“When you die it does not mean that you lose to cancer, you beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the matter of which you live,” made me cry on the spot
I think cancer has touched/fucked almost everyone at one point or another in some way shape or form so i hope everyone that has felt any kind of pain from this awful disease is ok and i hope my positive vibes and goodwill reach you somehow...
Background context for each clip: 0:15: Kevin Durant grew up a very poor kid in Washington D.C. and when he won the MVP award in 2014, he thanked his mom in a heartfelt tribute. 3:05: Marquise Goodwin's newborn son died before his game and when he scored a long touchdown, he dedicated it to him. 3:31: Eagles player Jerome Brown died in a car crash and that day, his teammate and friend Reggie White was supposed to give a speech at a Billy Graham Crusade and he was told about Brown's death moments before he took the stage. 4:47: Jose Fernandez, a young pitcher who had shown much promise, died in a boat accident in 2016. The Marlins cancelled their game that day. The next day, they played with Fernandez's name and number on the jersey, in tribute. Dee Gordon, his good friend, hit a leadoff homer, his first of the year, and dedicated it to him. 6:23: Derrick Rose, the reigning NBA MVP and one of the league's best young stars, tore his ACL and MCL in a play that didn't really matter. The Bulls had already won and he didn't need to be on the court. Rose was a fan favorite, being a hometown hero and a very lovable player. He hasn't been able to produce the same production since. 7:23: When the September 11th attacks happened in 2001, the MLB naturally closed for about 2 weeks. When they finally came back, in the first game in New York since the attacks, Mike Piazza of the Mets hits a go ahead home run in the 8th inning. It is a very powerful moment, giving New Yorkers something to be happy about for the first time in weeks. 8:27: Isaiah Thomas was an Allstar and fan favorite in Boston before they traded him to Cleveland. After the trade he was never quite the same player. When he finally returned to Boston, the Celtics gave him a fitting tribute. In that tribute, they show a clip of him crying on the bench just after he learned that his sister had died in a car crash at the age of 21. 9:55: Michael Jordan wins his first championship since his father was murdered and is very emotional, as he never did anything without his father's support. 10:27: Kobe Bryant, an NBA Legend, died in a helicopter crash in January 2020. His good friend and mentor Michael Jordan gives a heartfelt speech about his great friend. 11:39: Teddy Bridgewater plays his first game in nearly two years due to injury. 12:36: In April 2013, the Boston Marathon was bombed, killing many. When the Boston Bruins played their first home game since, the Boston fans sang the national anthem all together as a sign of unity. 15:05: Sean Taylor, an All-Pro safety for the Washington Redskins, was murdered. The Redskins took the field with only 10 people, 1 less than usual, as a tribute to Taylor. 15:34: Nebraska Punter Sam Foltz was killed in a car accident and, similar to Taylor, Nebraska lined up with only 10 men on the field, with no punter. 16:49: Derek Jeter, lifelong Yankee and fan favorite, was retiring in 2014 and in his final game at Yankee Stadium, Jeter hit a game winning single. 18:09: Pretty self explanatory. 19:14: Also pretty self explanatory except that Scott died about six months after receiving this award. 23:07: First one I actually had to look up. Craig Anderson's wife Nicole was diagnosed with cancer and after taking a week off, Anderson returned with a shutout. 24:00: Reggie Lewis, an Allstar for the Boston Celtics, collapsed with a heart ailment during a playoff game and was told he should never play basketball again. He died the following year after shooting baskets at his house and his heart failing. I actually don't know the last one. Anyone wanna help me out?
I know this is late and you might’ve figured out already but the last clip was about Junior Seau and his death. The women crying was I believe his grandmother who has heartbroken after hearing he died at such a young age.
Reggie Lewis received two opinions from two different hospitals. One opinion said he could play. So in the summer of 1993, he was shooting hoops at Brandeis University, collapsed and died. He had a massive heart condition with arrhythmia. Horribly sad, seemed like a real class act.

