Before I really start diving into my top sports moments of the decade, it’s important to give out some honorable mentions.

Derek Jeter’s walk-off single in his final game at Yankee Stadium was certainly a difficult one to cut along with the 2016 NCAA men’s basketball championship between North Carolina and Villanova. The Auburn miracles in 2013 are certainly high up on most people’s list but I did not know which one to pick then I forgot about both of them while making the rest of my top five.
