I was in Cancun watching that game.Yeah, you never leave early.
I remember sitting in a sports bar in Charlotte, NC, 1989, when the Rams were down to the Saints 17-3, at NO, with only a few minutes left in the 4th quarter and without Henry Ellard (the game where Flipper set the single-game receiving yards record). It had largely been a shitshow up to that point but nagging little voice in my head kept saying "don't leave" ... so I didn't. Then we scored two TD's in the final 3 minutes to send it into overtime and won when Lansford hit a FG. So glad I stayed. Man, their must have been a foot of air between the soles of my shoes and the ground when I walked out of the place that night and I had to turn sideways to get my smile through the door.
I could not believe the Rams came back in that game.
I was so pumped.
