Washingtons Hail Marry

[Mike 1017]

The Bears were winning with 2 seconds to go. The video speaks for itself. I have been a Bears fan since 1963 OUCH!!       

 

WATCH: Commanders’ Jayden Daniels hits Hail Mary, stuns Bears – NBC Chicago

Saw that last night. Reminds me of the Wide World of Sports theme, "The thrill of winning and the agony of defeat".

Bears fan since 1970, I'm right there with you. Game was pretty much BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH 'til late in the 4th. I believe the term hail mary was coined after Doug Flutie threw one for Boston College back in the day.

I should have watched it. The Yankees and the Giants had bad evenings... I went to bed real early last night.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, try being a Raider fan over the last 20 years.  You'll wear out all your shoes kickin' rocks.  Here's some fun topics:

1) Draft pick reaches - Great moments in sports comedy.  There was a time when ESPN couldn't wait to see what we'd pull out of our dorsal orifice.  Their biggest concern: "Do we have tape on this guy?  I've never heard of him."

2) Coaching carousel - No experience?  You might as well apply anyway.  Are ya busy today?

3) Last Super Bowl?   We try not to tie it to a specific year and just say "It was a generation ago." 

4) Leadership? 

But I'm not bitter...

Raiders have won 3 out of 5 Super Bowls. They were the first Wild Card team to win the Super Bowl in 1980 It is so sad that the Bears celebrate the 1 and only Super Bowl that they won in 1985 -1986

Yeah but it was an awesome team. At least we didn't follow the Vikings example.

I've been a Raiders fan for almost 50 years and I definitely feel your pain. Point number 1 sums up the Raiders drafts for at least the last 30 years.
