Jive Five Call for Contenders: The Worst Moment of the 2009 Season - Voting Time!

 

350__1_604092-1_medium

via www.getprice.com.au

I am not, I repeat, I AM NOT masochistic.

Oh, wait maybe I am.*

Lots of outstanding competitors for the worst moment of the 2009 Houston Texans season.  Here are your five finalists.  Which one moment this year makes you want to break down at your desk and weep immediately upon thinking about it.  The finalists, in chronological order, are:

1. "Nobody is covering Chris Johnson!"

2. Chris Brown gives Jacksonville their first present.

3. Shankapotamus misses against the BE-SFs, failing to send the game into overtime.

4. Chris Brown != George Blanda.  Or even Dan Pastorini, for that matter.

5. Dunta Robinson for his 2009 body of work.

Now, yes, I can understand it's cheating creating a Dunta category and not one for either Chris Brown or Kris Brown.  There just seemed to be overwhelming enthusiasm to salute Dunta.  Vote below!

* You gotta take the bad with the good, and there was a whole lotta good this year as we'll soon see.

I'm a little mad at myself

for not tagging KB Shankapottamus before you did, simply because I laugh every damn time I see that commercial. Well played, and that is now his official name as far as I’m concerned. tGC, add it to the glossary, please.

Oh, and I voted for Brown’s J’ville fumble simply because that was, iirc, right after he’d been named “GOALLINE BACK WITH AMAZING GOALLINE ABILITY TO GET THE BALL ACROSS THE GOALLINE” over Stevie Wonder. Oh, irony, you can be a cruel bitch.

I always assumed "You're The Reason God Made Oklahoma" would be some sort of country music diss track. Live and learn, I guess.

Was it a tGC original?

It's from

the e*trade talking baby commercial, though. The one where he’s playing golf. Regardless, I fully endorse that name for KB.

In other news, Chris Johnson’s TD dance in that video makes me want to go back in time and give his mother a hysterectomy with a chainsaw.

In any event, it will soon be added to the updated glossary.

No surprise, Chris/Kris Brown in the lead with this one

I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but you appear to be unarmed.

I voted for Kris Brown

Because at that particular moment, I felt asbsolutely ILL.

by WhiskeyR on Jan 8, 2010 11:20 AM CST reply actions  

Its only fair to give Dunta his own catagorie

Becuase there weren’t a whole lot of specific plays that could match up with the suckitude of the first 4 moments, just an entire year of fuck ups and sucking. Although there is the time he put that hit on Addai and was like “wat I’m da bomb everyone look at me running around like a moron” and Manning was like “lol wtf you are running around like a moron” and then they snapped the ball and no one was ready and then I wanted to kill myself.

Yeah, I just added that play to the commentary on the previous post

That was such a clownboy moment. Like something the Raiders would do. It was sick. I like your translation of what they were thinking.

That play happened right in front of my seats. It was awful.

by StephS on Jan 9, 2010 9:32 AM CST up reply actions  

I vote for Kris Brown

Because that moment made me sicker than the Rosencopter. I literally was ill for several days after that event.

Fuck you, Kris Brown. Fuck you all to hell.

Kris Brown did make me violently ill...

But the Chris Brown shotput pass made me dumber by watching it.

Missing a kick…it happens…..but shotputting a ball when you’re going down and you’re a running back……it makes my head hurt.

by TexansDC on Jan 8, 2010 9:14 PM CST up reply actions  

I went with the CB pass

But… I still say the PI call against Frenchy deserves more attention

I suppose if we made a list

of all the injustices(atrocities?) commited against the texans that would be something like #2.

As a Slaton fantasy owner, I agree with that

I watched a number of Texans games, and was at the Buffalo game where Slaton (briefly) fumbled away his job…brutal.

I still think the Garcon PI was one of the worst PIs I’ve ever seen.

(Good season, by the way. Hopefully next year, you guys can pull it together just that little bit more, particularly in the secondary.)

Go Pats!

Thanks, ummmmm, Female

A lot of us here appreciate the Pats for actually playing us, unlike the Bungles and the Dolts (twice) who folded like Superman on laundry day.

karma is a bitch

I very much look forward to the Jets beating both the teams that laid down to them… first the Bungles, then the Fat Humps in Indy. The only downfall to this premise? It may lead us to a Fav-ruh v. Marmalard Super Bowl. God help us all.

by grungedave on Jan 9, 2010 10:24 AM CST up reply actions  

Don't forget...

Marmalard is coached by Norv. That’s always good for a pre-Super Bowl playoff loss.

so uh, I don't like the alternative

That leaves the Patriots in the Super Bowl. I prefer Marmalard.

Shit, is there ANYONE I can enjoy watching in the playoffs this year?!?!?

This was how I felt, too.

Most of these were poor execution

The Chris Johnson play came early in the season, plus it was still relatively early in that game.

This one had it all: the game scenario, the execution, the call.

Lined up for an easy kick. MNF for all the world to see. Shanks FTW… or the L, however you want to look at it.

I still gotta vote for CJ. How you don’t cover their best player is just beyond my belief.

from wikipeida
The Jets finished 9–7, but missed the playoffs, in part because of a somewhat curious call by Parcells against the Detroit Lions. Parcells had Leon Johnson throw a halfback option, which was intercepted.

They went 12-4 the next year. Interesting… very interesting.

www.manningface.com

by nolander on Jan 8, 2010 2:20 PM CST reply actions  

At least Parcell's call

made sense on one level — Leon Johnson was an All-American high school QB who converted to RB at UNC. Chris Brown is, and always has been, a RB.

Doonta… and until he proves to me that he can play football at a professional level again I will continue to pronounce his name like it is spelled and not like Dante the great comedic poet. I mean come on he turned down a $23 paycheck instead gets an almost $10 mil paycheck then gets played like a junior high schooler on a Big XII team. Hey Doonta, PAY ME!!!!
