Nothing like having a colleague that brings up something you would rather forget.
Dan Orlovsky of ESPN had to absorb a rib from Adam Schefter on Wednesday, which was the 14th anniversary of the most infamous play in his forgettable NFL career.
Yes, Schefter took time to remind Orlovsky that October 12 was the anniversary of the game the quarterback took a snap and ran out of the back of the end zone, costing the Lions a safety …
And making Orlovsky the subject of jokes that will never cease.
When people ask me “what’s your favorite part of working at ESPN/why did you choose to stay”?
I always say it’s the people. The relationships….. https://t.co/JtO7pYSnZa

What is lost in the fun and games is this was the season the Lions finished 0-16.
Oh, and the game against the Minnesota Vikings that saw the safety happen wound up a 12-10 victory for the Purple.
Yes, Minnesota won the game by two points, which are exactly the amount of points Orlovsky cost his team by running out of the back of the end zone.