2:40 You da real MVP 3:12 'Goodwin revealed that he and his wife had lost their prematurely born son due to complications during pregnancy in the early morning hours the day of the game.' 3:32 Reggie White, who used his football career to spread the gospel, announces Jerome Brown's, his teammate, death. Reggie died just 12 years later from a cardiac arrhythmia at the age of 43. 5:10 Dee Gordon honors former teammate José Fernández, who had died the morning before, with a solo home run. 6:21 Derrick Rose tears his ACL at the end of Game 1 of the 2012 playoffs. This ultimately ended his career with the bulls but set Rose on a path to be one of the greatest comeback stories in sports. 7:23 Mike Piazza scores game winning homerun for the New York Mets in first sporting event after 9/11. 8:32 Isaiah Thomas, the former two-time All-Star, was on the receiving end of a video tribute that drew thunderous applause from the Celtics fan base, showering Thomas with the kind adoration fitting his contributions to the franchise in his two-plus seasons. 10:00 Michael Jordan cries on locker room floor after winning '96 title on Father's day, 3 years after his father, James Jordan, was killed while sleeping in his car on a highway in Lumberton, North Carolina. 10:26 Michael honors Mamba. RIP Kobe Bryant 11:39 Vikings quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater, returns for first time since suffering horrific leg injury 15 months prior. 12:32 The city of Boston delivers powerful National Anthem at the Bruins game, just two days after the Boston Marathon Bombings. 15:00 Washington leaves a safety position open in honor of their slain teammate Sean Taylor who was shot in the upper thigh five days prior. 15:30 Nebraska honors former teammate (punter) Sam Foltz. Sam was a preseason candidate for the Ray Guy Award and was expected to be one of the nation's top punters in 2016 before he tragically lost his life in an automobile accident on July 23, 2016.

Steward Scott was so inspirational. How him who had cancer just never gave up and just made the most out of his life. And how even in the most difficult situations you should never give up
That's why Philly fans are the best in the world. We may treat other teams' fans like shit, but if you play for us-- you're family. We can love ya or hate ya, but you're family and we'll treat you as such.

