Sometimes I wish I was too young to remember the Pats getting crushed by the Bears in Super Bowl 20. Sadly I wasn't.
yeah...
I kinda remember my mom groaning when she and my dad saw that stupid music video the Bears put out, but I didn't really comprehend football at the time....
Even at nine years old I knew the Pats didn't stand much of a chance in that game. I was kind of hoping they'd at least make a respectable showing. Dang it.
LOL
So were you old enough to suffer through the Drive and the Fumble?
vaguely :) I don't remember the drive, but I have an impression of it. I do remember the fumble though.....
My dad wasn't a Browns fan. I developed that on my own....
So you just had to suffer through the team moving to Baltimore.
I was too young to remember the Skins losing to the Dolphins (6)but I was certainly old enough to remember Marcus Allen running all over the Skins in '84 (17)..
Yeah well we've both gotten other Super Bowl wins since then.
I answer "true" to every question. How many did I get?
mainly yes....
