Luck

I once heard a quote that went like this. "Luck is when opportunity meets preparation." Ya' know, sometimes, I think that quote is right. Then there are other times that seem like that quote couldn't be further from the truth.
Here's a thought:
Denver, meaning the Broncos, got, lucky...yep the second kind. Tonight in a 23-24 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals (who can still make the playoffs). Cincinnati managed to turn the ball over four times. You might say, they prepared and took the opportunities...err, some of these were gimmies. I think at least two of the turnovers were about as easy as hand-offs. Then in the final moments of the game, a bad snap on a PAT won Denver the game. Cincinnati proceeded to recover the onside kick and then have a flag called on them for offsides. Denver won by sheer luck tonight.
I hope and pray that through a sense of karma, that one of two things happen. A) Denver plays San Fransisco next week and gets throughly ass-raped by Frank Gore. When Rudy Johnson runs for 130 yards in a game, that's like asking Frank Gore to bring his C game and still annhiliate you. B) Watch Denver make it to the playoffs and end up playing San Diego in San Diego and relish in watching LaDanian Tomlinson make everyone on that team bawl.
Seriously, I don't think I've been this angry about any match-up in years, but this is necessary to state...
"Fuck you Denver."
