    No matter how many times we've seen them, it's still great to see those highlights, more than any other match.

    A magical night in our history that is for sure...

    For all the BS over the years from all sides, I hope guys like Dero, Barrett, Cummings, (and still with us guys like) Brennan, Dichio will remember that night when they look back on their time with us (when gone)...

    Oh man, seeing Nick Garcia's face pop up in that video for the first time brought back so many bad memories!

    EDIT: Also, seeing Teiter Tots standing there, fuming and unable to do anything, is priceless.

    OK, so we didn't advance to the group stages that year. But it was sweet at the time.

    You know what's funny? Earnie Stewart from that team is a dead ringer for Robert Earnshaw.
