Games that you want to cover

[hockeybeat]

This is sort of a spin off of 93Devils' remarkably long poll/thread about what games or events in the past you wish you had a chance to cover.

What games or events do you want to cover in the future? Is there a game that you've thought about, dreamed about covering? And why?

I have two:

The first is covering the Toronto Maple Leafs winning The Cup in Game 7 in Toronto. The other is covering the Cubs winning the World Series at Wrigley. There would be so much real emotion with both organizations and their fanbases. Both cities and franchises have so much history and the atmospheres would be amazing.

I assumed you meant games that would actually have a chance of happening.



I want to do the Kentucky Derby.

I did mean that. That's why I didn't write, "The New York Jets winning the Super Bowl."

Peyton Manning breaking Dan Marino's career touchdowns record.

Ohio in the BCS title game :D

Montana in the I-AA title game.

The 2016 Summer Olympics in Chicago.

I'd love to cover any team's first World Series clincher. Just the emotion on the field and in the clubhouse would be much more special and breed memories and stories within a writer for years.

army-navy, any year

A night game in Baton Rouge.

Peyton Manning breaking Dan Marino's career touchdowns record.

You mean the record Brett Favre broke earlier this season?

 

[GBNF]

A premier horsing event in which a horse dies...just so I can attempt to be a tenth as good as W.C. Heinz.

Oh, and a special olympics.

Well, dammit.

Peyton Manning breaking Brett Favre's career touchdown records then.

That was my idea when I read the first topic. Either that or the Cubs finally winning it.

Other ideas would be the BCS title game and the Super Bowl, although I've heard the latter is just a downright nightmare.

London Olympics.

Next World Cup.

U.S. Open (tennis).

 

[NoOneLikesUs]

The match when the USA wins the men's World Cup.

That would be cosmic, out-of-this world ****.

 

[PhilaYank36]

Tiddly-winks and Connect Four.

The press conference announcing Gary Bettman's firing.

That's about all I got.

The press conference announcing Gary Bettman's firing.

That will be a beautiful day. I think hockey people everywhere want to cover that presser.

A-Rod's first game back at the Stadium might be kind of fun.

I've covered the Endeavor Games, which are a smaller-scale paralympics. Events like the Special Olympics or Endeavor Games are really tough to cover. There's a lot of suffering and triumph all at the same time. Heavy stuff.
