Vid to go along with the pic laramie posted. One of the most iconic moments in MMA history in my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi8_-xO9BH4
I was lucky enough to witness the Nolan Ryan beat down of Robin Ventura in person. I was probably only 7 or 8 when it happened, but it will forever live in my heart as one of the greatest sports moments I have ever seen in person. |

On December 31, 1967, Derek recruited his wife to operate one of his cameras after he had been commissioned by daredevil Evel Knievel to film his motorcycle jump of the fountains at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. It was Evans who captured the iconic images of Knievel's devastating crash as the jump failed

A photo of a dazed Tittle in the endzone taken by Morris Berman of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on September 20, 1964, is regarded among the most iconic images in the history of sports. Tittle, who was in the final season of his career, was photographed helmet-less, bloodied and kneeling immediately after having been knocked to the ground by John Baker of the Pittsburgh Steelers and throwing an interception that was returned for a touchdown at the old Pitt Stadium. The quarterback suffered both a concussion and cracked sternum on the play. He would go on to play out the rest of the season, but the Giants would finish a disappointing 2-10-2.[citation needed] Post-Gazette editors at first declined to run the photo, looking for "action shots" instead, but Berman entered the image into contests where it took on a life of its own, winning a National Headliner Award. The photo was ineligible for a Pulitzer Prize because it was not published, but it is regarded as having changed the way that photographers look at sports, having shown the power of capturing a moment of reaction. It now hangs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.[citation needed] After at first having failed to see the appeal of the image, Tittle eventually would grow to embrace it, putting it on the back cover of his 2009 autobiography. "That was the end of the road," he told the Los Angeles Times in 2008. "It was the end of my dream. It was over."[citation needed] Tittle and Berman weren't the only ones to profit from the famous image, Pittsburgh player John Baker (who hit Tittle right before the picture was taken) ran for Sheriff in his native Wake County, North Carolina, in 1978 and used the photo as a campaign tool. Baker went on to serve for 25 years.[3] The photo was identified so heavily with youthful years of the baby boom generation that Miller Beer used it in an iconic ad relaunching its "Miller High Life" brand in 2007-2008. There is a large painting of this image at the National Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH. I went into the gift shop and tried to buy a print of poster of it, but the Pittsburgh Gazette never sold it. Even when the Gazette closed and sold its archives to whatever the daily Pittsburgh paper is now, the image has never been offered. |

MAybe in the book about him his daughter wrote (got that for my Dad several Xmases agao) or an NPR interview with him about the book. Details are lost, but I remember there was something. |

Oh shit, you found a picture of me! (I'm the one kinda to the left in that khaki patch.) Nope, it is a pic of me. I am in the second deck towards the right side about two sections from the edge. I was really surprised by the speed that was organized. They sold a ton of shirts for charity. |
