I was watching the Colts and Chargers play earlier.  Big game with it being the playoffs. My children wanted to watch some TV and I was wanting to get some Gathering done so I decided to DVR the rest of the game.

I finally sit down to watch the 4th quarter and it stops with 2:41 left in the game. Colts were leading 17-14 and were backed up on their own 6 yard line. I was ticked and went to the computer to find out the final was Chargers 23- Colts 17. I missed one heck of an ending.

I don't know that much about sports.... maybe a 10 will cheer you up?

I hate when that happens.

As much as I love my DVR, there are times it really makes me mad.
Kimberly Ripley Jan 4, 2009, 12:18am UTC
Bummer! I can't run a DVR and never could run a VCR either!

It went something like this... Colts tried to get out of the hole... made some progress... Manning gets sacked on the 2 yard line... Colts punt. Chargers return ball to 38... run some plays... make some headway... come up a yard short for a 1st down and kick a field goal to tie it at 17-17.

Colts get the ball with 23 seconds left... try a couple plays... then run out the clock.

OT: Chargers win the toss and elect to receive. Colts kick off and look like they'll force the Chargers to punt. Colts get called for key defensive penalty. Chargers get first down. Colts look like they'll hold the Chargers again. Colts defense gets called for a facemask. Chargers get first down. Everything is looking like the Chargers will get in fieldgoal range... Sproles takes a hand-off and runs it into the end zone. Final: 23 -17 Chargers. Sproles gets 328 yards overall.
