Biggest losses of all time from first posted 3/10/09. The Chiefs didn't lose this week but this is one of my favorite posts.

I have sad news for both of my fans. We lost last night in intramurals eliminating us from the playoffs. The green team beat us in a thrilling game that came all the way down to the last sixteen minutes or so. But If I had to lose to any team it would definately not be that team. I hate losing to them dang! And if you want to crown them you can crown them but they are who we thought they were. They are who we thought they were! AND WE LET THEM OFF THE HOOK! All kidding aside it was a good season and now its time to move on to bigger and better things like hockey intramurals. Losing last night got me thinking a little bit about some of the biggest losses that I have personally gone through in my life time. I ended up making a list of the five biggest heartbreaking losses in my life. I am sure that some of you will know what I am talking about. First off there are some honorable mention losses that didn't quite crack my top five.

Honorable Mention

Chiefs Playoff loss to the Colts in 2006: Ok that was the last playoff loss that the Chiefs had but raise your hand if you actually thought that the Chiefs were going to win that game. Nobody? Thats what I thought.

Championship game losses to Campion 2000,2001: These losses almost cracked my top five. In 2000 our loss was pretty terrible but I was a sophomore and I knew I would get back to the championship game. In 2001 we didn't have anyone who could stop Brit but dang that was close.

Dis House(my intramural squad with Dice and D Force) loss to faculty: Anytime you lose to the faculty team at Union its bad. Especially if its to Ed Mejia.

Bucknell, Bradley: Nuff said.

Chiefs lose 10-7 in playoffs vs Indy: This would have been on my top 5 but just missed the cut. Lin Elliot misses three field goals for a team that had gone 13-3 and had homefield throughout the playoffs.  He tried to hang himself after the game but when he tried to kick the chair out he missed.

Midland loses to Ozark at the Sunnydale tournament in 2000: This would probably be #6 We were winning by sixteen points at halftime when a guy who no one has ever heard from since hit three huge threes in a row to bring Ozark all the way back to win the game. We had beat Ozark earlier in the tourney by twenty and were looking to roll to the championship game to face a Broadview team that we had waxed by 14 earlier. We lost, Broadview killed Ozark. The hurt set in.

Logan vs Richard 2008 intramurals: Logan's team beat my team. Humiliating

Ok and now the moment that you all have been waiting for the top 5 worse losses of my lifetime.

#5 1991 World Series Braves lose to the Twins: Many have said that this was the best World Series of all time. As a child of 8 years it is my first remembered series. The home team won each game. My man Charlie Leibrandt gives up the homer to Puckett in game six. What made matters worse is we went to the parade for winning the National league after that and almost got murdered near underground Atlanta.

#4 KU loses to Rhode Island in Second Round of NCAA Tourney:

This was my first KU team that I followed closely. I know 96-97 was supposed to be a bigger loss but I didn't know what was goin on then. I do remember watching the Rhode Island game on sunday morning with my brother and sister. I knew the Paul Pierce led Jayhawks were going to win. But they didn't. It would be years before I would get redemption.

#3 Chiefs lose to Indy in 03 playoffs: This one was bad. If you don't remember this game neither team punted. We had the best offense in the NFL. Priest Holmes, Tony G, Trent Green breaking all the records. Dante Hall with the returns. But what do we have to show for it. NOTHIN!! I watched every Chiefs game that year at a place we called the Chiefs Zone. I have not been back there since that loss. Shook me to the core.

#2 KU loses to Syracuse in Championship game of NCAA tournament: Gerry Mcnamara. Is there anything else I need to say. That was my favorite KU team with my favorite basketball player of all time (Kirk Hinrich). Not only did we lose the game cause some kid hit a billion threes in the first half but after the game Roy Williams decides to go to North Carolina. Oh yeah and a couple years later he wins the national championship while we lose to Bucknell and Bradley. And in the game we took 30 free throws and only hit 12. Did I mention that we lost by 3. AHHHHHHHHHHHH! This game can be blamed on Michael Paradise and the quarter/elevator incident. Ask him about it.

#1 Chiefs lose to Broncos in 1997 Playoffs: You might be wondering why this is the worse loss for me in my entire life time. Well let me take you back to 1997. All year long we had played with Rich Gannon because Elvis Grbac had been injured. We went 13-3 Arrowhead was rockin every weekend. We had an amazing defense. For some reason that I don't know and have never heard about before we decide to give the ball to Grbac for the playoffs. We are playing my most hated team of all time. The Denver Donkeys. The game was a defensive struggle. I remember as the ball bounced off of Lake Dawson's hands in the endzone I knew that I would be changed forever. Earlier that day I had mentioned to my mom that I knew that we were going to win that game and that I did not see any way possible for us to lose. Since then I have never thought my team would ever win a game again. After the game we were in the car driving to a restaraunt and my sister asked me why I was crying. She didn't understand. No one ever understands.

Well that was it. Those were my top five losses. Maybe one of these days when I am feeling good or something good happens to me I will list my five best wins. But until then I am going to go cry. Have a great day!
