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.

Dwayne Wade Posters Anderson Varejao
The NBA, where Anderson Varejao posters happen.
If you have seen the dunk, you'll know why; and if you haven't check it out on the link already! It's FILTHY! - 7
Brett Farve Lasers a Game Winning TD Pass
He still has it. I don't care if he's 40 with multiple retirements under his belt or just throwing bad passes to the other team, if he still has that Farve magic, I want him on my side (assuming Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are taken). When I saw that play, it was a flashback to vintage gun slinging Farve as he zinged one to Greg Lewis at the end of the endzone for a touchdown. - 8
Pacquiao KOs Hatton
I didn't see this fight live and I knew the outcome before I saw the actual fight. Even still, watching Pacman fight, recorded or whatever is still a delight. He is so graceful and full of speed that it leaves you to speculate whether that is humanly possible. There are no set of phrases or words that describes the fight and Pacquiao's greatness without committing injustice to the fight; so for your own good, watch the KO.
PS: Sorry the version is so crappy, all I could find on youtube. - 9
Dwight Howard Denies Ray Allen
Dwight Howard, like Lebron James is a freak athlete, with freakish hops and superhuman strength. They, especially Dwight, are like god playing amongst men. In this play Dwight is all the way in the back court while Allen is near the 3 point line. As Allen mistakenly drives in to get an easier bucket, Dwight comes down the court and as Allen tosses the ball up towards the rim, he glides in pops up into the air effortlessly and swats the ball as if it were a fly to the onlookers in the 4th row. He is able to pull off this play with sheer determination with unmatched physique. - 10
Ray Lewis Flattens Darren Sproles
Every game in football is important because the season is so short unlike baseball and basketball. So when the Chargers needed to get a first down or a touchdown or else the game would be over, they chose to run the ball. Little did they realize what was waiting for them on the other side... or rather their side. Check out the video and you too will feel the hurtin' that Ray Lewis delivers. In the words of an ESPN analyst (or segment on one of their many, many shows) "HE GOT JACKED UP!!!"
