[QUOTE="rmontro, post: 876348, member: 12340"] I understand why people didn't like it, but it never really bothered me. Favre was trying to do a kindness to an opponent he respected. There are many such examples in sports, but this caused a stink because it was for a record. Mark Gastineau wasn't happy about it. Sounds like Favre didn't think it through all the way. It turned out badly, but I'm sure he meant well. Just a feeling, I didn't feel in my gut that we were going to win the Super Bowl that year. I have very vivid memories of Super Bowl 32 (unfortunately). I was actually taking the loss fairly well, but the people at work gave me so much **** over it. I thought the two teams were very evenly matched, and it looked that way in the game. The Broncos just came up a bit better. I didn't think we deserved to be favored by double digits, because like I said I thought the two teams looked very evenly matched. We were so heavily favored because we were the defending champs, and because the AFC hadn't won a Super Bowl in 13 years. I took comfort in the fact that at least it was a good game, we weren't blown out. People thought our big defensive line would overwhelm Denver's smaller, cut blocking OL, but that didn't turn out to be the case. The Seattle playoff game will always be #1 for me, because the way we lost that game was absolutely disgraceful. And I can't emphasize that enough. [/QUOTE]
