Remember this: Monday Night Meltdown, Nov.16, 1998
I randomly came across this today, just reminds me of how badly I want to punch Shannon Sharpe in the face. Only Bronco is history who's face actually looks like a Bronco.
5. Monday Night Meltdown, Nov.16, 1998 The Broncos were cruising toward an easy 30-7 victory in Kansas City when Derrick Thomas, the late linebacker, was the culprit in one of the most infamous implosions in "MNF" history. Five times in Denver's final touchdown drive the Chiefs drew personal foul penalties, three of them by Thomas, each one blatant and intentional and each, if you believe him, inspired by Broncos tight end Shannon Sharpe. Sharpe said he had memorized the phone number of Thomas' girlfriend, and that he was reciting it number by number across the line of scrimmage. "I knew at that particular time, at that stage of the game, I could say some things to him and it would bother him," Sharpe said. Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt declared his organization "disgraced," head coach Marty Schottenheimer was reduced to tears, and Thomas was suspended for the next game. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m...1/ai_n10010183 |
One of the most memorable moments in Martys tenure at KC... This is #1... With0ut Marty and his thugs, we would never be able to relive this Marty Masterpiece...

Marty not only embarrased himself, but his lack of disclipline in his football team embarrased the Hunts, Franchise, the fans and the whole NFL.... |
As much as I hate to admit it, reciting your opponent's girlfriend's number is a pretty good idea to get under an opposing player's skin.

I had turned the game off by then in total disgust. Glad I missed it.

I kept hoping he'd twist Sharpe's head off.
I still wish somebody would twist Sharpe's head off. :mad: |

Wayne Simmons was cut the next day. He's dead now.

I've always wondered how much of the psychological issues that night go back to the DC, Gunther instead of Marty. This game was when I first questioned Gun's abilities as a coach and leader.
