Quite a subjective question.

Game 6 of 2011 World Series was a great, great game.

Me being banned from playing basketball in Yeshiva because the other team didn't stand a chance.

That was back when I was 20 years younger and 100 pounds lighter. These days I get charley horse at the mere sight of a basketball...

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

I truly believe its this:
https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/07/02/on-this-date-1963-marichal-outduels-spahn-in-16-inning-showdown/

Juan Marichal vs. Warren Spahn (16 innings) Game ended 1-0
Both pitchers pitched the entire game. Threw over 200 pitches each.

Back then they weren't analytical losers like they are today.

Camp ended early today, or did you steal Mommy’s iPhone 12 mini for the day?

I stole it because she has a blue case and team red is the best team in the world! Even though they said it was a tie...

Definitely, the sof zman Bochurim vs Kollel basketball game.

How's that for a long-shot?
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.
