Guest JangoFett4Hire Report post Posted February 5, 2003 OK - let's see... Game 6 of the 1986 World Series. BY THE WAY: People are so quick to point to Billy buck as the goat of that series, where in all actuality his knees were toast and seeing as how the Sox were leading in extra innings, John McNamara would have been wise to put in Dave Stapleton as a defensive replacement. And also, Bob Stanley and Calvin Schiraldi choked, choked, choked. That game vs the Yankees in 2001 where the Sox suffered the worst defeat at Fenway ever, something like 22-1. Yikes. How about that 5 game series, with 2 double headers, vs the Indians in 2000 where Carl Everett blew off conditioning on his bum knee. Super Bowl 31- Damn you Desmond Howard. Damn you to hell. the Pats' 1999 season: Start off 6-2, finish 8-8. The Celtics the other night- worst defeat in the history of the team!! Seeing the Bruins nickle and dime every semi-big name free agent: Khristich, Stumpel, Carter, Allison, Guerin, Dafoe. Gee, it will be fun when Sergei and Big Joe are up for negotitions... FINALLY- Marvin Hagler losing the Middleweight belt to the cycloptic Sugar Ray. 15 years later, and it is still BULLSHIT!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crazy Dan Report post Posted February 5, 2003 The Giants blowing Game six of the World Series, and ending up losing the whole thing. Worse, most of the Angel's fans had no idea Anaheim had a team until there was about six weeks left in the season. That and those damn thunder stix. I also, hated the fact the umps missed lil jeffrey stealing the game for the Yankees in 1996. Man, talk about the umps needing glasses and a clue. The Trailblazers blowing Game 7 against the Lakers... I hate the Lakers. The Warriors trading Chris Webber and then getting rid of Don Nelson. Dennis Eckersly(sp?) not taking Kirk Gibson serious, and throwing every pitch over the plate. The A's not being able to get out of the first round of the playoffs the last three years, despite having one of the best pitching staffs in the big leagues. The fact that the Lakers have played so uninspired this year, and they still will make the playoffs. I hate it when teams play "Push the button on/off" style of basketball.

Guest alkeiper Report post Posted February 5, 2003 Dennis Eckersly(sp?) not taking Kirk Gibson serious, and throwing every pitch over the plate. I think Eck took Gibson seriously. That matchup lasted nearly ten minutes legit, and Eck threw 10-12 pitches. Eventually he had to either hang a pitch or walk Gibson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted February 6, 2003 "That stupid little shit pulls in a home run for the Yankess against the O's in the 1996 ALCS and gets treated like a hero by idiots New Yorkers for cheating." Amen. In fact 7 years later and I'm even angrier today about that fucker. The fact that people knew his name disgusted me. In no way does cheating like that make you worthy of sports fans around the country knowing your name. And now i've heard it so many times I KNOW HIS FUCKING NAME. Anger...... (5 minutes later) Ok i've calmed down a little. 1991,1996 world series. Ok I like the Twins, and they earned that victory in 91, but we really shoulda been able to take that. But nothing compares to 96, where we blow a 2-0 series lead and lose 4-2. And it really shoulda been 3-1 after 4 games (Fuck you Leyritz). For that matter world series 96,98-2000. The Yankees dynasty made me lose interest in the sport, and it's only come back lately. The Diamond backs winning sickened me too, but any one over the Yankees for once was nice. The Lakers 3 peating, and about to 4 peat despite just now hitting 500 in Feburary. Argh. And of course the snow bowl. Brady fumbled that ball, end of story. And Sports Illustrated declaring that game of the year makes me sick. Excuse me while I run for the bathroom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That matchup lasted nearly ten minutes legit, and Eck threw 10-12 pitches. Eventually he had to either hang a pitch or walk Gibson. Actually, IMO, Eck didn't take Gibson seriously at all... he threw every pitch over the middle of the plate. 10-12 pitches over the middle of the plate, and one could tell you that if Gibson connected, it was going to be launched into the stands. And unfortunately Gibson did. I think Eck saw that Gibson was walking cripple at that point, and thought he would be an easy out. One of the only times I saw Eck really blow it.

Guest evilhomer Report post Posted February 11, 2003 Wide right. I hate the Bills and didn't really want to see them win, but this one was really heartbreaking. They fought like hell to get where they were and truly did deserve to get that victory. Being a Leafs fan, I'd have to say some of my worst moments come in the off season. They're one of the richest teams in the league but want to be trailblazers in the fiscal responsibility market and pass up on countless free agents, then go and sign lesser talent for more than they're worth.

Guest DrTom Report post Posted February 16, 2003 The Baltimore Colts being stolen from the city under the cover of darkness on March 29, 1984, by asshole owner Robert Irsay. I don't wish death on many people, but I did a little dance when that fucker finally kicked the bucket. I'm sure I wasn't alone in this area, either: I still see the occasional "Nuke Irsay" bumper stickers on older cars. I think it would be hilarious if they left Indianapolis in a similar fashion. No, the Browns move was NOT the same. It was known they were moving, the NFL mollycoddled the city every step of the way, and gave the city an expansion team three years later. Baltimore was treated like the red-headed stepchild of the league, and Tagliabue even told the city to "build a museum" instead of building a stadium to get another team.

Guest DrTom Report post Posted February 16, 2003 That kid catching the fly ball in the 96 ALCS. I'm not a Boston fan... Neither am I, but considering it happened to the Orioles, not the Red Sox, that's what pissed me off so much about it. It's debatable whether or not Tony Tarasco catches that ball (he says he had it lined up, I think he would have had to jump and make a nice catch), but there's no way it goes over the fence unless that little jackass carries it over. And then for him to be treated like a hero for CHEATING, CUTTING SCHOOL, and BREAKING THE LAW... it was almost enough to make my put a shotgun blast into my TV, I swear.

Guest CanadianChris Report post Posted February 18, 2003 Joe Carter's walk off home run to win the 1993 World Series. Funny, that was my BEST moment as a fan. My worst: Senators roll over for Buffalo in the first round 1999 after their best regular season ever. Sens again quit against Toronto in 2001. (Bye-bye Alexei Yashin.) Wide right. Gretzky's OT game-winner in Game 6 against Toronto in 1993. (Should've been in the box...he drew blood on Gilmour.) Blue Jays blow a 3-1 series lead against the Royals in 1985...the first year of the best-of-7 format in the LCS. 49ers 55, Broncos 10. Cowboys 56, Bills 17. The 1987 Blue Jays...Tony Fernandez hurts his shoulder, Ernie Whitt breaks his leg, and the Jays lose six straight one-run games to cough up the East Division to the freaking Tigers in the final week. All those freaking shootout losses by Team Canada. The national disgrace that is Ben Johnson...I still remember where I was when I heard he'd tested positive. And, of course, Game 6.
