All my "wish I had been there" sporting moments involve teams that I support and love.
2000-Portugal vs England, opening round, Euro 2000. Portugal down 2-0 after twenty minutes. Figo with an amazing blast from 35 yards to get them back in. Joao Pinto tied it before half. Nuno Gomes wins it late.
Euro 2004 was my favorite all time event. Showcased how beautiful Portugal is and had my team make a run to the final. Still can't believe they lost to Greece though. That one stings as much as Flames 2004.
2004-Portugal v England, in Portugal at Euro 2004 at Estadio da Luz. Qtr Final, Portugal win on penalties after an epic 120 minutes that ended 2-2.
2004-Portugal v Holland, Euro 2004 Semi Final, Maniche with my all time favorite goal
Flames Run of 2004
My favorite game in terms of entertainment was Game one vs San Jose. Just back and forth action and an awesome winner by Montador.
Game 7 vs Vancouver for obvious reasons
Flames 89
Would have love to have been in Montreal for the celebration
Wimbledon 2001
Goran Ivaniesevic(my all time favorite player) vs Patrick Rafter in a 5 set marathon, ending 9-7 in the fifth.
