List some of sports greatest one year wonders.

One year, one game, one shining moment...who were the ones who reached the highest heights in sport but only for a short time?

'Super Joe' was never the same after winning the 1980 ROY award, he was out of baseball entirely just two years later, he never batted above .214 after his rookie campaign.

Trung Candidate.

Jesus he looked so awesome as Marshall's back up that one season than panned out to be absolute crap.

Another one from 1980..... US Hockey Goalie Jim Craig.

It wasn't long after the 1980 Olympics that Craig disappeared out of the hockey spotlight, a post Olympic 4 game stint with Atlanta and a half a season in Boston the following year and Jim Craig was all done as a Pro hockey player.

Craig is a key note speaker for a medical device manufacturer and pulling down 20K and up for motivational speaking engagements.

Uou can't hear the name or see the face without remembering the US flag draped around him.

Maybe the greatest 'one game wonder'

On the biggest stage Redskins RB Timmy Smith rushed for 206 yards, a Super Bowl record.

Smith's entire career rushing total? A mere 600 yards! :lolBIG:

He's was such a one game wonder, you can't even google a picture of him, nothing but 'forbidden images' that are very scarce..

Jim Carey - The Net Detective - Won the Vezina in 1996 then nothing.

Hideo Nomo his first year

David Duvall totally dominated the tour in 1998. Although He lasted more than 1 year, I have never heard of anyone that was the best in his Sport for a whole year and then sank almost out of sight !

Something tells me that the Hogs had a lot more to do with him gaining 206 yards than his running talent did.

Hopefully Belichick's sportsmanship after Patriots loss to Colts. He doesn't lose it and he gets his ass kicked!

Do you give out picks or just try to cheap shot people? I was also NFL Pick 4 Champion $7,500 first prize this past yr, I doubt you noticed that either, since you just cheap shot people and I assume play in free contests ....and to think I actually voted to unban you lol

Let me know when you start posting picks and I'll actually pay attn to something you have to say...
