As 2025 comes to a close, so does 25 years of really significant sports moments in this region.

And so I brought this up earlier, but we have a four-part series coming to WE eI.com on the 25 most significant moments of the first

quarter of a century here for each of our franchises and then we will somehow try to

pair that down and get to the 25 most significant moments when it comes to the first quarter of a century in Boston sports.

And there's, Curtis, there's a lot of significance in those 25 years when you think about it.

I was honored to be asked to be a part of it.

Back to 2000. Tom Carroll on the website. years when you think about it i was honored to be asked to be a part of it back to back to back to

2000 tom carroll on the website out with the 25 most significant moments for the new england

patriots and so there's a lot i we're never we we are we are all never going. Well, so number one's got to be the tuck rule.

It is not.

Is it the Malcolm Butler interception? That is number

two is Malcolm Butler's interception. Mo Lewis.

No. What is number one? Number one

is the win against the Rams. Well, you don't have a win against the Rams if you don't have the tuck rule. Which our guy, Tremaine Wiggins, was a big part of. All right. So they don't have to kind of go in chronological order. See, this is why I love these things because you can go. Tom Brady being drafted is number four. To me, that could be higher.

Curtis, you can play that.

You don't have if game with all of these things.

But Adam Vinatieri's field goal in that game, in the snow, if you want to do a singular

moment, is a more important play than the kick in the Super Bowl.

Because without the 40-yard or in a blizzard, you're not in the Super Bowl taking on the Rams.

Okay, number 12 is Patriots hiring Bill Belichick.

I might argue that that should be higher.

Well, if you're going to go in Chronicle Auditical Order, that would be higher.
