A moving tribute to the Spurs: "The Beautiful Game"

I'm not going to lie, it got a bit misty as I watched this video.

USA TODAY Sports

This is, without a doubt, the single greatest Spurs-related video I've ever seen. If you're a Spurs fan, I defy you to watch this without getting a lump in your throat.

I've had this link on my "to do" list for the past couple of days, and finally got to it today. I wish I'd have seen this as soon as it posted so that I could have gotten it to you sooner. I've only seen it once, and I'm typing this as fast as I can so that I can post this story and watch it again.

Someday, I hope to meet Colin Stanton, the man who put this video together, so that I can tell him how much it meant to me, and buy him lunch or wash his car or pick up his dry cleaning. Something!

I'm not overstating it a bit when I say that this video moved me, and made me proud to be a Spurs fan. I feel certain that you'll enjoy it too.

UPDATE: Please feel free to visit the comments section, even if you usually don't, and point out your favorite moment (or moments) of the video, as some are doing already.