I cried when Stuart Scott died, as someone who grew up in Carolina, being a fan, knowing him as an alumni there, and as a sports fan in general it hit hard when died, and seeing that clip of him, brought every bit of that motion back... so thanks for making me cry again damnit
When people say “I don’t believe in god” I show them that video of Dee Gordon taking the first pitch and then switching his batt to Jose’s and launching a bomb. Gets me every time.
Bro when they were singing the national anthem in the nhl clip I had chills down my whole body when they hit "And the rockets red glare the bomb's bursting in air" what a great national anthem
@Papillomas Binturong bro . you dont get it . I am not American . And i dont stay there . So all i get to see are what i see on the news and online . With most of what i see , i am flabbergasted with the way some of the American left just blindly oppose everything that opposes their views . Astounded to be frank. You said being American . Like you just said , being American is an identity . All i see from the outside is it being eroded
Also i cannot for the life of me , understand why the left in your country opposes checks on immigration when it is illegal . Illegal Immigration . Hello ? Code word : Illegal . I am someone who wants to be an immigrant in your country . But i want to do it the right way . Dont you guys want to protect the interests of your fellow countrymen ?
When I was young I always looked up to Kobe. He motivated me to grind everyday and to get better at basketball. But not just basketball. He taught me to be respectful on and off the court. I kept grinding and grinding but I just felt like I wasn’t getting any better. I was starting to get depressed and thought I would never be good at anything. But I kept watching Kobe’s games, and I noticed that I wasn’t doing things right. I started playing for 6 hours a day, and I saw some change. I was getting better and better. Then I joined a team. I wasn’t the best but I was ok. My team was great, they had great shooters, playmakers, everything you could ask for. I didn’t stop grinding until I was satisfied with my work. My coach was amazing. He taught me skills that not even an NBA player would have. Then one day, my best friend was diagnosed with cancer. I couldn’t believe it. And i was just starting to get good at basketball. But my friend is more important. I quit basketball to take care of my friend. Luckily, he survived it but I had no hope. Now I was worried about basketball. I don’t know if I should join a team or not because it has been months since I played. Then I remembered what Kobe taught me. I grinded for days, weeks, months. I went back on the team and was terrible. I was averaging about 6 points per game with 25 minutes in the game. I couldn’t believe it. I started getting better on defense. I focused on that for a while and then I focused on ball handling. I became a great dribbler. Now I was ready. My 4th game I dropped 17 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. I felt great. The next game I dropped 23 points with 6 rebounds and 5 assists. I just kept getting better and better and here I am today averaging 27 points per game. Thank you Mamba🙏💜💛
Say what you will about KD, but that MVP speech is probably one of the best speeches in sports that has ever happened. I get tears in my eyes as soon as it starts every time.
As someone who lost their best friend to Cancer at 23, that Stuart Scott speech hits hard as hell. I can't watch it without balling my eyes out because I saw first hand what Cancer patients have to go through.
To quote Rocky Balboa: It doesn't matter how hard you hit; it matters how you can GET hit and keep going, how much you can TAKE and keep going. THAT'S HOW WINNING IS DONE!
"When Kobe died, a piece of me died. And a piece of all of you died, or you wouldn't be here today." -MJ Spoken with such simple and heartfelt words, yet it hugely impactful. Not just because it was Kobe Bryant, but because he put it into the context of valuing the time we have on earth, and with each other. We form bonds and connections that hurt when they are broken, but cherished when remembered. We can't allow pettiness, or the politics of something like COVID keep us from loving one another.
Since I have followed sport especially in the US and back here in Aus. I don’t think anything hit harder to me when I heard Kobe died. I grew up hating him not as a person but just the player because he was in a lakers jersey and I’m a die hard Celtics fan. But growing up witnessing greatness on my TV screen and just watching him dominate all the way until his last years in the NBA just hurt. Honestly I actually have never cried so much, cried for the whole day. He touched so many people with his game and not only that, it was also how he brought up his family. Gone but will never ever be forgotten. RIP Mamba
The National Anthem a couple of days after the terrorist bombed the Boston Marathon pulls at your heart strings. I had tickets to that game, but my daughter didn't want to go. Gave the tickets to my parents and brother. They said that moment was spine tingling.
Being from Boston, moments like the marathon bombing were reminders that we are all Americans at the end of the day and we put our differences aside. As soon as the crowd started singing, I had immediate goosebumps.
@@c.3514 If you need to ask. If only we could pull together for all lives like they have in this video. My friend got the crap beat out of him just because he dare say ALL LIVES MATTER. In this video I see African-American men crying for a white friend. That my friend is what I'm talking about.
That isn't the point of the BLM movement. Yes, all lives matter. Everyone knows this. But Black lives need help. They need allies. The United states have kept black lives in the margins and treated as inferiors. Black lives matter.
I was 16 and a huge Bulls fan when Jordan and the Bulls beat Seattle in 6 to win the championship. I think everyone who was watching, Bulls and Sonic fans, were crying when we saw him collapsed on the floor of the locker room clutching that ball. He had just lost his dad months earlier and it was a bittersweet victory for him. He will always be the GOAT. It was a true pleasure to witness his career.
That Derrick Rose one always tears me up. The biggest what "if" ever to step on the court. However his story is still incredible and something i look at when im hit with adversity. The guy is tough as nails and never gave up even with all his injuries.
Great speech and great mom. I lost my mom last year and everything he said rings true in my family also. My mom would scrape together what she could for my brother and sister to eat and have as normal of a life as possible. All loving caring moms deserve an MVP
4:50 Colon definitely threw him that right down the middle 😂 didn't even turn to look to see if it was outta there, just knew he smacked the shit out of it 😂😂😂
I don't care if it's in batting practice, hitting a home run on the spot like that, ESPECIALLY for a guy that is far from a HR hitter, was incredible. Don't take away from the moment
19:10 -- if you can take anything away from this video...take the time to take this. And if you have kids....pass this along to them. Sorry.... 19:10 - 22:50 -- THIS....this right here is so moving...so powerful. WOW
The V cancer speech hit me right in the gut. I lost my mom to cancer a year and a half ago. She went out her own way, choosing to sign up for hospice care. The thought of going through all the chemo and other measures was just too much for her, and she knew it. I'll see her again, the way I remember her before cancer turned her into a paraplegic, and then took her life.
I listen to that arena sing the Anthem.. and it just reminds me.. one country, indivisible. so love to everyone. No matter what side you cheer for or who you voted for.
