    From 1999: Green Bay at San Fransisco in an NFC Wild Card game. The 'Niners rallied for a 30-27 Victory on Steve Young's 25 yard TD pass to Terrell Owens with eight seconds left. Young finished with 3 TD passes, while Brett Favre threw for 292 yards and two scores.


    This game will be shown on ESPN2 at 7pm tonight EST time.

    Greatest game? It would be except for the horrendous call that really set up the finish.

    But they never show that, just the TO catch. Grrr....

    Wait, what happened, I should be able to watch it, unless that part interferes with the Maryland game.

    That was the game that Jerry Rice fumbled the ball away and we recovered, but they reversed the call calling it an INC pass or down by contact, I don't remember which. So instead of having the game won which we did, they were able to go ahead and score the winning TD. Yeah, I'm still bitter. :newlaugh:

    Great game, I still remember watching TO catch that live. After that catch it was pretty evident TO was going to dominate eventually. Too bad he turned into an ego maniacal pr**k.

    It's only 90min, so I'm not 100% sure if its going to be highlights, or they're cutting out the commercials, so I'm not 100% sure.

    truelife 6-0 is our goal

    was a great game and the rice so called fumble hardly makes up for all the botched calls in alot of great games between these two teams... This was also the play that turned terrel owens into T.O

    I remember my dad telling me the game was over at least 50 different times in that 4th quarter..and I kept telling him we had it..I even called the last play to TO...when Young slipped all I heard was "FREAK, ITS OVER!"...then silence..stunned disbelief...except for me yelling at him for not having faith in Young..lol
