Only 40, but I think this might be not only the play of the day or year, but the best, most ridiculous play I’ve seen in my life. I can’t really think of one that compares. Still running it through in my mind in a vain attempt to come to terms with it…I guess I might compare it to Bird’s steal and immediate pass to new HOFer DJ (appropriately enough) vs. Detroit….
Except Bird got to look, at least for a second. Just an incredible play.

How many takes did it take to get that to look so natural?

I’ve watched and coached and played the game for about 50 years now, and I’ve never seen a play like that. Thank you Mark Buehrle for adding another spec ial Opening Day memory.
This gives me chills. Wow!
