Oh yeah - there's a whole other category of "what might have been" games that still haunt me:
If Gordon Heyward's shot had gone in against Duke.
If poor Plano East doesn't give up a kick return for a TD (although that was still awesome either way)
If Chicago would have somehow retuned that 2pt conversion on Sunday
If Rocket Ismael's return hadn't been called back
If Jackie Smith could catch an easy pass
If Big Ben hadn't tackled that Cardinals defender
And of course - if Salvy had hit the ball just a half inch more on the barrel at the end of the WS. Or in Bumgarner had thrown it just a teeny bit lower and less inside. 2 run dinger - arguably greatest moment in WS history.
