I just wanted to give you and all the Falcons fans out there my condolences. It sucks being on the wrong end of history.

Of course considering how cursed Atlanta is he'll probably end up being the best head coach of all time.
They're still a somewhat young team so they could very possibly win the Superbowl next year. This loss will sting until that happens though.

I secretly think Shanahan bet over on the 60 total points prop bet.

Your football league has a trash garbage overtime policy. It is too bad that another gridiron league next door to you doesn't have a sensible policy that has been proven to work just fine and doesn't give the game to the winner of a coin toss. Oh wait...

Seriously, I could not believe your overtime policy when it was explained to me, and I still can't believe it two days later. It's like doing sudden death (first run wins) in baseball, and flipping to decide who hits in the top of the 10th. Or it's like having a sudden death shoot-out in hockey, and flipping to see who gets first shot on goal. It boggles my mind to imagine that anyone, anywhere thinks this is a good overtime system. It's not just bad. It's farcical. The team I was cheering for didn't win, and they idn't deserve to. The better team won, so that's cool too. However, that overtime system is a total dumpster fire, and everyone who watches that league has to know it, right?
To prove I'm not the only Canuk feeling this way:
