ESPY's (Best Play)

Ok so while we gear up for football I'll stay away form more baseball and soccer analysis as so many of you hate the sports.

What better thing for a sport's addict than the awards show for sports. IT's a way to combine reality (based on real stats) with fantasy( how do you compare an olympic snowboarder with an NFL QB)? The awards are July 17 so until then I will average a prediction a day.

Today i do Best Play:
1.) Nathan Vashem -- Longest NFL play. He returned a missed field goal 106 yards. He used blockers amazingly and was a great play. (I barely remember it)

2.) Tyrone Prothro -- Alabama Catch. Won the game with this catch over LSU. He jumped up, reached OVER the LSU defender and ripped the ball out of the other players hands. (Saw tape of it incessently)

3.) David Wright -- one handed catch. He was running away from better and one handed a catch. (BIAS alert -- he's a local hero in hampton roads...I never saw this play on tape or live)

4.) Aaron Rowand -- Recklessly crashed into outfield wall to make catch for Phillies. Play came days after he noted to team how dangerous wall was. Broke his nose and went on DL for the catch. (BIAS alert -- my favorite baseball team)

5.) Reggie Bush -- Punt return. Solidified Reggie's legendary status this year against Washington as he pinballed his way down field on a punt return.

MY CHOICE -- Tyrone Prothro. . To me to win a best play it should be spectacular and have meaning in the game. David Wright, Reggie Bush and Nathan Vashem's were all spectacular but I don't believe they had have overly significant game meaning (I may be wrong). Aaron Rowands catch meant a lot in the game and started a winning streak for the Phils but the outfield wall crash is overdone. Prothro's catch i had never seen before. A guy climbing over another to make a catch out of the others hands. All this to win a game. That gets my vote.
