        Debacle in Seattle

        Debacle Definition

        dictionary.search.yahoo.com
        n. noun
        • A sudden, disastrous collapse, downfall, or defeat; a rout.
        • A total, often ludicrous failure.
        One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

            How in the hell does an NFL head coach not see what any fat, slobbering Packer fan on a couch has seen for the last 6 years? McCarthy deserves considerable questioning on his choice to keep this moron around so long.

              There are lots of good words to start with: Debacle, Mirage, Meltdown, Giveaway, Surrender Monkey, Collapse

              The trick is to make something memorable, or a nice ring.

                        The name needs to incorporate the willful nature of the collapse. the premature turtle-shell, submissive dog-rolling-on-it's-back, attempt to run out the clock. the misplaced, premature confidence that the game was won. The concentrated concatenation of bungling incompetence. The catatonic immobility brought on by a stunning and seemingly instantaneous turn of events. The totally incongruous, inexplicable capture of momentum by a team that just threw a catastrophic interception. I think Burnett's slide epitomizes what happened, Vince's POV aside.

                        "The Slide" encapsulates the loss for me, but is not quite catchy enough and doesn't tell the whole story.

                        "Seattle slide" gives you more information, but makes it sound like seattle was the team that slid.

                            FYI - Cleveland sports radio guys unanimously agreed that the Packer loss was worse than any single playoff loss suffered by the Browns. Worse than "The Drive," worse than "The Fumble." Worse than "Red Right 88." They were quick to add that because GB has had so much sustained success, GB has nothing to complain about - Cleveland still has exclusive rights for weeping and gnashing of teeth over tragic playoff futility.
