If you could reverse one coaching decision...

If you could reverse one coaching decision - any sport, any year - what would it be?

I'd go with game 7 of the 2003 ALCS when Grady Little kept Pedro in despite the fact that his tank was on E.
If Pedro comes out, I think we close out the game, win the World Series, repeat in 2004, and start talking about the possibility of a Red Sox dynasty this year.

(has anyone ever used Red Sox and dynasty in the same sentence? Looks weird, but has a nice ring to it)

Every instance that Nick Smith was put on a basketball court during his carrer.

Honorable mention for every instance in which Nick Smith was not removed immediately after shooting a 3.

1998 - Vikings-Falcons NFC Title Game. There's no way Denny's taking a knee to end the first half on my watch, not in a game that big.

The karma from that move carried over and led to Gary Anderson's first missed figgie ALL YEAR.

Have Rick Pitino put someone on the inbounds man during the Kentucky Duke game in the final four for the desperation Christian Laettner shot in 1992.

3 years in a row =/= dynasty

But I would say bunt on Schilling in game 6 of 2004.

Don't let Kerry Wood pitch two innings a half hour after he threw a 140 pitch complete game back in High School. This is said to be where all his shoulder/arm problems started.

I would make it so that Coach Nickerson has Rifleman take a knee against Walnut Heights.

If that happens, we win the game, and I don't have to make as many "Right Moves" to play college football.

Have Jim Fregosi not bring in Mitch Williams for any game in the 93' NLCS or World Series.

You do realize that while your gimmick account is funny, it's spelled "Stef," not "Steph." I'm not sure if it's more sad that you made this mistake or I that noticed.

Have Perkins play more in the Celtics-Pacers series. Only because the one you did was taken.
