Green Bay at Seattle

It looks freakin cold out there. Packer up 7-0 :)

[tigerpride_08]

[piratebg]

I think it gives Green Bay the advantage. I really need the Packers to win or my 4yr old son had better learn to use a lawn mower real quick.

[piratebg]

Wow. Hasselbeck has thrown his second int of the game :eek: :eek: :eek:

Nope, I'm talking about the game where they were beating Miami at home on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys blocked the game winning/tying field goal and it rolls toward the Dolphin endzone. He tries to pick it up, drops it, Dolphins recover and score. Game Over. :doh:

[tigerpride_08]

i think i saw that one too...

The second play (ranked #3 in both ESPN lists) occurred during the very next season and was actually more serious as it resulted in a Cowboy defeat. On Thanksgiving Day in 1993, during a rare snow and sleet storm in Dallas, the Cowboys were leading the Miami Dolphins 14-13 with mere seconds remaining in the game. The Dolphins attempted a 41-yard field goal to take the lead but the kick was blocked. While most of his teammates began celebrating, Lett attempted to recover the ball but he slipped on the ice, fumbled, and the Miami Dolphins recovered it on the Dallas one yard line. There was no need to pick up the ball as the Cowboys would have automatically received possession and simply run out the clock. By touching the ball and then failing to hold onto it, Lett enabled the Dolphins to take possession and then kick another field goal. This second attempt was successful and the Dolphins won the game 16-14.

Alexander fumbles the ball and recovers, but looks like he is a little shaken up.

[tigerpride_08]

ahh it's the Madden curse...

It's extremely over-rated. Unless that is that you enjoy not being able to feel your hands or your feet. Plus, you gotta be a tuff guy and not wear any warm gear either. Extra clothing actually will make you colder. It gets wet and then you can't get dry so you freeze your hiney off.
