Vanhalen Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Just something thats happened to you that you'd consider a humiliation for your team, any sport, just someone/team you've followed thats kicked you in the teeth, whether it being losing a Superbowl, getting thrashed by some shit team, seeing a great team fade into nothing, all sorts
TheFranchise Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Leicester 2 Derby 1. For non-Derby and Leicester fans, it was the play off final of 94. edit: or was it 1-0?
Kahran Ramsus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The Strike, period. Nothing else comes close. It destroyed the Expos who were about to make the playoffs for the first time since 1981. The only good thing that came out of it was that we got to say the Blue Jays were World Champions for another year despite absolutely stinking in 1994. I used to be like alkeiper when it came to baseball, but I just lost interest after that. I know people who still refuse to watch MLB. At least I came back.
Brett Favre Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Lets see. The Jets last year losing to the Steelers on two missed Doug Brien kicks. The Yankees blowing a 3-0 series lead to the Red Sox. The Knicks losing in the 1994 NBA Finals, Game 7 to the Houston Rockets. The Knicks blowing a 3-1 lead to the Heat in the 1997 Semi-Conference Finals. The Yankees losing in 5 games to the Mariners in 1995. The Yankees losing to the Diamondbacks in the 2001 World Series in Game 7. The Jets losing to the Broncons in the 1998 AFC Championship game. A series of Reggie Miller moments against the Knicks. That's all for now.
Crimson Platypus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Personal: Junior year of H.S. football, was playing defensive back, the team we were playing ran an option and it was pouring rain that day so the field was muddy as hell... Anyway I'm sure you can see where this is going, our DE stepped up and made the QB pitch, the RB dipped his shoulder to the inside, I bit, damn I looked like an ass when he walked into the end zone (this was on the ten yard line) while I sat in the mud. Otherwise I'd go with the strike as well, killed my love for baseball, which I am just now slowly regaining.
Vanhalen Posted April 27, 2005 Author Report Posted April 27, 2005 I think this sums up mine pretty well http://www.saintsforever.com/bs.html Either that or my sig
iggymcfly Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 This one's a little different, but for me it would be the 1996 I-AA Championship game. Going in, my hometown Montana Grizzlies were 14-0 and were defending national champions, and we were absolutely sure we were going to win another title. The problem was that the Marshall team we were playing had a couple guys named Chad Pennington and Randy Moss. Needless to say, our corners got lit up like pinball machines the entire game, and we got destroyed. I think the final was something like 49-23, but in reality, it was nowhere near that close.
Black Lushus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 I'm a Bills fan...take a guess... John Starks going 3 for something like 800 during game 7 of the Knicks/Rockets NBA Finals series...the whole time I kept shouting for Pat Riley to sit Starks non-shootin ass down!
iggymcfly Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Oh, back on heartbreaking I-AA games, in the first round of the 1993 playoffs, the #2 Grizzlies got a touchdown to take a 48-42 lead late in the game, but missed the extra point. Delaware scored a touchdown on the ensuing drive to take the 49-48 lead, but we still had about 40 seconds to come back. However, rather than use their three timeouts, the coaches inexplicably just ran a no-huddle and let the clock run out. That game bothered me for about a whole year afterwards, and to this day, I don't know why they wouldn't use their timeouts in that situation.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The Drive........... fucking Elway.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 To keep the defense confused and unable to substitute? It's still stupid, but in an already high-scoring game, I can see some logic out of it.
CanadianChris Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 San Francisco 55, Denver 10. The devolution of the Blue Jays since 1993 ranks up there as well, as does four playoff exits in five years for the Sens at the hands of the Leafs.
Black Lushus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 the New York Rangers every season after the 94 season...
cabbageboy Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Time for some Kentucky area basketball, more of these are UK than U of L. --Laettner making the shot of course, but it didn't bother me as much as others since Duke was really the better team anyway. --I was always more disgusted with UK losing to Michigan in the 93 FF. I've always found the Fab 5 incredibly overrated and to this day and to this day don't understand how the hell UK didn't own them by 20. UK was just destroying people in that tourney, beating Wake by like 35 and Florida St. by 25, while Michigan was getting lucky as shit every single round. I was sure UK would trash them. --The single most upsetting UK defeat however was the 97 finals loss to Zona. Pitino didn't play Derek Anderson (who had basically recovered from injury but Pitino didn't wanna risk it), and now Lute Olson gets to carry that 1 title to his grave. --As far as U of L goes, I am a bit young to remember the early 80s FF losses. I'm sure if I had been alive in 75 that UCLA game would have about killed me. This year's FF vs. Illinois didn't upset me all that much since they were better. I'd have to say the 1996 Sweet 16 vs. Wake was a truly awful defeat. U of L was up 5 with about 2 mins left and Tim Duncan scored the last 6 points (including getting away with a charge) and Wake won 60-59. It was sickening since U of L would have played UK in the Elite 8 if we'd held on. I ranted after the game "Why the hell did Wake have to win that? They're just going to get murdered by UK now! We would have had a puncher's chance!" And of course UK murdered them the next round and made Duncan look like a little bitch.
CanadianGuitarist Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 96 World Cup, 98 Olympic Men's Hockey tie for first overall. Ben Johnson in 88 and The Strike come in a close tie behind. Interestingly, not so much this year's NHL lockout, which I saw coming for about 3 years. 94's was pretty devestating, however.
sfaJack Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 2003 NLCS, Game 6. Everything from Bartman to Gonzalez's error to Dusty waiting too long to pull Prior makes me sick.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The plethora of times I was the final out for my one little league baseball team...
the pinjockey Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Worst sports moment: 2001 Daytona 500 Worst kick in the teeth sports moment: Joe Jurevicious' reception in the NFC title game in 2003.
Guest Smues Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Probably the 1996 world series. Fucking Yankees. Runner up is diffenently the tuck rule game. I got a lot of funny looks in the dorm that night as I just about exploded.
strummer Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Baseball-1988 NLCS. The Mets lose to the Dodgers in 7 despite clearly being the better team (I know everyone would expect Kenny Rogers in 99 in Atlanta, but the Braves were the better team and deserved to win, the Mets were better than the Dodgers in 88) Football- Giants blow the playoff game to the 49ers in 03 Basketball-Knicks, Reggie Miller scores 234 points in 4 seconds, Game 6 1994 Finals in Houston, Starks goes 1-66
Black Lushus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Basketball-Knicks, Reggie Miller scores 234 points in 4 seconds, Game 6 1994 Finals in Houston, Starks goes 1-66 god how could I forget that horrid moment where Reggie Miller cheated to win?
Guest LooneyTune Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The "time-out" heard 'round the world? That had to suck...
Black Lushus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Music City Forward pass. that too...damn my teams are always tied to bad calls and shitty players...
Crimson Platypus Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 The "time-out" heard 'round the world? That had to suck... This allows me to restate what I always say when Webber is mentioned: "The best thing about Chris Webber is that he will never win a damn thing."
kkktookmybabyaway Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Oh man, I had a field day at work the next day regarding Webber and his inability to count...
Big McLargeHuge Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Steve Finley's Slam last year topping off the bullpen imploding in game 161, a day before my B-day. Although I was ecstatic when the Cards destroyed the Dodgers in the Division Series. Game 6. Fuck Felix Rodriguez. Fuck Dusty. Game 7. Fuck Livan Hernandez. Fuck Dusty, part two. I swear to god, if the Bums win the Series this year, I think I'll lose it. Seriously.
