To this day, Lett believes he would have received a game ball if only he had waited until after the game to get his hands on it. Instead, he inexplicably tried to fall on the ball near the Dallas goal line after the Cowboys had blocked a 41-yard field-goal attempt by Pete Stoyanovich with 15 seconds remaining. The ball squirted out of Lett’s hands and Miami’s Jeff Dellenbach recovered at the Cowboys’ 1-yard line. That set up Stoyanovich’s 19-yard field goal on the game’s final play, which gave the Dolphins a 16-14 victory.
“That’s the play that always sticks out in my mind,” Lett said. “The funny part is, I was having one of my best games ever as a Cowboy. I really think that was the day I arrived in the NFL. I was dominating people. But, of course, all anybody remembers is that play. I can laugh about it now.
You still won the Super Bowl that year anyway so you should make your peace with it.
Come on, that’s funny. ^_^

I wonder if Larry’s review of the facilities will include both the mens and the ladies facilities?

When I’m having a bad day, Larry always cheers me up.
All Larry left out was the foundation of “Big Tabacco!” Slaughter, feast and a smoke.
I thought Thanksgiving was founded as a holiday so the Cowboys could break my heart every year just before I fall face first into a pumpkin pie.

P.S. The Avenger still holds it against Farrah for rooting for Miami in ‘93. F*&^ing Leon Lett.
Avenger - Leon Lett has let it go, so should you.
