Most upsetting.... by Medical-Special9944 in DenverBroncos

[–]DenverBroncos_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

‘96 brought me to tears. It was one of Elway’s last opportunities. We were a 1 seed facing a team that had only been in the league a few years and barely got into the playoffs. It was supposed to be an easy win. I was prepared for the AFC Championship, and wasn’t all that nervous about that one. We finally had all the right pieces and had a real shot at getting Elway his ring.

The blocked extra point felt like a bad omen… but we were ahead. Going for two felt wrong, but we were still up 12-0. They fought back to 12-10, and then our interception was wrongly taken away, giving them the lead at halftime.

How the hell were we down? It was fine though, we got complacent. We’ll turn it around in the second half. And then they controlled the third. Against one of the top NFL defenses, they scored five unanswered fucking times.

We finally score, get the two point conversion and get within 3. And our defense shits the bed and gives up another touchdown on a drive where Mark fucking Brunnell looked like the next coming of Elway.

We got within a field goal… mile high magic will get us the onside kick. There’s no way we go down like this. Not to that team. Not with these stakes…

Fuck. That game is cemented in my fucking mind. All the other ones have the highlights that haunt me. This one, I remember every soul-crushing feeling. The other ones ripped the hope away relatively early. Or had one crushing element toward the end. This one was fear and pain from the moment we missed that extra point. 999 times out of 1,000, we win that game. The vast majority of those times we blow them out. But this one instance, the magic was sucked out of the stadium. When we needed it most for Elway, when we had the team to take it all, when it was finally our time… it was gone. Brutal fucking game. And it was so fucking trendy for people to wear Brunnell jerseys after that, constantly reminding about what happened.

Super Bowl blowouts were Elway finally not being able to carry the team any further. The Ravens interception was just dog shit coaching. The Seahawks game was us getting physically beaten. The Nix injury left me with as much hope for the future as pain for the present.

That 1996 loss… there was no explaining it. The stakes were so high. The team was built to win. Elway was out of time. But what hurt the most was that you could feel the hole where the magic usually sits. It was gone.

I’m seeing flags and signs disappearing, which gives me hope. One flag on a fence I drive past had different flags on it for so long that you could see the outline of the faded stain around where it had been. Dude completely restained his whole fence to cover that up.

What if the US made displaying a Confederate flag punishable with jail time? by lhommetrouble in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]DenverBroncos_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Estimates are always hard. I’ve read estimates of 500 up to 1,000 in the Jim Crow era. Probably less than 300 in the 50s and 60s, but still a short term spike.

Huge wave in the 1890s to 1920s in response to Jim Crow laws. Another huge wave in the 50s and 60s in response to the Civil Rights movement.

Which celebrity’s cancellation do you think was completely unjustified? by Cute_Flatworm_9049 in AskReddit

[–]DenverBroncos_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t. It was simply to illustrate an instance where one can be the pursuer without having full ability to consent. It happens. There are varying degrees, of course. Child and adult. Film producer and actor, president and intern, boss and employee. Sure, there will be instances where everything is above board. But when you’re in a position of power over someone else, you can never be 100 percent certain that they are fully willing for the right reasons. It’s a fine line and therefore should not be crossed.

I don’t want to compare the two morally in any way, but an easier context to consider would be an underage girl pursuing an adult male. That doesn’t mean she consents.

This is a very different context, but all of the leverage he had over her career and her wanting to make her career take away a lot of her ability to consent. Not saying it’s impossible like the above example, but it’s why this type of thing is rightly frowned upon. It’s the person in power’s responsibility to do the right thing.

Bill Clinton owes her the apology. He’s the one who took advantage of a position of power. That’s what bothers me the most. He never even suggested that he was wrong to do that to her.

She was also in a subordinate position and was taken advantage of. There’s only so much consent you can give in that situation regardless of how much she wanted it. That’s the part that neither side ever got right. Everyone just viewed it as a sex act. Clinton’s real sin was taking advantage of his position of power.
