I had a HUGE bet on the Bills and they just scored the TD to cover with only seconds left to play. My dad calls me up and says "you got it, buddy, YOU GOT IT!". I said, "hold on, dad, they have to kick off yet"

I blamed the whole thing on my dad for jinxing me. :mj07: :mj07: Man, I gave him hell for calling me up. :mj07:

years ago, pittsburgh vs jax.... pitt already had the cover, a few seconds left, only around a 20 yard fg just because they were running out clock and had to on 4th down.

Kick is blocked by Jax no one tries to tackle and they run it back for a TD!!!!

I had a lot on that game!

Ugh!!! Thanks for making me rethink, now I have to cope again!

Early '90's OU v TX, married at the time. I had wired a phone in the garage close to the refrigerator there full of beer. Found out later when I picked my garage phone up, there was a 'ding' on an inside phone.

Doing things around the house with the wife...she was inside, I was in my/our garage....with my phone. The OU v TX game was about to kick off....

It was unusual for me to not work on a Sat., I co-managed a sports bar at the time with a brother for a brother & partners :mj07:

Placed the call, made the bet...then I found out what I wired my garage phone into....:scared

Before I even hung up, the wife flung open the door and said "I hope you lose that fucking bet":facepalm:

I did. I was beat before kickoff. Don't remember if I took TX or OU....just remember her opening the door....bad beat, bad beat....another loss.

I had the Bills as #4 in a 4-team parlay. I threw a foot stool and it stuck in my wall.

Living in Cincy at the time, I vowed to forever hate the Titans.... :cool:

Worst ever was five or six years ago..

Think the team was New Orleans.. Anyway I had them minus 3.5
They scored on a wild ass play at the end of the game. To go up by 3.. Then the phucking kicker missed the etxtra point!!!

:facepalm: That was a bad day.

Basketball game a couple years ago in MAC conference. At Buffalo against Bowling Green (I think). Anyways my team was in the dressing room not knowing time was left on clock while it was in their posssesion winning by 2 while being spotted 7. Technical was called. I lose by 8 in overtime. I know some basketball junkie has to remember it.
This year I lost an over in a game which was 45-3 at half. No scoring in 2nd half (over 54)

Not sure but i think the Franco Harris catch against Oakland in the early 70's both won the game and beat the point spread. A double "back breaker" for Oakland backers

Coach Iron Jaw on the sidelines looked like he wanted to tackle him! :facepalm:


I remember because that game cost me, also.


AND it was either the week before, or the week after that game on Monday night.........there was another horseshit ending, and I was on that one TOO! :mj07:

This game came to my mind right away too. The beat was almost as bad as watching my Badgers live stomping UNLV knowing I was heading back to the sportsbook and collect a nice payday only to have the power go out and the game called.
