing to watch again and again. Some are predictable, so feel free to predict them.

I'm not sure I'm willing to watch this "again and again", but there aren't all that many moments I will go back and watch. It was certainly THE highlight of the past Olympics and a perfect culmination of my watching their career.

Time for the obvious. I almost feel like this should be higher, as I certainly think this is an objectively better sporting moment than anything else. But somehow the memory of this isn't ingrained in my mind like the others. I saw so many Raptors games last spring. I watched this one from home, right? Did the connection on my stream give out at the end? I don't think so, it was amazing, but somehow I've seen it 500 times now and it only qualifies for number 4

I watched this one while I should have been doing research in my fourth year. You have to understand European football a bit to understand this, Liverpool had Dortmund's old manager, they sing the same song, they'd managed to draw the away leg 1-1 and fell behind almost immediately. The final goal gave me chills.

I watched this in the same office as the game above. Sometimes, if you weren't there and didn't watch the whole inning, you just can't get it, so I'm not going to try. Shame they couldn't go all the way.

I've been very patriotic so far, so I'm willing to give the top spot to the enemy down south. You have to understand Mills' history a bit to appreciate this moment, but it's the biggest upset in Olympic history, and a must see for a runner. I've watched this video countless time and every morning before a running competition for the last two years.
