Want to cover a real nba conspiracy nobody knows about? Look at Phoenix vs bulls and how Paul Westphaul ,Kevin Johnson, and the refs gave the bulls that series. I'll explain. When Dan,Danny,and Dumas was at the 1,2,&3 the Suns ran the score up. But for some strange reason Paul would substitute Kevin for Danny and he would magically give the ball away or make a bad shot. There was even a commercial during the series asking about Paut coaching. Im pretty sure the cyber nerds can find it. Thank me later
Facts 💪🏿
Went to all of State's ncaa tournament games that season. After the loss to Syracuse, I gave my ticket to a friend who lived in NYC. The stay in Manhattan was nice otherwise, nice town.
I am so jealous of you. That Bulldogs team was so incredible from my point of view. I would have loved to have seen all of those tourney games. That UCONN game would have been fun to have seen in person. Thanks for watching the video. Much love to Mississippi State.
i'd rather replace "underrated" with "not properly remembered": following the NBA since late '70s I remember well all of them
Only a journeyman would sucker punch A HOF QB
I gotta say, I really liked this video and the 90s Saints video. I'm a lifelong Saints fan down in New Orleans so it's nice to see good historical content about us. Now, I was 12 when the Saints won their first playoff game, so I was pretty young but I was starting to understand the game more, I'd just gotten NFL 2K for the Sega Dreamcast and that was when I'd say I really learned football. The main thing I remember from this era, more than anything else, was the intense hatred my parents and everyone their age had for Aaron Brooks, and I believe it really came down to a few things: 1) He was never consistent, he would have his really good games and he would have some atrocious games, and he was very streaky. Honestly in hindsight how I'd describe Derek Carr today really. That alone wouldn't have been so bad if it were not for 2) how he dealt with the bad games. He smiled when he threw picks and that just really rubbed people the wrong way. I remember vividly the time he just literally dropped the ball behind his back going for a pass and again, the smile afterwards. I read somewhere that was a stress coping mechanism but I couldn't tell you where I read it or whether that's true, but noone would've realized it back then anyway so it just came off more like he didn't care. Which is probably massively unfair, but it is what it is. Noone liked the vibes. 3) Another thing that did not work in his favor is, and I loathe to say this to this day, but he got outplayed by Mike Vick. No rivalry anywhere, even outside of sports, quite measures up to the rivalry between New Orleans and Atlanta. You can do alot of things wrong down here but if you beat the Falcons, you will get cheered, and you can do a lot right but if you lose to the Falcons you'll get a lot of hate. And it definitely did not help matters that part of the pregame hype at the time would always be reminding us that Brooks and Vick were cousins. Did not help the inferiority complex I think fans had surrounding their image of Brooks vs Vick. Tbqh I don't think it truly dissipated until Brees truly destroyed Vick's mystique in 2006. And the last thing 4) He got shown up by Jake Delhomme. A local good ol boy made good. I have distinct vivid memories of the Dome erupting in chants of "We Want Jake!" And then the team let Delhomme go to Carolina and lead them to the Super Bowl. Brooks was dead in the water in the eyes of fans after that, he would never be forgiven during his career in New Orleans. And if you ask me, that's what actually happened. Brooks hit a ceiling, a ceiling that was not high enough for Saints fans seeing what Vick had done and what Delhomme was doing, and it just kind of broke the man's confidence. I don't think he was the same player after the behind the back drop and "We Want Jake". I do think there is a happy ending though. I know I am super nostalgic for this era and I think every Saints fan my age is, and Brooks was recently in the Dome for a Saints game and he got a huge standing ovation. To this day I do not hesitate to point out that statistically there is no question who the second best QB in Saints history is, and it's Aaron Brooks. If I ever got the chance to meet him today, I'd totally try to get an autograph and a picture, because despite it all, I do think he's a Saints legend.
Thank you so much for the comment. I really enjoyed reading it. I really like your last paragraph as I think that's cool you think Brooks is a Saints legend. I also think the paragraph you said about Brooks hitting a ceiling was interesting. But wow, a lot of information and like I said, I enjoyed reading your comment. Thanks for liking the video. I enjoyed making it and I was so happy to make a historical video for the great Saints fans. I miss that Saints - Rams rivalry.
