Watch: Brady Quinn Shares Memories of Loudest Stadium, Toughest Foes at Notre Dame

Quinn discusses some of the best environments he played in and shares a story of just how loud Neyland Stadium in Tennessee was when the Irish pulled the upset of the Vols in 2004.

It’s been the way of the sports media world since live events shut down just over a month ago – old games and story time of sports from yesteryear.  Former Notre Dame quarterback and now rising star in the media, Brady Quinn joined Barton Simmons on “Social Distance” a new show 247Sports is putting on.

Quinn discusses some of the best environments he played in and shares a story of just how loud Neyland Stadium in Tennessee was when the Irish pulled the upset of the Vols in 2004.  He also takes you down memory lane a bit with stories of the “Bush Push” game and the satisfaction of earning a BCS berth in 2005 after the struggles Notre Dame had early in his career.

Take a watch below and remember some of the happy and some of the more painful memories in semi-recent Notre Dame history through the eyes of one of all the all-time Fighting Irish greats.

The 38’s in regards to the Michigan game in ’04 was fun but Derrelle Revis baiting Quinn back in 2005 was probably my favorite story shared.  I always enjoy hearing stories of stars before they were seen nationally as stars and also enjoyed his openness about being out-matched in terms of physical ability against Ohio State and LSU during his college years.

WATCH: Boston Celtics Top 10 Plays of the 2010s

The 2010s were about transitions for the Celtics, but were also filled with great basketball; we’ve got their best moments for you here.

With the arrival of a new year comes the arrival of a new decade for the Boston Celtics — one that will likely revolve around the growth of its talented young core.

But much of the last decade we’re about to be finished with was about assembling that core.

Through trial-and-error and some cagy moves by team president Danny Ainge and the rest of the front office, fans had the luxury of having a watchable team in a rebuild through the genius of having another team tank for you (sorry, Brooklyn Nets fans).

And before that, in the first years of the decade, the Banner 17 squad was still at it, grinding out some near-misses that would ultimately lay the groundwork for that Nets trade (and a certain Adam Sandler film) that would define the direction of the team today.

Throughout that ten-year span, there were a lot of amazing games filled with the plays that made our mouths hang agape, fists pumping in the air while hapless friends, family — and sometimes, neighbors — shook their heads in disbelief at our reactions.

In the above video, check out some of the best of the best of the 2010s, a most awkwardly-named decade to match a transition that was awkward for a bit in the middle — and quite amazing on the bookends.
