Moments in time / Twenty-five years after The Catch and The Play (and the home run), consider these the Bay Area's 10 ...
More than 25 years ago, at the start of 1982, Bay Area fans had no way of knowing they soon would witness two of the most memorable moments in sports history. Those images became partners in upper-case lore: Dwight Clark reaching halfway to the stars to make The Catch and Kevin Moen weaving through Stanford's band to complete The Play. Clark's catch counts as one of the most famous moments in NFL history and the landmark play in 49ers history, launching the franchise toward the first of its five Super Bowl titles. Moen's moment was more about sheer craziness, punctuating Cal's unforgettable five-lateral kickoff return to beat Stanford in the Big Game. The Play qualifies as the most famous play in college football history, an unmatched blend of drama, spontaneity and absurdity.
Back In The New York Groove; Vikings Thrash Giants
"New York Groove" is a song performed by legendary Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley on his self-titled 1978 album. It also happens to be the ditty that the New York Giants used to play after they scored a touchdown at Giants Stadium. The Minnesota Vikings defense may just claim the song as their own. Two years ago in North Jersey, Vikings safety Darren Sharper picked off Eli Manning three times, returning one for a touchdown in a 24-21 Minnesota win. And, while it didn't count, the Vikings trashed the New York Jets, 37-20, during a preseason game at the stadium in August, when both Sharper and linebacker Chad Greenway returned interceptions for touchdowns. Fast forward to this past Sunday when Sharper, safety Dwight Smith and Greenway all returned Manning interceptions for touchdowns as Minnesota stunned the New York Giants again, 41-17.

Headed by a game developer named Harmonix Music Studios, this monster of a title would forever change the worlds of rocking and gaming, mixing and mashing the once completely differing entities into common allies in the struggle against authority. This game, known as Guitar Hero, would come from out of nowhere to sweep the nation, spreading shock and awe as any common gaming geek could now become a rock god.
