The Eagles were not going to score a TD on that possesion. It probably would have been 17-13 and he Bucs would have gotten the ball back

Cleveland always goes into prevent when they have a lead in the fourth. Especially back then.

Also, I forgot Red Right 88, and when Jose Mesa blew the 1997 World Series.
Living near Cleveland we have a lot, but we try to forget them.

Cannot think of 5 off the top of my head right now...but I was extremely dissapointed when France lost to Italy and Zidane just lost his temper in the World Cup. I would have loved to see Zidane, Barthez, and Thuram go out on top. Sacré bleu!!! Another dissapointment was The Canadian mens Hockey team not even winning a medel in the 2006 Winter Olympics. :mad:
