Why do I do that to myself?

[Mr. Miyagi]

I just re-watched the actual broadcast of the Music City Forward Lateral Miracle on youtube. It feels as devastating as the day it happened.

I remember exactly where I was when I saw that play on TV. It's like one of those JFK/9-11/OJ verdict things. I was kneeling down in my then living room while my wife was rocking our brand new baby to sleep (she's now 8 by the way). The play happened and I jumped up screaming and woke up the baby, and got yelled at by my wife.

I was at Rooties. I remember saying "oh no".

Oh no? I said a lot more than that, in front of my wife and baby daughter.

Re: Why do I do that to myself?

i was 16 or so at the time. i remember exactly where I was and what I said. I was already conditioned at such a young age to think the Bills would circle the wagons and find a way to blow it. very sad. I didnt cheer when we scored our last pts like my brother and father. I knew better. I sat there years ahead of my time and with wisdom said theres 16 seconds left, its not over yet. I knew as long as the Bills had any chance to lose the time for celebration wasnt right. you know the rest.....unfornately the Bills havent given me any reason since then to feel otherwise.

the was the beginning of the end of Rob Johnsons career even though Flutie totally deserved to start that game. what the Bills did to Flutie was absurd. all the Flutie Bills fans left after that.

I love the term of Flutie Bills fans, which tells me they put a player before the team which to me is a no no.

i use the term Flutie Bills fans cause my gf happens to be one of them although she is still partial to the Bills and cant stand the cowboys, pats, and dolphins thank god which makes it overall a tolerable situation.

I thought Johnson played pretty good that game, considering the fact he sucks.

I'm trying to be reserved here but as a co-creator of a site that was entitled Flutie Haters site I have issues saying that Flutie deserved to start against Tennessee but alas don't want to rehash old debates.

Re: Why do I do that to myself?

that play was the beginning of the end for us.... our downward spiral started at that exact moment.

BTW, ever re-watch the whole game?

With under two minutes left in the first half, one of the Bills receivers made a catch on 3rd down and was ruled out- he was actually in, and it clearly shows on replay. Well, the refs didn't go upstairs to the replay booth so the Bills had to punt. Tennessee is then driving and the same thing happens- the receiver is in bounds but is ruled out. However, this time the refs DO grant a replay and the call is overturned. A few plays later, Tennessee scores.

So, the Titans had all the advantages. I'm not big on conspiracy theories, but the fix was in on that game.

Re: Why do I do that to myself?

i remember a Bills Patriots game around that time that reeks of a similar theme. around that time period too.

its hard not to overlap Bills with conspiracy.

But they say over the course of the season it goes 50/50 but its never exactly 50/50 and some games are bigger then others.