I met Dutch like five times. The first time I met him he talked to me for 5 minutes I could not believe that this guy was talking to me for 5 minutes. And people were telling him come on we got to go and he kept talking to me. That right there made him my favorite because he wasn't my favorite at the time but he was after that. And all other four times I met him he was the same way he remembered me which is amazing he remembered what we were talking about. So I miss dutch so much. God called him home and I'm sure if heaven has a baseball team Dutch is catching for it. Lol. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks again for an awesome comment. I wish I could've met Dutch. It seemed like he was such a humble and down to earth person. Obviously, I have no idea as I have never met him but reading a comment like yours was an enjoyable read. Thanks again for your two comments as I really enjoyed reading them. Enjoy the rest of the MLB season.
Dude I'm a Philadelphia Phillies fan for over 40 years and I totally respect that. I would have not like Darren Dalton if I was you for doing that to my guy. Darren Dalton was funny he was caring he loved his teammates and I'm so happy that he was able to win a world series in the end. Because of one guy the Phillies could not get that accomplished with him. Carter single-handedly beat the Phillies in the world series The guy was untouchable. When Dutch passed away it ripped my heart out he was my favorite Phillies player at the time when he played now it's no secret JT is my favorite. It's not because I was a catcher playing baseball It's just it worked out that way I love JT just as much as I loved Dutch It's like watching Dutch all over again and I love it and I am so happy for my Phillies right now.
This was such a great comment. I really enjoyed reading it. When you said - "Darren Dalton was funny he was caring he loved his teammates" that was something that I did not understand at the time and later realized that he was the best. At the time I loved Sheffield, but Daulton wound up being one of my favorites. Thanks for watching the video and thanks for the comment.
The afc in 2004 and 2005 was very, very tough. In both years, every division had at least 2 teams with winning records. In 2005, the chiefs missed the playoffs despite a 10-6 record. The nfc? Very, very weak
If the 1989 bengals won at least some of their many close games, they'd probably be afc champions that year. Cincinnati swept cleveland and pittsburgh and blasted houston 61-7. Those 3 teams made the playoffs, and the bengals went 5-1 against them. They outscored their opponents 404-285. They finished....8-8?
I remember that 61-7 game. I loved the AFC Central back then. That Bengals point differential was incredible (most of it from that 61-7 game), but nonetheless, great comment. Thanks for bringing up that 1989 Bengals team. This was an awesome comment.
Can you please make a craig heyward video? Ironhead was a lot like means. He was actually bigger than natrone, and played a lot like him, with his bruising style. Sadly, he died of cancer before the age of 40. RIP
Thank you for all of your comments and thanks for watching so many of my videos. I actually wrote the Ironhead Heyward video last year but never got a chance to edit it. But for sure, I will have a Craig "Ironhead" Heyward video this fall. Ironhead was an NFL favorite for fans back then as I look forward to completing it. Thanks again for all of your great comments. I really appreciate it.
Before drew bledsoe came into the league, warren moon set the record for most pass attempts in 1 season. A lot of picks, but a lot of yards, and a lot of tds
Agreed. He was an awesome qb and always underated
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
That was an unbelievable shot Tony made. Because of the shot and the win many forgot about Pipens tantrum. He was a winning baby. Yes he was a great player but how much better could he have been with out his baggage !!
That shot was incredible to see. One of the most memorable NBA game winners for me. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
Congrats Boston Celtics
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
This is off topic, but that early 90s Nets jersey in the background of that Pippen card in the beginning has such a great logo and color scheme
I love the comment. I really liked those Nets jerseys. In truth, when I was looking at cards to pick out of Scottie Pippen, I liked this one the best because of Pippen dribbling assuming he's leading the fast break, but also because of Armen Gilliam in that Nets jersey. Thanks for liking the card. I'm glad you noticed. I actually did put thought into using that card and part of it was because of that Nets jersey. Thanks again.
Unfortunately this improbable ending with him pouting on the bench was the defining moment of Scottie Pippin’s Hall of Fame career
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
Welcome back 90s Sports Nostalgia
Thank you so much for your interest in this video. What are your thoughts about this game? Don't forget to subscribe and like the video.
The player i wanted the mets to trade for. Belle is the first player I've seen in my 55years that i would sign above all other hitters. Everyone today by comparison is pusillanimous
Trying to imagine Belle in a Mets uniform. That would be interesting. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
Dave Krieg and Neil Lomax were so criminally underrated. These QBs were tough as nails and great leaders. Dave Krieg to Steve Largent and Neil Lomax to Roy Green.
