Go back and watch them om Youtube...I do once in a while.
They still hurt.
1976...At the "Frozen Tundra" in Minnesota. Dempsey's blocked FG, freezing outside and Rams lost another shot to go to the SB.
1977...The "MUD" Bowl in the Coliseum. Finally had the Vikings in SoCal warm weather. NOPE! It rained for 3 days straight and all gameday as well. Turned the beautiful green grass to a field of mud.
I was 12, and devastated after those 2 games...Vikings and Cowboys kept our Rams from a few SB's back in those days.
I have to admit, the NFL back in those days was AWESOME!
