Watching baseball highlights the other day and I was wondering which of the 3 major sports have the best highlights. I have two categories; offense and defense. Not ranking the sport but the highlights they produce.

Based on the wow factor ("did you see that?!) I see them as follows:

Defense
1. Baseball (nothing beats watching defensive gems like a infielder making a miraculous stop and out or an outfielder throwing the runner out at home)
2. Football (hard hits, interceptions, etc.)
3. Basketball (blocked shots?)

Offense
1. Football (RB juking defenders, 60+ yard passes, trick plays, etc.)
2. Basketball (crossover dribbling, magical assists, watching a player go off, who is hot)
3. Baseball (yawn... maybe a late game rally down 4+ runs)

I am a basketball fan first, then semi football fan and don't watch baseball (except for the top plays of the week). Interested in how you all would rank the three.

Just really don't find baseball interesting. Football wins for defense, mostly because interceptions get returned for TDs. Also, who doesn't love seeing their least-favorite QBs getting sacked?

Basketball: 2 seconds left, leading team inbounds the ball, trailing team steals the ball and passes it for a buzzer-beating game winning hoop.
