On Saturday, the United States of America celebrates its 250th birthday, and one of the all-time greatest NFL players released his list of the most iconic sports moments in American history.
In a video published on Friday to celebrate the 250th birthday, seven-time Super Bowl Champion Tom Brady recognized the 2013 Iron Bowl's final play in which Auburn's Chris Davis returned a missed field goal attempt with one second left on the clock 109 yards for the game-winning touchdown, as one of the greatest moments in American sports.
The Kick Six was included among some of the top moments, such as Lou Gehrig's "Farewell to Baseball" address, President George W. Bush's first pitch at Yankee Stadium three weeks after the 9/11 attacks, Michael Jordan's "Flu Game," The Miracle on Ice, his 28-3 comeback over the Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl and Dale Earnhardt's win at Daytona in 1998.
"There's nothing like sports, and nobody does it better than us," Brady says. "God bless America, and here's to the next 250. It's going to be tough to beat that list."
