In the pre-Interwebs/YouTube Era, GMSM was the go-to place for unique sports footage. 

And Plays of the Month (and Year) was a much better production than any collective pieces of shit that the Booyah! Network has produced.

Someone said George Michael would put 5 minutes of tape into a 4 minute spot.

But...it's called the Ultimate Highlight.  That's right, ULTIMATE.  It couldn't be more Ultimate unless it was called the Xtreme Ultimate Highlight.  Nickelback rocking your face off, clips of sports spliced in between shots of Gatorade and glowing sweat on shirtless dudes, what more could you want?  Now that's SPORTS.  Sports Machine?  More like Bore Machine.
