    Kenyon Martin breaks his leg int he Conference USA Tournament. I'm taking a huge step here, but I honestly believe that team was Final Four at worst with him healthy. Instead they lose in the second round to Tulsa, coached by Bill Self.

     

    That was my first full year getting into sports. Yikes.

     

    If Martin doesn't get hurt, they probably place the Bearcats as the 1-seed in the Midwest, with Mich. State moving to the 1-spot in the South. Then, you probably get Florida-MSU and Cincinnati-Wisconsin in the National Semifinals that year, with MSU and Cincy facing off in the title game.

    I’ve had a few dark days with my teams, but there’s only been one thing that was bad enough to make me give up on my team, and an entire league: the day LeBron signed in LA. I haven’t watched a minute of an NBA game since. While my interest in the NBA had greatly diminished after Kobe retired and the whole season becoming, more or less, simply there to decide which teams Golden State and Cleveland would beat in the playoffs, I had started to get attached to the young guys on the Lakers who were beginning to show promise during the 2017-18 season. But then they signed LeBron and all of a sudden all the guys I had grown to like were simply dumped so he could bring in his friends. It made me realize the NBA isn’t a league where players are even remotely loyal to their teams or fans, they'd rather catch the next flight to a “super team” to play with their friends instead of working to build up the team they’re currently on.

    I know this won’t be popular, but I don’t care. Just my opinions that I needed to get off my chest. 

     

    Good point. The NBA has been messed up for years. I think it started in the 90's when it became the Michael Jordan league, and the NBC stood for National Bulls Corporation. I know that everyone loves MJ, but I think that nobody (outside of David Stern) has been worse for the game.

    I'm with you bro.

     

    Also the 1993 103-win Giants. Losing to the Dodgers on the last day of the season and finishing 1 game back of the Braves. Salomon :censored:ing Torres!!!! Thank you Dusty for that!!!! Damn you expansion Rockies!!! You couldn't beat the Braves one damn time!!!

     

    Also, the idiot Padres are to blame. Trade McGriff to an AL team instead of Atlanta, you idiots!

    Had Dallas beaten the Giants, I would've felt majorly confident that Dallas would beat Green Bay. Favre had never beaten Dallas in Texas Stadium, and they had a late season, heavyweight matchup that Dallas won (and they rang Favre's bell).

     

    Would Dallas had beaten New England? I don't know. Considering how the Giants also lost and triumphed in the rematch; Dallas would've still had a chance. They wouldn't have been as huge an underdog as New York was (considering they were the NFC's #1 seed), but they'd still be treated as massive underdogs.

     

    However, considering their matchup early in the season, that New England came in and stomped Dallas, Dallas would've not been able to keep up.

     

    Who knows what would've happened? All I know is; it's all Patrick Crayton's fault.

     

    In Dallas's matchup with NE that season, I think they were down by four going into the fourth quarter, and then they got stuffed on a 4th and 1, right?

  5. That Super Bowl was going to be the continuation of the new Rams dynasty....... or so we thought.

    Til Tom Terrific and Adam "Automatic" Vinateri destroyed the Greatest Show on Turf Dynasty and instead crafted a Patriot Pat dynasty becoming the 2nd team ever to win 3 Super Bowls in 4 years (1993, 1994 and 1996 Dallas Cowboys).

    Like the 90's Cowboys, I don't consider a team that only wins three Super Bowls a dynasty. A nice run, but not a dynasty.

    The Pats were closer than Dallas to being one, though. They went to two more Super Bowls after they won their three, but lost. Dallas never went back again.

    As for the Rams, what hurt them was that loss, and poor draft day decisions. Trung Canidate? Robert Thomas? Jimmy Kennedy? WTF?

    The Rams and Ravens should have been the dominant teams of the 00's, but Baltimore couldn't get a QB, and the Rams had too many beer kegs and crack in the war room on draft day.

  6. As a former Sun Devil, I love Osweiler. I do. But he's nowhere near NFL Starter material. No way.

    I wouldn't go that far. He hasn't looked that bad this preseason.

    And, Matt Moore had a 60% completion rating with 16 TD's, 9 INT's, and almost 2,500 yards passing as the starter for 12 games three years ago in Miami. The Rams should ask Miami about him. Definite upgrade over Shaun Hill.
