Power Pros Forum

Well, it's New Year's Eve folks, and another year of sports is in the books. There have been plenty of big moments, but which was was the biggest? Was it Eli's sideline pass to Mario Manningham? Miguel Cabrera's triple crown? LeBron James's first ring? Anything from the Olympics? Or maybe it's something else. Whatever it is, make sure to tell us and help us reminisce on the high points of 2012.

I probably should've asked you if I should take PoTD. No hard feelings, right?

Anyways, I think it was all of the no-hitters and perfect games pitched in MLB this season, especially King Felix's.

Well I mean, you can still delete it. But there's no hard feelings

Since it's the last day of the year, I think that it's alright for there to be two polls.

I'd say probably The Pass. Manning to Manningham. That basically won the super bowl for the Giants.

Steven Stamkos' 60th goal for the Tampa Bay Lightning, the LA Kings winning their first Stanley Cup...oh, and the Lockout.

Sigh.

I do agree, Felix Hernandez's Perfect Game was quite nice, even if it was against the Rays. We always seem to be the victim here.

Well, I mean, it's not like you guys have a top-notch offense. The last three times I've seen them play, they've scored a combined 3 runs. Granted, the Red Sox only scored a combined 5, so...

And with BJ Upton gone, the offense isn't going to get much better unless Longoria stays injury free, which I doubt, and if Wil Myers continues to bat around 30%. The main draw to the Rays is small-ball and speed with great pitching, but it just sucks that the Rays couldn't even get one hit, not trying to take anything away from Felix, he's a great pitcher.

Zach Greinke trade.

I suppose it would have to be LeBron James getting his title.

Not a lot of moments come to mind for me in Sports this year, so I'd have to agree on the 60 goal thing.

Michael Phelps breaking the Olympic medal record is probably the biggest one in my opinion.

Are we aloud to say sad things too? I found it big when I saw Freel shot him-self. R.I.P. Ryan Freel.
