‘The Best in Sports’ is a daily PSO original series showcasing the best highlights, facts, and stories going on in the land of the NFL, NBA, & MLB every day. Get a recap on EVERYTHING that happened yesterday here.
Here is the best from December 29, 2019:
In what will likely be remembered as the 2019 Game of the Year, the 49ers and Seahawks battled it out all the way to the end where a costly Delay of Game and no-call on a holding led to a 4th & Goal situation where Seattle came up just inches short. At least this goaline fiasco didn’t involve Marshawn Lynch.
