Boy Meets Sports: 90's Edition

The 90's were a special time in our country's history.  The economy was good, the music was transforming, but most importantly, the sports were historic.  This post is inspired by "90's Saturday", which was created today at my work to give our thanks to the beautiful decade known as the 90's.  Disney Channel original movies like "Brink" and "Johnny Tsunami" were big, The Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC were on our radios, and our ball caps were turned backwards. The 90's consisted of so much more, though.  From The Buffalo Bills' four Super Bowl appearances to witnessing the greatest basketball player to touch the earth, the 90's were filled with awesome athletes and awesome moments.

5. Sosa and McGwire Make History

PED's or not, the home run race of the 90's took the sports world by storm.  Be forever grateful for Mcgwire and Sosa.  They changed the game forever.

4. The Detroit Bad Boys

It was Jordan vs. The Bad Boys.  Jordan's rivals came and went, but the bad boys were the baddest.

3. Steve Young and Joe Montana

Joe Montana was first, but then came Steve Young.  The 49'rs transition from one quarterback to the other may be similar the Colts transition from Manning to Luck.  How LUCKy can you be? 

2. The Class of 1996

Ray Lewis, Derek Jeter, Kobe Bryant, and Tiger Woods.  Greatest class of all time? I'd vote for them.  The class of 1996 definitely had the "eye of the Tiger".  No pun intended.

1.  Michael Jordan

Enough Said.
