Subject: Most Embarrasing Moments of the 90's

I vote for the OJ trial, which had its share of crazy moments, between Mark Fuhrman's testimony and Johnny Cockroach playing the race card.

you forgot Kordel Stewart stepping out of the end zone and the "line judge" who's only responsibility is to watch the line missing this for some reason but on the last hail mary play of the game they could see through bodies and notice the pass hit the ground, then the very next season the colts knocked off the cowboys, like they should of done in the Superbowl, I think we got Steve Entmen as the #1 pick for the 91 season, I also think it was a bone head move giving up andre rison for jeff george, lets bring in a QB but give up his would be #1 receiver, go back into the 80s the colts had one season they lost all their games and had a tie

I voted Clinton and Monica Lewinksy because I looked up to Mr.Clinton growing up(he was the first rolemodel I had outside of my family), my dad campaigned for him locally both elections, and I even met the man twice. I was dissappointed with everything going on surrounding that, but after viewing my personal moral record, reflecting on everything, and reading what he has to say about it his book "My Life"(which I reccommend, its a great book), I must say that I forgive him now.

Other: The Spice Girls. Embarrassing that they made records people bought, and were given the chance to make a movie which no one saw.

Although that would rate up there, I picked the 1-15 season because they forced Rick Venturi, a coach with no NFL head coaching experience and a bad tenure coaching Northwestern, midway when Ron Meyer quit. Of all the teams that went 1-15, the Colts were the closest to go winless if not for the lucky road win over the Jets.

I voted for The Lewinski/Clinton Scandal just for the simple fact that the cops got their hands on the stained dress. I know that everyone's got their quirks, but who saves a specially stained dress? eeeeew!

I went with the Clinton scandal, because for over a year the most important thing in the country was if oral sex is actually sex, and the cigar, well I won't go there, lol.  ::) I remember when the Starr Report was published in the paper, and I was reading it, man that was like a porno story, with the president, just embarrassing for america.

I just thought of another moment I should have put on the list: Hugh Grant's dalliance with Divine Brown in 1995 (guess it didn't hurt his career too much, though)

I think that my problem is, when someone brought the topic up a while ago I just immediately remembered how much I liked it, although there were many that didnt.  Now all I can thik of is that damn cola and there is nil chance that they are going to bring it out again.

Mmmmmmmm.... clear beverage craze.

Did George Bush puke on the Japanese emperor in the late 80s or was it in the early 90s?

I vote for OJ.  Can you remember where you were when all the channels turned to OJ in the White SUV?  :o  Sick that all the channels broke to show that coverage.
