Anyone else thinking of 9/10/01 right about now?

Night game, in Denver, Invesco (nee Sports Authority) Field.

I don't actually remember much about that game but the result and the Shaun Williams hit on McCaffrey. Because of what came next. And we were never the same again.
I wasn't until you just mentioned it

but obviously have strange memories of that night like everybody else, mainly centered on the next morning.
I remember it as a depressing night

Was still living at my parents, we had post SuperBowl season slump written all over that team.We couldn't stop them on D and I don't think Kerry had a good game.Ed McCaffery getting his leg broken badly on a monster hit. Went to bed pissed off and showed up at our office early the next morning in a foul mood.

The Rodney Williams punt always bugs me. Because when I see it, I can't help but remember that Randall Cunningham (of all people) had a punt against us that went even farther.
I remember walking out of my hotel in Denver around 9:30 AM

And seeing 30+ people staring at the TV in the lobby with no one saying anything. I was there on a Job site and went to the game the night before. My Hotel was a couple of miles away from many of the BBWC posters who stayed where the team was staying in the Tech Center.

I met a few of BBWC users who migrated to BBI that week. It still is an eerie feeling to this day
I did think of that...

...9/11 I tuned in to listen to talk radio about the Giant loss in Denver - instead, I heard the WTC tragedy unfold live on Imus.
I talked about that with my wife last night...

I was thinking about how the Giants were coming off the SB loss, how we were opening the new stadium in Denver, and how pissed I was about the loss. I kept thinking about the holds the Denver OL got away with.

I was living in Colorado at the time and hosted a party at my house with a bunch of Denver fans. Was feeling sorry for myself all night - rewatched the game in the morning and when it was over, remembered there are things in life far more important that football.
