when lithuania's basketball team nearly won against USA at sidney olympics, when we won against usa in athens
the 1:1 tie with italy a month or so ago, and 1:1 tie with germany couple of years ago, these are of course about football :]
edit: n of course Schumacher retirement |

When Schumi retired from F1 this Sunday.
I have been his fan for almost 12 years now. I had the opportunity to see him live and win in front of me. :D
Ok..it was the infamous 2005 Indianapolis GP. Not a good race, but nevertheless...
I will miss him. :( |

| it would have to be yugoslavia's loss to Holland in the round of 16 of the 98 WC. we were such a strong team and I know we couldve went far what with players like Mijatovic and Stojkovic. a real shame... |

mine would have to be englands loss to portugal on penalties in euro 2004. The way they came back into the match twice after going 1-0 and then from 2-1 with portugal scoring first in injury time and england scoring in like the 188th minute made me confident that they would do it on penalties.
I was wrong , england lost, i threw things and sulked the whole day.:whip: |
thats mine 2 :( i still get sad when i think about it :( :( |

definitive for me was the whole Juve match fixing scandal last year (technically the year before).
but it was the first time we got relegated (especially after being champions), stripped of 2 Serie A trophys and kicked out of Europe (probably the biggest blow because that's the only time i really got to watch my team compete).
all those years beforehand (i've been a juve fan since '95) everyone was always convinced I was just a bandwagoner. however sticking it out while they were in B proved that this was my team for life and seeing them back in A and playing like they haven't missed a heartbeat is really comforting.
but i was distraught throughout the process and really just wanted it to blow over, and not be true. of course it is true, but i think it's important to realize it's not the players fault, but the higher-ups (the management). it made me realize that after all it's not the board of directors that i support, but the colors of the club, its history, and the players who put on the kit and get out there every saturday/sunday/CL match and compete against other people.
most importantly it made me realize the players who were most important. Buffon, Nedved, Del Piero, all stayed. Bitches like Cannavaro left. Most importantly - Trezeguet stayed - a player that I was always against and felt like his heart just wasn't with the team. however he actually toughed it out, and even went through a period when he was snubbed by the France coach. now he's enjoying probably his greatest (statistically) season in the Serie A and I couldn't be happier for him and the entire squad. |

| USC epically blowing it to Texas in the 2006 Rose Bowl. Should have won that game about 60 different times, but incredibly bad decisions, a few screwy calls, and a guy named vince prevail. son of a freaking bitch. |

UF losing to Nebraska in the Fiesta bowl..62-24.. 95 season, 96 Fiesta Bowl
It wasn't so much how we lost but the way and how much.. Tommy Fraizer is still running in Arizona... at least we won it all the next year..
And for some reason I really take it hard when we lose to Auburn... the past 2 years..
I'm still a tad bitter with Mateen Cleaves on Mich St. in 2000 national championship game.. although Teddy Dupay on UF was equally a in prick..
and of course the NFC championship game Rams vs Bucs 99-00 season..
11-6 Rams... and we were about to win it with a score of 6-5..
We held the greatest show on turf to 9 points! (the safety was us being stupid, not their defense doing anything) and they made the Bert Emmanual rule after that game.. |
