The Top 5 Sports Commentary Moments

Written by in Uncategorized

A week ago, a British sports commentator was fired because of a sexist comment made when he believed the microphone to be off. The story was widely covered around the world and shows that being a sports commentator comes with its own set of challenges and responsibilities. Fortunately the profession also offers some very unique opportunities. While some of the best sports commentators are genuinely admired and appreciated for the drama, humor and passion they bring to the game, the very best of them are simply never forgotten!

What defines great sports commentary? Simply sharing your insights and knowing when to shut-up are clearly not good enough. Truly memorable commentary, the kind that firmly engraves itself in our collective memory, can only stands out because when the commentator is as passionate about the game as the audience itself.Some commentators are never forgotten, because their words were (almost) as memorable and inspirational as the events they covered. Below is a Top Five of some of the most iconic sport commentary ever. Some was given before I was even born but most certainly deserves its place in this top 5!

5. “The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!”

Major League Baseball, New York Giants – Brooklyn Dodgers
3 October 1951,Russ Hodges, WMCA-AM radio

4. “They think it’s all over”

1966 FIFA World Cup Final, England – Germany
30 July 1966, Kenneth Wolstenholme, BBC

3. “Do you believe in miracles?”

1980 Winter Olympics medal-round, USA – Soviet Union
22 February, 1980, Al Michaels, ABC

2. “Maggie Thatcher can you hear me?”

FIFA World Cup qualifier, Norway – England
9 September 1981, Bjørge Lillelien, Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation

1. “Cosmic Kite, what planet did you come from?”

1986 FIFA World Cup quarter final, Argentina – England
22 June 1986, Victor Hugo Morales, Radio Argentina
