Pinch run Eric Byrnes for Jeremy Giambi in game 3 of the '01 ALDS; no sliding necessary

If Giambi slides, he's out by even more.

Coach Ditka, Superbowl XX--I'd have kept Walter Payton in until he scored a touchdown. I still hate Ditka for this.

If he slides, he gets around the tag.

And Byrnes make it standing up, halfway back to the bench before the ball gets there.

The decision to keep interim coach Steve Lavin on for SEVEN FREAKING YEARS!!!! That is one coaching decision that will always live in infamy in the hearts and minds of Bruin fans.

Here's not the biggest, but an interesting one. Benching McNabb in the 4th quarter of this year's Superbowl.

This is just totally stupid, and I'm tired of hearing this crap. Are you a Bears fan? They won the goddamn Superbowl and you're bitching about who's scoring touchdowns? By the way, Payton played like total [censored] that game, turning it over on the first series and running for 61 yards on 22 carries; he was the only guy on the Bears who didn't play well.

When Perry scored, the game was already a blowout. You're pissed because Ditka didn't decide to start delegating touchdowns to those "deserving," and instead starting playing the backups? I love Walter Payton, but faulting Ditka for not caring who scores is just moronic. It's good that he didn't care. Instead he was focused on winning the game.
