The Old Games Thread...

I thought it was Free that got called for the hold.

No, it was Alex Barron.

Didn't we cut him just a few games later? @bbgun

Nope, the stiff we traded for Carpenter.

Wiki says he was on the roster all year.

No wonder I thought he was cut -- he stayed on the roster but never played a single down after the Redskins game.

I was at that game. That was when I quit smoking, believe it or not.

So some good did come out of that night.

I was there too. What a fiasco, ruined Dez’ debut. I tell you, Fuck Jason Garrett and Fuck Tashard Choice.

I started to celebrate on that last play, then a Washington fan leans over my shoulder and quietly says “Penalty, holding. The game is over”

Man, Fuck that fan too.

He should've been cut, but that would have been embarrassing to the Joneses. Would have made it too obvious that the guy they traded for was a total stiff who couldn't play at all.

Wade was a few games later.

Wade was a few games later.

That game was when my hatred for Garrett began. I remember he ducked the media for a couple of days so he wouldn't have to answer why he made such a braindead play call in that situation. Instead he let Wade take the heat for it. Just the beginning of that orange turd showing his true colors.

Yeah pretty much the same thing here... I was in the cheap seats right above the endzone where that happened... and everyone started pointing to the flag and laughing. FML that was a miserable walk out of that stadium. Almost as bad as the 2006 game.

Props. But how the hell did you stop smoking that night?

I crushed my pack of cigarettes into the street when we were walking back to the Metro station. Talk about a long walk made even longer.

Decided right there I was done smoking after 23 years and haven’t had one since that day.

But the next day was the start of your 23-year drinking binge.

Haha yeah. Nope, I gave that up in my early twenties.

No smokes, no booze, no fun.

You make me sound so Hostile.

Way you were raised?

Down to bare feet and backwards baseball caps.

He may be correct on this one.

Chaz Green is a good answer, but I think I'd go with Babe Laufenberg against the Eagles in 1990. That performance is forever etched into my nightmares.