When a great like Michael Jordan is in tears and is talking about the loss of a "brother" like Kobe Bryant....Makes you realize how much Michael really cared. Most people think he's a pure asshole, but damn does he have a good reason to be. To have a winning mentality all your life, that gets to you. He never glorified no man because he would always think "Im better than them." And for him to mention Kobe as his brother, that hits you. R.I.P Kobe the great one!
Something to add and I'm surprised not a lot of these compilation videos ever mention it but; November 14th, 1970. What happened on that day? That tragic day was the plane crash of Southern Airways Flight 932. On that plane, carried the whole football team of Marshall University Thundering Herd, their staff/administrators and other personnel on board. Nobody survived that crash. But man, a whole football team and staff - just gone like that.
nnjjiiu After the 9/11 attacks, no baseball or any sport was played for over a week. Finally, they came back and brought normalcy. The Mets had been scheduled to play a home game on September 11th, so it was them (and not my beloved Yankees) who restarted baseball in New York. Many of the families of the victims attended the game and were honored by the team and fans. The Mets trailed late, with their best player, Mike Piazza, due up. He hit a game-winning HR and the fans went crazy. I grew up in NY hating the Mets. I’ve never been happier to see a non-Yankee home run in my life.
So this is the first video of yours I’ve ever seen. I thought it was super beautiful. Only two things I’d like to say as a new fans input. Text boxes explaining what happened or a voice over are always nice because some people may not know why these moments are sad. Second is I’m shocked the wwe ring announcer singing the National anthem right after 9/11 wasn’t on here that one always gives me chills. Super great vid and I am now a sub :)
10:05 MJ uncontrollably weeping on the locker room floor absolutely crushed me. I had never seen that footage, but I know when it happened 😢 Then his future Kobe speech, I am out of tears... that man has been through so much heartbreak.
Being a bruins fan and witnessing that national anthem moment made me tear up. Seeing again right now is making me extremely emotional. That’s probably the most together I’ve ever seen the city of Boston be
When Reggie White announced Jerome Browns death it hit me so hard. I wasn't alive when it happened, but just hearing everyone gasp in shock at the news and Reggie breaking down because he lost his friend hit so sad.
Reading the comments - I'd say your video is a winner, created alot of emotion, myself included. Interesting to see which videos hit people more/differently for various reasons. For me - the basketball player unable to continue the interview after the young girl passed away was most emotional - having a young daughter myself, I couldn't imagine losing her and seeing such a young person struggle and fight each day 😥
That one hit hard. Her name was Miyah. She was a cancer patient who befriend the basketball player (John Wall) They got super close to each until she lost the fight to cancer. As you could tell they were extremely close. Appreciate you leaving that comment;)
One thing you should have had was when the Yankees played their first game after their captain Thurman Munson died in a plane crash. The Yanks took the field without a catcher in his honor, and the fans gave an ovation of almost 15 minutes as fans, Yankees, staff, etc all cried.
The Isaiah Thomas one is heartbreaking when you look back at the thing in its entirety. Struggling through his first few seasons in Sacramento, Thomas finally got a break when he made it into Boston. The dude found his place and alongside players like Smart and Crowder, brought the Celtics back into the conversation of good Eastern Conference teams and a legit contender against James and the Cavs. Then Thomas' sister dies and in Game 2, he breaks his hip and is forced to watch as his team gets wiped out. He's then traded to the Cavs, who didn't know how to use him, then traded to the Lakers, where he struggled to fit in with their style of play, resulting in some bad games and people in the RUclips comments I saw calling him trash and how he sucks. Thomas got dealt a major bad hand that he never has seemed to recover from...
I wish they'd kept in the part on the Nebraska punter's passing where Fresno State refused the delay of game penalty out of respect for what Nebraska was doing. That just made the moment more poignant.
10:20 I admit. Its such a huge impact back the day when athletes got emotional, no body picked up their phones to record, no one started a hashtag, where the moment an athlete's persona dropped, people attempted to block out the media to give them their moments just for some to sneak a 'money shot' in to sell. Where its not I'm saying there aren't current emotional moments that don't have huge impacts, its just at the time, it just hit so much harder because the professionalism and competitive nature of everyone, you had to stay on guard more often than now.
Bro when they were singing the national anthem in the nhl clip I had chills down my whole body when they hit "And the rockets red glare the bomb's bursting in air" what a great national anthem
If you weren’t there or watching live you’ll likely never understand what that moment meant to us the fans. Bridgewater was largely seen as the next franchise QB by many Vikings fans, myself included. Even thought it was a week 15 blowout game, when he donned the purple and gold and took the field for that one last time, it was truly emotional, it was spectacular, it was heartwarming, every bit of it. From finding out he was close to death, to seeing him take snaps again… As a Vikings fan I have no shame in admitting I was quite teary eyed when Zimmer called him into that game. We all knew he was free agent after that season and knew he’d be gone. Here’s to you Teddy. Still one of my favorite Vikings QBs ever.
Absolutely beautiful, and had me crying probably 5 separate times (Dee Gordon, Kobe, the Anthem, John Wall, Stuart Scott). Just 2 things that I would change. One, while the music was wonderful, it could have been a little quieter. There were times where it completely overwhelmed speeches. Two, some context. I knew most of them, but ones like the hockey shutout baffled me. Also I have no idea who that woman was at the end or who her son was.
13:30-14:30 Proof - if proof were needed - that if you let the people sing their great anthem for themselves, their passion and love for their country will shine through on its own. There is ABSOLUTELY no need for an AGT (or in our case BGT) or "Voice" wannabe to destroy it! LET THE PEOPLE SING!
Thank you for this video. I'm not sure if the national anthem will ever be given the respect it deserves again. At least not until this nonsense around the country ends.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame speech of Shannon Sharpe made me shed tears, talking about his grandmother. He asked her, when he signed his first pro contract with the Denver Broncos, "What do you want me to buy you, grandmother?" All she said she wanted was not to get wet when it rained, as the house they lived in had a leaky roof and they could never afford to get it fixed. He also said some poignant words about his brother, Sterling, whose NFL career was cut short. He told the crowd at the ceremony that he is the 200-something member of the HoF, but he is the second best football player in his family. He called Sterling the best football player out of the two. Sterling, among the standing ovation, watched, and tears flowed from his eyes. A very beautiful, yet emotional HoF speech!

