The year in pictures

When I was a teenager my favorite Sports Illustrated issue was The Year In Pictures. No. Really. It was. Not the swimsuit issue. That was second. The Year In Pictures was the best, especially on olympic years. It was just great to look back at some of the best sporting moments captured in stunning images by the best sports photographers in the world. A picture really is worth a thousand words. Especially that one of Big Vince rumbling down the field after his interception against San Diego. Or the one of Gronk going head-over-heels for a TD against KC. Or Brady diving for a TD in the AFC title game. Or... it really was a great season.
