Tony P Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 If you haven't read the below linked column, you should really check it out. Thanks for posting this link! That was during winter break of my senior year at Brockport so there weren’t too many people back in town yet. I joined a few of my Rugby teammates over at a friend of a friend’s house to watch the game, there were about 20 of us there. We all started drinking early so by halftime, we all had decent buzz going. It was a pretty boring 1st half so at halftime we went outside to play a short game of kill the man with the ball. That got us all fired up for the 2nd half. The party was jumping as we got back into the game and then went completely nuts when Christie hit that FG. After the forward lateral, all the energy was sucked out of the place but quickly returned as anger after we saw the 1st replay. Then once the ref went to the replay booth, the energy turned back into excitement because we were all certain that it would be overturned, it was just a formality, or so we thought. Once the ref came back and said the play stands, we were all like WTF and it basically ended the party. We had planned to stay there for the 2nd game and beyond but everyone was so pissed that we all just went home. I don’t care what that ESPN Sport Science show says, that was a forward lateral and you’ll never be able to convince me otherwise. Adam Schefter agrees too. http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/2014/story/_/page/blitz150101/still-not-buying-music-city-miracle-adam-schefter-blitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 What hurts more? This, Wide Right, or No Goal?im more of a Bills fan than Sabres so I would choose this because I think the call was wrong and the Bills should have won. The game was taken from us. With wide right, at least it was decided correctly. Jmo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 What hurts more? This, Wide Right, or No Goal? Wide Right hurts the most because we're talking about a few feet from a Super Bowl championship. Home Run Throwup is second because of the sudden shift in emotion from elation to despair. No Goal was terrible, but it just didn't feel the same. The Sabres would still have needed to score and then win a Game 7 at Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 im more of a Bills fan than Sabres so I would choose this because I think the call was wrong and the Bills should have won. The game was taken from us. With wide right, at least it was decided correctly. Jmo. True. I've almost come to terms with No Goal. Because it was a stupid rule in the first place, but it was a rule. There was no guarantee we would have won that game anyway. Even if we did win, that was only game 6, so we still would have had to play the next night. Where with Music City and Wide Right, those were game/championship winners. Also, I'm more of a Bills fan as well. That being said, #!*& Brett Hull!
