Classic Richie. So understated.

I remember Bruce's commentary of Ben Johnson at 1988 Olympics as being inspiring at the time, but it subsequently lost its gloss after Johnson was done for doping.

The most memorable part for me is a small but very prescient bit, where when referring to the new world record, Bruce qualifies it with "If it's legal"; surely referring to the possibility of it not counting due to wind assistance, but ultimately having a very different impact.

I do wonder if that's a regular thing that Bruce & other commentators would say in this type of scenario.

Not sure but I vaguely recollect around that time somebody else running a world record time only for it to not count due to wind.

Thats one of my fave sporting moments of all time. The vision behind the goals(from finish line looking at runners coming towards finish line) is great. Ben was massive

The French commentators calling one of the greatest tries in World Cup rugby.

Looked like at least three dead-set forward passes in that lot...

Genuinely great player too, won the MVP and a title with the Blazers in the same year. Even played some good basketball at the Celtics during his comeback and won another title.

When he was a college basketballer he got permission from his coach to smoke after he played to relax. He also went on tour with the Dead when they played the pyramids in Giza because he was recovering from injury at time.

"In your life...!" gives me goosebumps everytime
