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 |

The worst game in Chiefs history is the first game of the 2008 season. It wrecked the next 3+ years of the franchise.

Indeed, making Denver's victory hollow, since everyone not rooting for the Chiefs would prefer us to have Cassel under center.

Wasn't Bubby Brister the QB for that game, with a long run, maybe for a TD? |

Hell, I could have coordinated a defense with players like that. I think I remember Grunhard saying that the Chiefs basically ran one defense the entirety of the 1995 season, just because they had guys on defense that could dominate. |

And, by the way, I heard it differently. The phone number thing is only part of it. DT was dating Sharpe's former girlfriend. The way I heard it was that it was Sharpe's comment of something like, "How does my dick taste when you kiss her?"
