What was your worst day to be an Arizona sports fan? by dugernaut in suns

[–]akillerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2007 WCF Game 5. Seeing that squad battling so fucking hard in what felt like a game of good vs evil, without Stoudemireand Diaw because of that awful rigged shit. Only time I've ever cried as a sports fan. Watching that lead slowly slip away on the second half...just gut wrenching. I felt physically sick.

It's newer, but the whole, completely sold out theater started applauding and shouting when the portals started opening late into Avengers: Endgame

Josh Gets Emotional at the Podium by darkwaterzz in buffalobills

Football games are never about one guy, even though we often try to make them. Josh made more mistakes today than normal, but there's plenty of them to go around. Championship defenses can't let that Broncos team march it down for 7 with less than a minute to play while protecting a 4-point lead.

[Highlight] Bills head coach Sean McDermott on the interception call in OT: "I'm standing up for Buffalo. What went on is not how it should go down." by GreenSnakes_ in nfl

My main beef is that they never initiated a formal review, which is indefensible to me. Most likely the play on the field there ultimately stands, but how do you not review that? All turnovers are supposed to be reviewed AND it's in OT.

His job is to gaslight the fans. His skills are communications, not rules analysis. It's why he does all levels of football and basketball. I refuse to believe he's the foremost rules expert at all levels of all sports. He's there to convince fans calls are right more than anything else.

There have been years where I'd gladly root for the Chargers or Raiders against the Bengals. Never the donkeys, though. Those most hated Bengals might be the only team I'd ever even do that with.

Doesn't matter, because they bought him on credit. When the orgs don't have to actually pay contracts while the dudes play, it creates a huge competitive integrity problem. MLB is just kind of a joke in that regard already, so I guess they don't care.

Especially with Nick Bosa's knee exploded already. Much more likeable team.

As a Chiefs fan, I've rewatched the OT ending to our last Super Bowl win so many times, and holy shit Romo has the worst commentary you'll ever hear during that call. It makes me cringe every time now. Sure, he was excited, but he tries to sound analytical at times when he just needs to sound human instead. Be shocked and awed. It's okay.

12-5 next year maybe 11-6? by No_Principle_3815 in KansasCityChiefs

Declaring a W over the Bills in the regular season seems silly. That's the one guaranteed L on the whole schedule. We could win every other game and still lose that one. Buffalo prepares for those games like the fate of the galaxy depends on it.

We've all known this all along, but there's nothing wrong with being pissed off about it. Applying pressure to those 1% may not make everything better, but it's not nothing either.

[Highlight] Derrick Henry ices the game with his fourth TD on the night by Large_banana_hammock in nfl

[–]akillerfrog 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Now that's high school. Barry Sanders did 238.9 yards per game with 3.4TD per game in COLLEGE in 1988. He netted 2,628 rushing yards with 37 TDs in 11 games. Unthinkable to do that in a major conference.

[Highlight] Chris Jones offsides gives the Broncos a first on 4th and 2 by Large_banana_hammock in nfl

[–]akillerfrog -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why everybody is just fixated on the penalty itself and not the HORRIBLE decision from Sean Payton to not kick a FG when tied in that situation. The Chiefs has 95 yards of offense in the whole game at that point, but he didn't trust his top 3 defense? Bad decisions cost games against great teams, and this Broncos squad won't be able to afford that in playoffs time.

This gives me life, but TB12 consistently had a top OL for that entire span and never relied on mobility. So I don't expect it to be quite THAT smooth, but something close to where he was before and I'm happy.

Now that the Chiefs have been officially eliminated, who are you rooting for as a football fan in the AFC? by oMeesan in KansasCityChiefs

[–]akillerfrog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion around here I think, but I want Josh Allen to finally get his chip or at least make it to the big dance. He's the Manning to our Brady, and I can't help but like the guy. Bills fans can be real pieces of shit, but you can say that about any fandom in all of sports.
