TRAGIC! BEWILDERING! You had to watch it to truly understand. Down 4 with 2 minutes left in the game, Seahawks fans were praying for a repeat of the NFC championship game, a victory they had pulled off in miracle fashion. A beautiful reception for a gain of 31 to start the possession renewed and increased our hopes. Anxiety set in as the next 2 plays contributed nothing. Then there it was, Wilson let one fly and the most fortuitous bobbled reception ever put us within reach. We could feel it, taste it, the Lombardi trophy would be ours. "Beast Mode" advanced the ball to the one yard line and we knew that this man, who had carried us here in consecutive years, our superstar, would come through no doubt. Nothing would stop him from scoring, we knew that if they just kept handing him the ball he would find a way to cross the plane of the goal line. Well, if you don't know what happened, you should look it up and watch it.... Tragic, bewildering! We sat there in stunned silence, sick.
