It's All About Perspective

This from an NFL.com preview of Monday's Dolphins v. Jets game:

The Jets and Dolphins are meeting on Monday Night Football for the first time since Oct. 23, 2000, when they played one of the best games in the history of the program.



Miami had a 30-7 fourth-quarter lead at the Meadowlands before New York scored a team-record 30 points in the period to force overtime. The Jets ended up winning 40-37, the biggest comeback victory in their history.



The game, voted by fans as Monday Night Football's greatest game



I watched that game. As a Dolphins fan, I can assure you I did not vote this game as the greatest MNF game.



By the way, you may have noticed I stopped posting my weekly football picks because, well, really, who cares?

Well I remember watching that game. And I was cheering for the Dolphins as well. That game was a terrible excruciating debacle. Not as bad as the Houston Oilers collapse in the playoffs against the Bills in 1989(?). For me the best MNF game was the brilliant performance by Brett Favre after his father's death last year.
