Were you a small child or just a wuss?

I was 16. maybe i was spoiled by my Packers and Bucks successes in the late 60's and early 70's.

You implied that loss did not hurt, but that other did...like what 2003?

Were you a wuss on that one?

1975 was a great season. Game 7 was kind of a painful way to end it. We had a 3-0 lead in that game. Spaceman threw an ill-advised eephus to Tony Perez that made it 3-2. Rose knocked in the tying run and Morgan knocked in the winner.

Johnson screwed up royally by hitting for Jim Willoughby with 2 out in the bottom of the 8th. Willoughby had been untouchable to that point. My 17 year old self said it at the time and my 60 year old self still does.

Wasn't Willoughby one of the Buffalo Heads?

Johnson certainly had his favorites and his black sheep.

The Buffalo Heads formed when Zimmer was manager I believe.
