Best Sports DVD Ever....

"This is far and away the best sports DVD I've ever seen. Not only does it have virtually ever Boston Sports moment you could ever imagine - over 500 of them - but it sets them to music like Aerosmith's "Dream On", AC/DC's "Thunderstruck", Pearl Jam's "Man of the Hour", Train's "Drops of Jupiter", and a ton more. I could not stop watching it. It also has some great interviews with the likes of Ray Bourque, Doug Flutie, Theo Epstein, Peter Gammons, Jerry Remy, Steve Nelson and so on...
Besides just great footage, City of Champions also has all kinds of more obscure stuff, such as press conferences, retirement speeches, parades, and even things like Bob Kraft dancing in Governement Center when the Pats won their first Super Bowl and the Rick Patino and Bill Parcells press conferences - too funny!
I'm telling you, I own all of the sports DVDs that have come out in the past bunch of years, from Faith Rewarded to the aweful DVD the Globe put out and if you're from New England or love Boston sports, this DVD is it."
Boston's Best

"I really thought that Jamie Most did an excellent job putting together the Best of Boston sports highlights. Very well done. Showed a lot of highlights that the casual sports fan doesn't know about, like the 4th quarter of Game 7 NBA Playoffs in 88 between Bird and Dominique Wilkins. Not enough Patriots stuff for me, though the Snow Bowl and Tuck game as well as the Super Bowl in which Viniateri won it at the buzzer were good.
One criticism: Too much Parcells and Pitino.
