Top 10 Sports Plays 2009
Compared to 2008, sport plays in 2009 were not as shocking and unbelievable. Having sad that, 2009 did have its moment, and while they weren't Michael Phelps winning 8 gold medals or Michael Crabtree's game winning catch to knock the Horns out of national title contention, it was still a solid year in sports in terms of memorable moments. All of the plays mention below are either clutch (Like Mike) or unbelievably jaw dropping insanity.

Santonio Holmes Game Winning Superbowl TD Catch
Larry Fitzgerald had just scored a touchdown for the Cardinals, all hope seemed lost for the steel curtain faithful. Then all of a sudden, Ben Roethlisberger leads his Steelers to about the 8-yd line, and after hiking the ball, zips it to Holmes. With 3 defenders clobbered all over him, and the ball thrown outside the endzone sideline, Holmes leans forward while keeping both feet in bound and brings the ball back to his chest and secures it for 6, the MVP trophy and the Superbowl ring. It was just an incredible catch during the biggest game and under the brightest lights... No pressure at all. - 2
Devin Harris Half Court Buzzer Beater
This shot was ridiculous and probably 1 in a billion especially given the situation. Harris with a last second heave to try and win the game, gets stripped of the ball, but the ball lands straight back into his hands and he rainbows it in as the buzzer sounds and clock stops at 0.0. - 3
Ovechkin's Amazing Goal
I don't watch Hockey much, and I usually regard it as boring stuff, but after seeing this goal by Ovechkin, I was at first shocked at the incredible goal, then a rush of excitement came over me as it shed a light on the awesomeness of artistic individual play on the ice floor. This is a must see highlight for any sports loving fan. - 4
Lebron James Stun the Magics
Eastern Conference finals, game 2, on your own floor, about to down 0-2 to the Orlando Magic. Lebron was not having any of that. He reached down his heart and fished out some magic of his own as he drained a buzzer beating 3 pointer to even up the series. There's a saying that stars are born in the playoffs, well Lebron had already arrived. He was just a beast that finally woke up! - 5
Usain Bolt Beats Own 100m World Record
The fastest man on the planet. His speed is unreal. I was hyped when he broke the record at the Olympics last year. When he broke his own record this year, I was just speechless. It doesn't look like he's going at 100% reserve too, therefore I will state that lightning will strike again. Just wow...