Neil Lomax, what a name. He was a little before my time but him and Warren Moon were the first two football cards I remember having. But I hear great things about Neil Lomax and enjoyed seeing some of his highlights. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
Matt McChesney sent me here 😎🔥💯
Thanks for watching the video and thanks for commenting. I can't remember but I saw Matt McChesney somewhere talking Colorado football. Matt still looks like he could still play. Thanks again.
@@90sSportsNostalgia no problem. I think you probably seen Matt on DNVR or The Coach JB Show. Matt also has his own podcast called Zero to Sixty . But imma make sure I'm subscribed and thanks for that gem about Joe Burrow's Brother 💯
Eddie Kennison jersey? Got my sub.
Thank you so much. I love that jersey and thanks for noticing it. I'm so mad at myself for selling many of my other 90s jerseys, but I'm so happy I still have that Kennison jersey. Lastly, thank you so much for subscribing. It means a lot to me and thanks for watching the video. Enjoy the upcoming NFL season.
An average at best player who is rightfully forgotten
Pitino was a a new yorker who also coached the knicks and it really makes his 'coming thru that door' speach' come off as whiny and unapprecitive of north eastern fan bases and their expexctations....not only to win but to give it your all. It also might not have donned on him that the booing was most likely for him as he'd been here for 3 years and the team was going backward..
Chris played AAU in high school and always looked for the best competition
Go tribe!!
My father said: "Jeff George could throw a football through a brick wall, but he was a terrible quarterback."
I've been pitching for this, and think it'd be great!
Dave Justice hr not even mentioned. Fail
Do you have the full game?
And You can see how crucial Pip was for that bulls team… great rivalry
I know june jones was a bad head coach, but he's a great qb coach. His run and shoot offense proved to be effective. He helped develop Hall of famer warren Moon and helped develop another pro bowl qb in chris Miller. In 1995, the Falcons had 3 receievers go over 1,000 yards, including a special teams returner
Thanks as always for your great comments. I have always been someone who's defended the run and shoot offense. I hope to do a video about that later on. Also, great extra information. June Jones with ATL and SD had his rough times in the NFL but I thought he did a really good job in college at Hawaii and turning around SMU. Thanks again for all of your support.
If not the greatest arm, surely one of them. And some, when they're running, you can see the power in their speed. Michael was one of those. Another K-Stater, David Allen, was also. Check out the vid, Special Teams U, on this site.
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video. Yeah, David Allen was an awesome returner but later I think he suffered an Achilles injury (I forgot when) and wasn't the same. I will check out that special Teams U. Thanks again.
George Seifert would be in the Hall of Fame today if he hadn't taken the head coaching job in Carolina. Seifert held the highest winning percentage of any coach in NFL history until he coached the Panthers. George Seifert's Carolina Panthers went down in history as one of the worst teams to ever play in the league....his time in Carolina ended what was to be a certain Hall of Fame induction.
Myself a Sox fan I did watch the cubs. That 90’s team had some of baseballs best players of the era. They should have won many more games and been in more post season games.
KJ and Kidd went to Cal in Berkeley - KJ from Sactown and Kidd was from East Bay (aka tha Yay) Area; and Nash went to Santa Clara. Those are fun facts that should be noted with this trio.
Thanks for adding that in. Great mention, that those 3 point guards played college ball in the Bay Area. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
Yooo this video was worth the wait. I'm not even a Cubs fan, and I wasn't really into baseball in the 90's (but "Go Giants!!!"). Yet I still found this retrospective informative, and fascinating. The 20 minutes flew by. You always tell these stories with the right amount of enthusiasm. Feels like a good friend that knows what they are talking about is educating me on sports topics from yesteryear. Thanks again for putting this together, and I'm already excited for whatever you have planned in the future. You're a rockstar. Cheers.
astrostar49, what's going on. After a long day of work, reading your comment made me feel blessed. Thank you so much. I'm very lucky to have your support for my channel. I will always remember your comment. I was starting to do a San Francisco Giants video in the '90s, but I don't think I will be able to get to it. I change ideas all the time and have a hard time sticking to one video idea at times. I have plans to do a Dodgers in the '90s video next month (because it was already written from last year). But we'll see. You're the best. I really appreciate everything. Thank you so much.
Love it man appreciate the new video. This was a longer one too!
