This shyt hurts. Fortunately(or unfortunately) I've been here time and time again.. Between all the heartbreaking game seven's the rockets have provided me and the bullshyt seasons from Jerruh and the cowboys. i should be numb to this,

But this one feels really bad. Like it sapped some omy energy for life and efeintely sports. We shoulsve been the. There has never been a loss worse than this in history. That's not hyperbole. No team ever came back from more than four. No team ever came back from six, period. WE HAD IT WON. Jesus god, one strike. One pitch. One groundout. One popup. One fly. We were ahead two runs. One damn pitch. Just one. One.
This was, without question, in the entire history of baseball, the worst loss ever. There has never been a collapse like this. The team led the game before they'd even had an out. They led the game for 26 outs. They had a 6-0 lead. They'd won the night before in one of the best wins ever. They knocked the Cards SP out in the third.


Nothing beats game 86 game 6. That sh*t was inconceivable.:mindblown: Down two bottom of the ninth two outs nobody on. :ohhh: Kevin Mitchell was in the clubhouse on the phone making flight reservations when somebody had to run back and get him to pinch hit. :pachaha:

That Game 7 was the first time I saw an athlete cry (Wade Boggs)

ok using da term 'shyt' may have been a lil too strong
but my meaning is 100% -WHY do baseball heads need to belittle other sports when boosting theirs....
real talk -it really comes off very insecure :manny:

No one is belittling any other sport though, where do you get this shyt :mindblown: @ your stupidity

its just not the same as other sports. you could just feel the ether building, as dude walked a guy on like 8 pitches, then walked another on like 8 pitches, then the game is tied "we can still get out of it and hit again" then the runner steals second without a throw, then they take the lead, then you have to sit there hoping your team does something miraculous but you know they aint doing a damn thing, then you are going home thru mad traffic and a shytload of salty ass fans. instead of losing on a last minute td drive which takes like 3 real time minutes, or a last second 3 pointer which is seconds, your loss is built up for like a fukking hour while you blow the lead, then you know you aint doing shyt in the bottom of that inning. just an hour of bitter beer face as a fan before the loss is even official

The feeling when your team is slowly blowing the lead :sadcam: and no move they make seems to Work as momentum is building to a collapse ... Or when your team completes the comeback :ooh::gladbron::mj:

I hated the Sox....so I rooted for the Mets to win in 86.

By far....that comeback with two outs.....

it's definitely the slow death aspect of it. at least a buzzer beater or a big play in football puts you away quickly...in baseball, especially if you're at home, you can just get tortured for an entire inning.

2 outs, top of the 8th...your star pitcher is 2 strikes away from finishing the inning and your squad is up 3 - opposing team has shown no signs of life all game :datazz:

3 - 0

*opposing team hits double* - :youngsabo: <"that's hit number 3. whatever, we got this, let's do it."

*next batter hits a dribbler that bounces off the glove of the 2nd basemen...man on 2nd scores on the error* :upsetfavre:

3 - 1

*scrub pinch hitter comes in...triples on first pitch. guy from first scores* :merchant: 3-2...man on third.

opposing team: :cook:

*crowd gets quiet...manager walks out to the mound to pull the pitcher...puts in reliever that you've never felt comfortable about.*

*first pitch...double to right field* :damn: 3-3

*next hitter...single to left* :why: 4-3

*manager comes out again...puts in lefty to strike out opposing teams star right handed player*

*star player immediately homers to left* :bryan: 6-3

*next two batters get on base on a walk and a single. 39 year old guy pinch hitting in the 7 spot doubles* 7-3

:to:

*pitcher finally gets out of the inning on a pop-fly, and you look at the scoreboard*

:wow:

you know what, I might agree..at least when it comes to choking. game 6 2002 :scusthov:


and yeah I think lots of it has to do with teams in other sports not being able to score in bunches
in football or basketball you'll choke the lead one score/basket at a time. yet you can see the opportunity because you get the ball back and all that.
in soccer/hockey its a bit more complicated but still, you only score once at a time.

in baseball you can be up 4 runs and then be one strike away from winning the game and then have an epic choke. and you cant do shyt about it until youre out of the half of the inning.

Baseball loses
Football (last second flukes or huge comebacks)
A NBA player who is pretty much unguardable (Hakeem vs the Knicks back in the mid 90's)

Would all rank in that order for me in regards to "sports fandom losses".
