Today is Jason Alexander's 49th birthday. To celebrate, we thought it'd be appropriate to link up some of the classic sports-related moments from Seinfeld. Think the faux-JFK episode with Keith Hernandez gets in here? You're right.

Before we begin, here's a good list of the best sports moments from the show.