‘You the real mvp’ one by Kevin Durant hit hard
Real mvp for finding them genes that made him 7' tall and coordinated.
Thanks, I did not know who he was!
The title should be “prepare to cry for 24 minutes straight”
It was good but his mom didnt go to bed hungry..no woman does not in today's society food stamps food bank etc
but durant was around the age of 24 and he was a kid in the 90s to 2000s
“When you die it does not mean that you lose to cancer, you beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the matter of which you live,”
made me cry on the spot
It was like he knew what was coming, but still having the courage and strength to carry on is incredibly inspiring.
I grew up watching Stuart Scott on sports center when they all first started. I genuinely bawled my eyes out when he passed away.
the end of that speech made me pause the video and literally just think that was so powerful
I think cancer has touched/fucked almost everyone at one point or another in some way shape or form so i hope everyone that has felt any kind of pain from this awful disease is ok and i hope my positive vibes and goodwill reach you somehow...
When you die, the cancer dies with you so it’s really a draw

Steward Scott was so inspirational. How him who had cancer just never gave up and just made the most out of his life. And how even in the most difficult situations you should never give up
Seeing Reggie telling Philadelphia that Jerome completed his earthly journey....hurt then hurts now....and always will hurt for me
That's why Philly fans are the best in the world. We may treat other teams' fans like shit, but if you play for us-- you're family. We can love ya or hate ya, but you're family and we'll treat you as such.

