Is there an Oscar for Internet video?

This is the most incredible thing I have ever seen. The bottom of the 10th inning from game 6 of the 1986 World Series, recreated in RBI Baseball and synchronized with Vin Sculley's commentary from the game.

Two years ago, watching this would have caused me to go into a crying fit of rage. I can describe exactly where I was and what I was doing when this went down back in 1986. But now that 2004 is in the bag, I can enjoy this for the pure artistic genius that it is.

Conor Lastowka is the creator of this work of art.

I so wish I had this sort of free time. I'm jealous. :D

I was in the basement bar of one of the frats on my college campus. It was a wild scene -- one I'll never forget.

Go Mets!

We had road tripped to the Univ of IL for the weekend and were hanging out at our frat chapter there. We left their TV room as the bottom of the 10th started - secure that the Sox had won. About 8 minutes later we walked into a bar to absolute delirium...and I remember exactly what I thought at the time...the mad celebration should have been over with by now.

And then I saw the Mets going nuts on the big screen TV. I can remember the scene like it was yesterday.
