Who was at this game?

As if we don't have enough Doom n Gloom around here... then you bring up the ghosts of Christmas past...
'Tis the Season....

 

I was at that game... and the heart breaker a week later.

Those were the last two games I saw at Shea... Fun times!

 

I was there, but my memory of games was suspended after Supe III

 

I was at both. I enjoyed one much more so than the other.

ALMOST witnessed the greatest NFL playoff comeback of all time.

 

I was at the wildcard game. Oy. I need a maalox.

 

The late Dodger great Vin Scully returning to his old stomping grounds to announce a Jets' game. The most memorable part of this game was sack exchange giving Packer QB Lynn Dickey a certified beating. A week later, on a wet and cold day at Shea, it was a Richard Todd last second interception deep in Buffalo's end which ended up beating the Jets in the AFC WC game. The Bills stunning 24-0 first quarter lead turned out to be too much of a hole for the Jets to dig out of.

And so this is where we are 40 years later: like some social outcasts having to beg the cool crowd for an invitation to their big dance. Gotta love progress...

 

Quite a few of us were there it seems, was that the start of the downward spiral

 

Once the needle goes in it never comes out.
