OT: Has There Ever Been a Worse Beat Than This?!

[DaveHuskiesFan]

Back Story: Ultra competitive fantasy football league. Im up 17.57 points going into MNF with him having Arian Foster. Arian Foster scores with 2 minutes left in the 3rd Quarter to get to 17.2 points, only needing 4 more yards to give him the win. He doesn't touch the ball the entire 4th quarter. I win.

Fast Forward to today.

Stat Correction.

Alfred Morris rushed for 4 more yards then they said he did. He wins, getting exactly the 4 yards he needed. I lose 103.44-103.47.

Thats pretty bad. Tops mine. Mine was a regular season game. I had McNabb, he throws a hail mary interception on the last play of the game in the endzone in a game where they were down multiple scores. I missed the playoffs cause of that game. Yeah yours has got to be worst I've ever seen.

I can sympathize. I'm in the championship game in 2007, Brian Westbrook breaks away from Dallas. Clear touchdown ahead. He takes a knee at the 1 to kill the clock. With the 6 from the td, I would have won the championship and a nice sum of money. I lose by 4.

FWIW, as a football fan, I get why he took the knee.

I'm a UConn sports fan today. Now that's a tough beat.

I won a few years ago when Michael Vick took two knees to run out the clock (maybe THIS is why PP didn't take a knee!!). Negative four rushing yards knocked him below a threshold and I won by a point.

Before fantasy football we played the "card". You picked at least 4 teams and if you got them all right you win. A lot of us played two cards a weekend, one with our 4 best picks paying 10-1 and one with 10 picks that payed 300-1. Normal bet was a dollar. My roommate has won 9 games and all he needs is for the Giants to run out the clock to win the game. Joe Pisarcik takes the snap, fails to make the handoff to Larry Csonka and fumbles the ball. Herm Edwards picks up the ball and runs it in for a TD. Eagles win and he goes 9-10 on the card and only wins $30.00 instead of $300.00. Back then $300.00 was a lot of money. Play is now referred to as the Miracle at the Meadowlands!

When I used to run a book...this guy had lost about 15 days in a row on NBA games. Day 16 he takes the Knicks. Big $. Trying to come back. +17 against the Bulls. Bulls are up 15 with :10 to go and drop a meaningless 3 at the buzzer to win by 18. I laughed so hard I nearly pissed myself.