When I was young I always looked up to Kobe. He motivated me to grind everyday and to get better at basketball. But not just basketball. He taught me to be respectful on and off the court. I kept grinding and grinding but I just felt like I wasn’t getting any better. I was starting to get depressed and thought I would never be good at anything. But I kept watching Kobe’s games, and I noticed that I wasn’t doing things right. I started playing for 6 hours a day, and I saw some change. I was getting better and better. Then I joined a team. I wasn’t the best but I was ok. My team was great, they had great shooters, playmakers, everything you could ask for. I didn’t stop grinding until I was satisfied with my work. My coach was amazing. He taught me skills that not even an NBA player would have. Then one day, my best friend was diagnosed with cancer. I couldn’t believe it. And i was just starting to get good at basketball. But my friend is more important. I quit basketball to take care of my friend. Luckily, he survived it but I had no hope. Now I was worried about basketball. I don’t know if I should join a team or not because it has been months since I played. Then I remembered what Kobe taught me. I grinded for days, weeks, months. I went back on the team and was terrible. I was averaging about 6 points per game with 25 minutes in the game. I couldn’t believe it. I started getting better on defense. I focused on that for a while and then I focused on ball handling. I became a great dribbler. Now I was ready. My 4th game I dropped 17 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. I felt great. The next game I dropped 23 points with 6 rebounds and 5 assists. I just kept getting better and better and here I am today averaging 27 points per game. Thank you Mamba🙏💜💛
Glad to hear that, much love ❤️
I really looked up to Kobe. my nickname was actually Kobe by my friends. He is one of the reasons I love basketball so much 🙏💜💛
Vixon Elite 😢
Kobe inspired us all

Say what you will about KD, but that MVP speech is probably one of the best speeches in sports that has ever happened. I get tears in my eyes as soon as it starts every time.
4 years have passed, but that José Fernandez one still hits hard.
As someone who lost their best friend to Cancer at 23, that Stuart Scott speech hits hard as hell. I can't watch it without balling my eyes out because I saw first hand what Cancer patients have to go through.
That Stu Scott speech was amazing. As I deal with Testicular cancer. Shit hits hard.
Sorry about your diagnosis! We can battle together man🙏 Hang in there
I hope that you are able to beat it and get back to the great life you deserve!
To quote Rocky Balboa: It doesn't matter how hard you hit; it matters how you can GET hit and keep going, how much you can TAKE and keep going. THAT'S HOW WINNING IS DONE!

Keep up the fight. You got this my dude!
"When Kobe died, a piece of me died. And a piece of all of you died, or you wouldn't be here today." -MJ
Spoken with such simple and heartfelt words, yet it hugely impactful. Not just because it was Kobe Bryant, but because he put it into the context of valuing the time we have on earth, and with each other. We form bonds and connections that hurt when they are broken, but cherished when remembered. We can't allow pettiness, or the politics of something like COVID keep us from loving one another.
I felt the nebraska one, my best friend on the football team killed himself and it still makes me sad to think anout
hey man sorry for your loss, breaks my heart to hear that
Since I have followed sport especially in the US and back here in Aus. I don’t think anything hit harder to me when I heard Kobe died. I grew up hating him not as a person but just the player because he was in a lakers jersey and I’m a die hard Celtics fan. But growing up witnessing greatness on my TV screen and just watching him dominate all the way until his last years in the NBA just hurt. Honestly I actually have never cried so much, cried for the whole day. He touched so many people with his game and not only that, it was also how he brought up his family. Gone but will never ever be forgotten. RIP Mamba
The National Anthem a couple of days after the terrorist bombed the Boston Marathon pulls at your heart strings. I had tickets to that game, but my daughter didn't want to go. Gave the tickets to my parents and brother. They said that moment was spine tingling.
Being from Boston, moments like the marathon bombing were reminders that we are all Americans at the end of the day and we put our differences aside. As soon as the crowd started singing, I had immediate goosebumps.
“You the real mvp”

that quote made me ball out man and I haven't cried in a while. It just hits too close and how much our parents gave up for us.
That isn't the point of the BLM movement. Yes, all lives matter. Everyone knows this. But Black lives need help. They need allies. The United states have kept black lives in the margins and treated as inferiors. Black lives matter.
I was 16 and a huge Bulls fan when Jordan and the Bulls beat Seattle in 6 to win the championship. I think everyone who was watching, Bulls and Sonic fans, were crying when we saw him collapsed on the floor of the locker room clutching that ball. He had just lost his dad months earlier and it was a bittersweet victory for him. He will always be the GOAT. It was a true pleasure to witness his career.

