Of all the "exciting" plays in all of sports, homeruns have to be the most boring. They are all the same, a ball going out, unless it flys way out of the stadium or like 500 feet or off a guys head, homeruns are all the same.
Hockey/soccer goals are always different, basketball dunks are different, football TD's are always different......not a big deal, but I could watch hours and hours of soccer and hockey goals, but couldnt watch more than a minute of damn home runs. On Best Damn 50 most amazing plays, there was a bunch of HR and it pissed me off.....those aren't amazing plays, I understand the history of it and the timing of the hit, but come on, if you're making a list of "amazing plays", give us stuff that is truly amazing and this Canseco Boink HR was amazing, that should be on the list instead of that damn kirk gibson HR, that's always in the top 10, big deal, it was GAME 1 of the series and its always ahead of Joe carters.....never makes sense to me.
