Default Which hurts the most

We all know the game last year was really bitter bill to swallow, espically after watching the playoffs this year.But 05 and 06 and even 08 has ended bitterly .. So I ask what has been the most disapointing for you.

I say Denver. Mainly because that game was the worst playoff performance of BB's era, imho. Even the guys with sure hands were fumbling that day. It was aweful.

Super Bowl loss. The closer the Super Bowl gets this year, the more I find myself thinking about last years Super Bowl and what might have been. I guess you can compare it to losing a loved one (I know football is only a game) but as you go through your life, every year as the date of their passing away gets closer, the more you think about them.

How close they came to winning it and the method they lost it is what I think about. They scored with roughly two minutes left. Giants have to drive more than eighty yards, the Pats just about sack Manning, he gets away, launches a prayer, the unbelievable catch on the helmet, three drop interceptions on the final drive and Ellis Hobbs man-to-man on Plaxico Burress. It just wasn't meant to be.

I cringe every time last year's SB is mentioned. Time to get over it I know, but my heart and gut haven't gotten that message yet.

SB, clearly. It was the biggest game. It was for 19-0. And the game was over if A$$ante catches the damn ball.

I think this is a excellent point.. Its when it gets closer I start to think about last year.. If last year say eneded in a wild card round, and we did not have the season we had then well the afc title game would be it for me.. But last season was so unbelievable, when the super bowl is played this year, I will reflect on last year when the whole talk was not about undefeated, but what some cranky old senator, and a reporter who thought he knew the truth about some guy in hawaii that had dirt on us,was more important.. It was like a train wreck when it should have been special... Will not forgive, and cant forget Tomasse, or Spector on what he took as a fan away from our experience...

Last year really took the wind out of my sails for a while, kinda like a gut punch... never expected that outcome, and assante dropping the ball.. we should have won that game.

Not just the helmet, it was the side to the back of the helmet. I didn't realize what a stupid joke it was until about a month ago because I wouldn't watch replays or look at pictures. That catch NEVER happens again.

SB. I'm still in denial... Giants are cheaters! We win if one of the 10 obvious holding plays get called on the final drive. What's worse, cheating and getting punished (spygate), or cheating, winning the SB and not getting caught (Giants).



Ok, I'm done.
