    I'm not sure if this is going to be a poll but here are some I can think of (most of them need only one name):

    - Renfro
    - Pujols
    - Buffalo
    - Lorenzo Charles
    - Stockton

    Those are the ones I can quickly come up with.

    Not sure why NLCS Game 5 belongs; all that did was delay history one more game. Didn't change the course of a season or franchise.

    For me, it's Barkley's injury, Stockton's three, Yao's injury, Oilers/Bills, and Kevin Brown. I'm not sure on the order, but those are the ones I think of immediately.

    i'm down about today...but it's nowhere near the ones listed, above. we're still in the regular season playing for positioning. those moments were final and awful.

    I don't know, but J.R. Richard's stroke has to be somewhere on that list.

    No contest,
    All Oilers

    Do the Rockets have a reputation as chokers then the owner/team leaves the city? Yao with an injury, ranks very low.

    For Rockets history, this is bad, but pray it doesn't turn into Ralph Sampson-ish injury.
