What game do you wish you had a video tape of?

recbball · December 25, 2009 3:20AM

Here's mine:

1984 Bears vs Vikings

This was one of the worst a$$kickings I have ever seen. The Bears D knocked out Tommy Kramer, then Wade Wilson, when it was Archie Mannings turn you could see he didn't want to go out there.

If anyone has a tape of this game let me know if I can get a copy.

scashaggy · December 25, 2009 4:20AM

Some of the Broncos games with Elway and some Dolphins games with Marino. I do have a few that I taped myself over the years. I can't think of any specific games off the top of my head though. If anyone has any please let me know as well.

Ironmanfan · December 25, 2009 4:24AM

probably the very first MLB game I was ever at back in August, 1971 @ Yankee Stadium to see the Yankees/Orioles

SDSportsFan · December 25, 2009 4:32AM

I'd absolutely love to find a videotape of the 1963 AFL Championship game between the Chargers and Patriots.

The Chargers won 51-10 behind 206 yards and 1 TD rushing (on only 13 carries), and another 123 yards (on 7 catches) and a TD receiving by Keith Lincoln!

Paul Lowe had 12 carries for 94 yards and a touchdown, Lance Alworth had 4 catches for 77 yards and a touchdown, Tobin Rote was 10 of 15 for 173 yards passing with 2 touchdowns, and John Hadl was 7 of 11 for 132 yards and a touchdown!

NFL-Any game from the early 1950's just to see how brutal the game was compared to todays game

College Football-November 1993 Boston College beating #1 Notre Dame

MLB-1955 World Series game 7 Brooklyn beating the Yanks

That double-OT Chargers/Dolphins playoff game in 1985 (?) that the Chargers won something like 41-38.... the one where Kellen Winslow Sr. had to be basically carried off the field after it was over with heat stroke or something. That game had it all. I think the 'fins even successfully pulled off a hook-and-lateral for a TD.

VitoCo1972 · December 25, 2009 7:28AM

The Gonzaga/Michigan State game from 4-5 years ago with Adam Morrison and Gonzaga and Maurice Ager from Michigan State. Both teams shot 90% from the field for the second half and both overtimes. Was the best basketball game I ever saw.

Yankees001 · December 25, 2009 7:32AM

The first MLB All-Star game. Tons of Hall of Famers.

But, never seen one for sale.

lawnmowerman · December 25, 2009 7:58AM

I would have to go with the 1993 playoff game between the Giants and the Cowboys. It was the game Emmitt separated his shoulder but played on regardless. He finished with 168 yds rushing on 32 attempts. 113 yards coming after the injury.

The cowboys went on to win the game 16-13 in OT.

judgebuck · December 25, 2009 11:57AM

How about a Koufax perfect game from 1965 season (I think)? They say the last three innings he through nothing but fastballs, and no one stood a chance. If my memory serves me correctly, he struck out the side in the last three innings.

Or, how about Chamberlain's 100-point NBA game in 1962?

Or, the last day of the 1986 Masters golf tournament where Jack Nicklaus, at age 46, played one of the greatest rounds of golf in history?

goraiders · December 25, 2009 12:13PM

I would love to see the 85 bears/rams playoff game,actually
I would like to have the bears run to the S.B.,no points allowed.
I was a wide eyed 10yr. old,who loved defense.I would be a bears fan today
if not for the Raiders 84 S.B. win,thats when I made my descion not to follow my
dad's favorite team{Rams}and get my own team.

It's not a classic but I would love to have the full game when McGwire broke the HR record.

I remember peering out of the door (I was a young one) watching it on TV and the moment he hit that HR, and the festivities that followed will always be a great sports moment.

Actually he struck out the last batter in the 6th , the first batter in the 7th , the next two flew out , then Koufax struck out the last 6 batters of the game.

Evening,
Wow, I even remember that game, wasn't there like a three or five time lateral as they ran down the field to win the game!!!

You should note the NFL sold games are edited so that you only see the what happens while the clock is moving...for the most part. Very little...almost none of the sideline or between play stuff. You could likely find bootlegs on the net with everything....but quality is always a question....and there is a the bootleg factor. Anyway, good luck finding them. I will however suggest if you find one at Best Buy, not to do the Super Bowl shuffle while in the checkout line.

tennesseebanker · December 25, 2009 1:04PM

I actually have all the Giants games from the 86 Season including Playoffs and Super Bowl on Vhs somewhere at my parents house.
Now,If I only had something to watch them on.

I have a tape of the last nine holes. I remember watching it live and thinking " wow, something special is happening here" and I turned on the VCR.

Wilt's 100-point game. But such a video does not exist.

I would love to have full footage games of the 30's/40's Bears/Redskins games to see Baugh, Luckman, Grange, Nagurski etc in action....but I would love to see the 1950 opening day game between the 1949 NFL champion Eagles and the 1949 AAFC Champion Browns....Browns were supposed to be slaughtered coming from the "inferior" league. The Browns rocked the football world that day!

RoarIn84 · December 25, 2009 6:26PM

i wouldn't mind owning the 1919 world series, or perhaps a game with Ty Cobb at his most raw evil!!! would be fun to watch the 1979 Tigers/Sox game with the Disco Demolition afterward. it was broadcast!! The Larsen perfect game has just been released, so i can scratch that off the list...

Matt,
I think I may have this game on VHS tape. I have most of early 90's big games of the Cowboys taped. I will have to dig it out of storage. If I have it, I will make you a copy and send it out to you as a BIG thank you for organizing the Secret Santa exchange. PM me your address.

32? world series Ruth vs. Cubs called shot game.

gumbyfan · December 26, 2009 12:50AM

August 14, 1992 - Brewers vs Red Sox at old Milwaukee County Stadium. Jim Gantner hit the game winning homer in the bottom of the 13th. I still remember Bob Uecker's call......

"hit's one to right and deep...get up, get up, get outta here...GONE...a dinger for klinger and this game is over! Whoa Jimmy Gantner!"

Gantner only had 47 career homeruns. I don't recall all of them, but this is the only walk off shot that I'm aware of.

True it was not a playoff game but it was a HUGE game nonetheless. Home field advantage thru the playoffs was on the line. And did i mention i was at the game

I obtained a bootleg copy of this game and I have to apologize to Archie Manning. Tommy Kramer was inactive for the game and Archie Manning started the game.
The Bears had 11 sacks that game and Archie took all 11 of them. A very courageous effort even though he didn't have a chance. Wade Wilson came in to mop up after Manning was knocked out by a vicious hit by Otis Wilson. I guess my memory is a little fuzzy 25 years later.

HeritageSports · January 11, 2010 2:19AM

It would be pretty cool if decent video of the Called Shot game surfaced--I realize there is some footage, but it's about as clear as the Bigfoot tapes--so we could know once and for all if the Babe really did it.

richtree · January 11, 2010 2:51AM

BILLS COMEBACK WITH NO COMMERICALS JUST LIKE TOM HANKS SAID IN BIG.

NO QUESTION.

What game do you wish you had a video tape of?