Music and sport. The two things that I absolutely love seeing people come together for ❤

The V cancer speech hit me right in the gut. I lost my mom to cancer a year and a half ago. She went out her own way, choosing to sign up for hospice care. The thought of going through all the chemo and other measures was just too much for her, and she knew it. I'll see her again, the way I remember her before cancer turned her into a paraplegic, and then took her life.
Sorry to hear that man ❤️
Sorry for your loss. I hope your staying strong and making her proud!
I listen to that arena sing the Anthem.. and it just reminds me.. one country, indivisible. so love to everyone. No matter what side you cheer for or who you voted for.
That John wall clip gets me every time. 6 years old man. I hope one day to know why life has to be so unfair at times.
When a great like Michael Jordan is in tears and is talking about the loss of a "brother" like Kobe Bryant....Makes you realize how much Michael really cared. Most people think he's a pure asshole, but damn does he have a good reason to be. To have a winning mentality all your life, that gets to you. He never glorified no man because he would always think "Im better than them." And for him to mention Kobe as his brother, that hits you. R.I.P Kobe the great one!
These moments are incredibly powerful, wow. Stuart Scott's and Kevin Durant's speeches are so meaningful! I'm still crying.
Something to add and I'm surprised not a lot of these compilation videos ever mention it but; November 14th, 1970. What happened on that day?
That tragic day was the plane crash of Southern Airways Flight 932. On that plane, carried the whole football team of Marshall University Thundering Herd, their staff/administrators and other personnel on board. Nobody survived that crash.
But man, a whole football team and staff - just gone like that.
Having the entire crowd do the national anthem is really rare, it gave me chills not gonna lie.
I’m a huge Braves fan, but Piazza’s home run needed to happen.

@@nnjjiiu He homered right after 9/11
nnjjiiu After the 9/11 attacks, no baseball or any sport was played for over a week. Finally, they came back and brought normalcy. The Mets had been scheduled to play a home game on September 11th, so it was them (and not my beloved Yankees) who restarted baseball in New York.
Many of the families of the victims attended the game and were honored by the team and fans. The Mets trailed late, with their best player, Mike Piazza, due up. He hit a game-winning HR and the fans went crazy. I grew up in NY hating the Mets. I’ve never been happier to see a non-Yankee home run in my life.
Great content throughout . Great work ! 15:32 gave me chills .

So this is the first video of yours I’ve ever seen. I thought it was super beautiful. Only two things I’d like to say as a new fans input. Text boxes explaining what happened or a voice over are always nice because some people may not know why these moments are sad.

The Jerome Brown one gave me chills
I’m an Eagles fan and it just felt different for me
Reading the comments - I'd say your video is a winner, created alot of emotion, myself included. Interesting to see which videos hit people more/differently for various reasons.
For me - the basketball player unable to continue the interview after the young girl passed away was most emotional - having a young daughter myself, I couldn't imagine losing her and seeing such a young person struggle and fight each day 😥
That one hit hard. Her name was Miyah. She was a cancer patient who befriend the basketball player (John Wall) They got super close to each until she lost the fight to cancer. As you could tell they were extremely close. Appreciate you leaving that comment;)

