Bobby Orr
May 10, 1970, at the Stanley Cup finals. Bobby Orr, the defenseman for the Boston Ruins, flies through the air triumphantly as his flying goal secured his team’s Stanley Cup Game 4 win while they battled against the St. Louis Blues. The MVP title would go to Orr for his acrobatic winning shot, but more incredibly, this would be the first Boston Bruins victory in almost three decades. And no, Orr was not tripped by the player behind him!

Joe Namath
January 10, 1969, during the Super Bowl III. Joe Namath of the Jets QB assures the many fawning reporters around him that his underdog team would conquer the Baltimore rivals, who were the 18-point favorite. Better known for his nickname, ‘Broadway Joe’, Namath would put his money where his mouth was when his MVP-awarded performance secured a 16-7 win for the Jets. Namath sure seemed confident in the provided picture, where his easy-going smile and relaxed posture show an absolute confidence in his ability and eventual winning play.
