I just discovered the music video for Dire Strait's song "Walk on Life" and I love how it has all these athlete cameos...how many can you name?

PS: The one with Rollie Fingers and his Brewers celebrating was tricky because at first I only remembered them going to the 1982 World Series and they weren't celebrating that...it was the year before when they clinched the "2nd half AL East" title (boy did they do the 1981 strike season weird).