One thing you should have had was when the Yankees played their first game after their captain Thurman Munson died in a plane crash. The Yanks took the field without a catcher in his honor, and the fans gave an ovation of almost 15 minutes as fans, Yankees, staff, etc all cried.
The Isaiah Thomas one is heartbreaking when you look back at the thing in its entirety.
Struggling through his first few seasons in Sacramento, Thomas finally got a break when he made it into Boston. The dude found his place and alongside players like Smart and Crowder, brought the Celtics back into the conversation of good Eastern Conference teams and a legit contender against James and the Cavs. Then Thomas' sister dies and in Game 2, he breaks his hip and is forced to watch as his team gets wiped out.
He's then traded to the Cavs, who didn't know how to use him, then traded to the Lakers, where he struggled to fit in with their style of play, resulting in some bad games and people in the RUclips comments I saw calling him trash and how he sucks.
Thomas got dealt a major bad hand that he never has seemed to recover from...
I wish they'd kept in the part on the Nebraska punter's passing where Fresno State refused the delay of game penalty out of respect for what Nebraska was doing. That just made the moment more poignant.
Thankyou for putting the IT tribute video🙌from a Celtics fan
3:59 the crowd gasp just hurts...
10:20 I admit. Its such a huge impact back the day when athletes got emotional, no body picked up their phones to record, no one started a hashtag, where the moment an athlete's persona dropped, people attempted to block out the media to give them their moments just for some to sneak a 'money shot' in to sell. Where its not I'm saying there aren't current emotional moments that don't have huge impacts, its just at the time, it just hit so much harder because the professionalism and competitive nature of everyone, you had to stay on guard more often than now.
It’s the worst when you need to speak but your emotions just won’t let you mutter a word

Dam bro that KD one hit 😭😭 shouts out to all the moms out there!
If you weren’t there or watching live you’ll likely never understand what that moment meant to us the fans. Bridgewater was largely seen as the next franchise QB by many Vikings fans, myself included. Even thought it was a week 15 blowout game, when he donned the purple and gold and took the field for that one last time, it was truly emotional, it was spectacular, it was heartwarming, every bit of it. From finding out he was close to death, to seeing him take snaps again… As a Vikings fan I have no shame in admitting I was quite teary eyed when Zimmer called him into that game. We all knew he was free agent after that season and knew he’d be gone. Here’s to you Teddy. Still one of my favorite Vikings QBs ever.
Absolutely beautiful, and had me crying probably 5 separate times (Dee Gordon, Kobe, the Anthem, John Wall, Stuart Scott).
Just 2 things that I would change. One, while the music was wonderful, it could have been a little quieter. There were times where it completely overwhelmed speeches. Two, some context. I knew most of them, but ones like the hockey shutout baffled me. Also I have no idea who that woman was at the end or who her son was.
Her Son Was Junior Seau, A Football Player Who Played For the Chargers and Patriots and then committed suicide in 2012.
Zing Highlights Yes, of course. Seau's death hit me hard even though I wasn't a fan of any of the teams he played for.
teddy coming back was so happy we loved him so much in MN I was there and it was awesome
You the real mvp omg that was sad 😢
Zing you the real mvp
13:30-14:30 Proof - if proof were needed - that if you let the people sing their great anthem for themselves, their passion and love for their country will shine through on its own. There is ABSOLUTELY no need for an AGT (or in our case BGT) or "Voice" wannabe to destroy it! LET THE PEOPLE SING!
Stewart Scott what a great human being I miss watching him on ESPN. Truly the best ESPN anchor.
Thank you for this video. I'm not sure if the national anthem will ever be given the respect it deserves again. At least not until this nonsense around the country ends.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame speech of Shannon Sharpe made me shed tears, talking about his grandmother. He asked her, when he signed his first pro contract with the Denver Broncos, "What do you want me to buy you, grandmother?" All she said she wanted was not to get wet when it rained, as the house they lived in had a leaky roof and they could never afford to get it fixed. He also said some poignant words about his brother, Sterling, whose NFL career was cut short. He told the crowd at the ceremony that he is the 200-something member of the HoF, but he is the second best football player in his family. He called Sterling the best football player out of the two. Sterling, among the standing ovation, watched, and tears flowed from his eyes. A very beautiful, yet emotional HoF speech!
i will add it to part two!
Here's one you can add if you want. Rugby players pay tribute to Jonah Lomu (probably spelled it wrong) by performing the Haka in his honor.
