    I know it has been 21 years ago now, but his image still comes to mind when I watch a Patriots game...especially when there is snow on the ground.

    1982 I think it was. Henderson was a convicted felon out on a work-release program. He was serving 15 years for a robbery, and he committed another one against the Dolphins that day. The snow and crap on the field was horrible. The Pats managed to get down to about the Dolphins 5 yard line, before 4th down came up and about five minutes left to play.

    Pats coach Ron Meyer told Henderson to take his plow and illegally carve a little hole so that kicker John Smith could get a good kick off. With the refs heads evidently buried in the snow too, it happened and Smith spanked the pig through for a 3-0 win.

    Hilarious....expect to probably the previous generation of the DWO.

    Previous generations of the DWO? Are you kidding me? We didn't have the game live in Danville, but I remember getting the game break highlight of what happened and I couldn't believe what happened. I couldn't believe that the NFL allowed that to happen. Getting beat is hard enough to take, but that was sickening. Don't forget that Miami missed a fg earlier in the same conditions without the snowplow.

    If you survive the Colts, your Chiefs might have their own Patriots snowstorm horror story to tell, so go ahead and laugh it up, Hosehead.

    If we can add another one then I think it will be enough to finally release my book, "Patriots snowstorm horror storys" with quotes from all your favorite people including dolfandale, blackadder, thebeef, send em back al and a special section where steelerfan reflects on the Pats 2001 season and the horror is caused with all those wasted reservations in New Orleans. Props go out to Pats37 for providing the great illustrations, my favorite photo is that of Charles Woodson sacking Brady and causing the fumble, wait, I mean incomplete pass. The horror in that particular chapter is pretty gruesome, Raider fans might want to skip past that part.

    Once I did the math and saw how many years ago that was, I decided to phrase it like that because I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings....like myself (seems like I watched that game 5 years ago). Ouch!

    I was lets see 2 years old when that went down so needless to say I didn't see it live but have seen it many times and have to laugh at it. It would never happen again but that criminal will be remebered in New England forever.

    Glenso the props go out to you man I couldn't have done it without ya. haha