Thank you so much. Always great to hear from you. Lately, I've been thinking that I should get back to doing more of these teams in the '90s videos. I just need to try to find more time. I hope next month I will be able to finish a Dodgers in the '90s video (I started it last year but now I think I have time to finish it). But thank you so much. Enjoy the upcoming summer.
I got that Diamondbacks hat @ 14:07 they wore at the time (1998) 👍🏾
I'm not one to give advice, but I would like to say, never get rid of that hat. I wish I never sold a lot of my 90s sports apparel. Keep that hat. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
@@90sSportsNostalgia Will do & you're welcome 👍🏾💯
Great video know you so hard to put it together appreciate your Channel 😂
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your comment. It made my day and feel truly blessed. Thanks again and enjoy the upcoming summer.
I’ve watched almost every Cubs-game I’ve been able to since I was 7 in 1977, and those 90’s & 2000’s teams were fun to watch and easy to connect with. The 2016 team was great, but I never felt as connected to the team as the Grace/Sandberg/Dawson team.
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching video. I think you made an interesting comment - "The 2016 team was great, but I never felt as connected to the team as the Grace/Sandberg/Dawson team". I say that because I wonder how many other Cubs fans feel the same way you do. I would be curious to know how many others feel the same way as you. Thanks again and enjoy the rest of the 2024 Cubs season.
Great video. As a teenager I attended a Cubs game at Wrigley Field in the summer of 1998. My program had a picture of Harry Carey on the front. They played the Pirates.
Thanks for the comment. I enjoyed reading it. That 1998 season was wild. Thanks again for the comment and thanks for watching the video.
As a cubs fan, I appreciate this video.
Thank you so much for your comment. It means a lot to me. I had a lot of enjoyment making this video. Enjoy the rest of the MLB season and enjoy watching Shōta Imanaga pitch. Thanks again.
I loved watching them on TV as a kid in the 90s.
Thank you so much for the comment. Coming home from school and being able to watch baseball during the day was the best. Moreover, during the summer days, watching the Cubs during the day sure beat watching soap operas. Thanks again. Enjoy the rest of the MLB season.
I was hoping to learn more about the Larry Himes transition.. Does anyone know why the White Sox let him go?
Thank you so much for the comment and taking the time for watching the video. I apologize for not going deeper into the Larry Himes transition. I did not expect a comment like yours but it was a great comment. So, I put a graphic up (maybe it wasn't up long enough as I'm not good determining how long a text graphic should be up to read), but anyways, that text graphic from the Chicago Tribune basically mentioned that Jerry Reinsdorf said Himes did a great job getting the team from Point A to Point B, but didn't think Himes was the guy to get them to Point C (a championship). Furthermore, there were reports of personality differences but in short, Himes was not a Reinsdorf guy. Thank you so much once again and enjoy the rest of the baseball season.
Thanks for the video 90s Sports Nostalgia ❤
Mandy, thank you so much for the recommendation. So sorry for the 2-month delay. I had a lot of fun doing this video. There is something so unique watching Cubs day games at Wrigley in the early '90s. Thank you so much. This video was completed because of you. Thanks again.
After 89 I think many of us Cub fans expected many more post season appearances. But that was life as a Cubs fan lol especially 91 cuz we were a favorite to over take the pirates just to not only fall short but not even get close lol. 93 and 95 were fun and of course 98. Cool video. Always fun to relive the past. If they get randy Johnson in 98 who knows what happens.
Big Pasty. What's going on? I understand how Cubs fans expected more postseason appearances after 1989. I don't know what to say. Your comment about 1991, sorry I missed that, I did not know the Cubs were division favorites that year. 1995, was certainly interesting and like you said "of course 98". I enjoyed doing this video because I found myself so relaxed just watching early 90s Cubs day games being played at Wrigley. I wound up watching some of those games and chilling instead of editing and working on the video. I'm not sure if I will do it this summer, but I want to do a video about the best team to not make the playoffs which would be the 2004 Cubs as there was so much craziness with that team. The Cubs in the mid-2000s had so much talent. Thank you so much. I'm glad you like the video. You're the best.
@@90sSportsNostalgia 2004 was beyond frustrating. I remember a baseball encyclopedia I owned as a teenager saying after the free agent moves the cubs made prior to 91 that along with their younger talent still there from 89, they were a favorite I'm the east. Of course as u covered, none of those moves panned out lol
