I'm your huckleberry.

Superfarce 50 was the biggest joke in sports history. I counted FIVE games that year blatantly swung by blown calls to get them that 1 seed INCLUDING the first and only time time I've ever seen NE ****ed by the refs in a playoff game

Pardon me, but that raises the obvious question -- why not state that in the first place? Do you think everyone else is a mind-reader or what? Do you think your initial response to me made any sense? My sentence that I typed made perfect sense & it was this:

"Quoted for 100% TRUTH. Notwithstanding, there's more to that still that can be discussed, if the notion strikes those of us that are in the know regarding what transpired in 1996-98."

Please explain -- what part of that didn't make sense to you? I'd be happy to provide any detailed explanation or clarity that you may wish for.



My sentiments exactly regarding you & anyone else. Notwithstanding, as a courtesy, I do try to make it point to clarify where I'm coming from (and admittedly I'm not always successful) in an effort to remove any doubt.



That's easily explainable. I registered in 2010, but have not frequented these forums since 2010 because I was occupied with frequenting sites like ChiefsCrowd and others, but Chiefs crowd has become somewhat defunct in the present day.



News flash: Anyone can say what they want, at any time, to you. They don't need your permission. You'd do well to get on board with that reality. And did the thought occur to you that your initial response came across as "talking shit"?

"If the notion strikes those of us that are in the know", LOL. WTF? Pretty much everyone here, besides you, knows the reference "assphincter says what" and it isn't talking shit. I do just fine on this forum and in life man. I don't need your confirmation one way or the other. Besides, nothing I said would make one think I'm a donk fan. FFS. You are thin skinned. You might thicken up, it'd do you well on this forum

Yes, and I dont blame you, because you have no leg to stand on. Would be different if you could refute the facts. So, your stance is completely understandable.

Did Denver not violate the salary cap to afford elite players they otherwise couldn't have acquired on legit salaries? Yes or no?

NE got screwed vs. Osweiler in the regular season too...go back at look at the 4th quarter of that game...and the drive extending flags.

There were new articles about it...

He doesnt have to answer...the NFL already did that for him by docking them draft picks a fining them a million....which was a lot in 1998.

They cheated the cap, got caught and were punished...end of story.

NFL couldnt go back and replay those seasons....so the Donks have fake trophies as a result.

No Davis...no SB run. Period.

It would be a much bigger controversy in the internet age...and the punishment would be more severe.

If a team was caught greasing their jerseys in 2024...enough the game had to stop in the post-season? They would be disqualified...and forced to forfeit.

here was one from Boomer Esiason...

"While there were no "inadvertent whistles" in this one, there were plenty of flags that left players and fans alike shaking their heads. Two questionable flags hurt the Patriots in the fourth quarter: An offensive pass interference on Rob Gronkowski that negated a 10-yard gain on third-and-5, and a defensive holding on safety Patrick Chung that wiped out a sack for the New England defense that would have had the Broncos facing a third-and-goal from the 15-yard line."

Pats were undefeated...and Donks had no chance at HFA if they lost. They were down 14 points in the 4th...Chiefs would have won the division.

I'm not in the know about that. I googled it and is appears to be a betting platform. I DON'T bet on games.

Ah yes, the lone game in all of NFL history when blown calls impacted the outcome.

The flag on that one wasn't thrown by the official who was closest to where Gronk caught the ball, it was thrown by the ref standing behind the QB. You knew right there that the fix was in & the game was being stolen from NE.

Here’s something from a more recent AFC Championship game where fans were screaming about something similar with the lack of calls or blown calls by the refs. On mobile or I would imbed it properly.

You reap exactly what you sow & what you're seeing nowadays is a byproduct of what transpired in 1997-98 with the Donkeys & opening the floodgates to what you're seeing happen in the current day.

I’m just pointing out that every year … shit happens in games and half the fans are upset about it. Take your high and mighty bullsh, turn it sideways and shove it up your arse. Opening the floodgates… get out of here with that nonsense.

Except it isn't nonsense -- it's based on fact and overwhelming evidence -- much of which has been posted repeatedly in this thread. As for the truth hurting your feelings, go cry everybody a river about it.

No tears here, bud. Just pointing out something similar to what you and others were talking about. Essentially the same thing happened in both games, no?
