Would that Butler bomb have constituted the greatest moment in sports history?

Of course not. Right.

Had Gordon Hayward's half-court heave banked through the basket Monday night to give Butler an NCAA basketball title-game win over Duke, that wouldn't have been the greatest sports moment ever. Would it?

I saw a Tweet from the Los Angeles Times' Chris Dufresne Tuesday asking if it would have been. He didn't say it would, he merely asked.

It's in the eye of the beholder, of course. But it would have been a goodie, wouldn't it?

What would you put at No. 1?

The Miracle on Ice?

World Series home runs by Bobby Thomson and/or Kirk Gibson?

Jesse Owens at the Munich Olympics?

Muhammad Ali and (fill in the blank)?

Michael Jordan and (fill in the blank)?

Secretariat finishing off his Triple Crown by winning the Belmont Stakes by 31 lengths?

I'll go with Miracle on Ice, the U.S.' college kids shocking the U.S.S.R.'s pros. That half-court shot couldn't lay a glove on "Do you believe in miracles? Yes!" in 1980.

But oh, it would have been something.
