THE BIG CHOKE

25 Comments

The word CHOKE has from time to time elicited many reactions, but the word also have many definitions. For instance you can choke to death on a chicken bone – you plain old choked up during a speech or somebody can choke you to death. However, Choke can also describe a circumstance where an inevitable outcome was assured, like they Choked. Two instances during the past 90 days invariably defines and puts the words into pictures more vibrantly.

The first big Choke was the devastating defeat suffered by Hillary Clinton; not only was she the odds on favorite from the beginning, but her victory was a “done deal” right up to election eve. Matter of fact plenty of the news organizations reporting that infamous evening of November 8, had Ms. Clinton at a 98% probability of winning as the early voting results came in. As the outcome became more apparent that this was not to be. Ms. Clinton, from what we hear, choked up real bad – this prevented her from giving a concession speech to her most ardent supporters, who by the way were shedding tears themselves. So in this instance we see two Chokes, her losing and here failure to speak.

And this past weekend, what some consider the Mother of all Chokes, the Atlanta Falcons who were given a 99% probability of winning the Super Bowl, CHOKED BIG TIME. Up by a score of 28-3 they ended up on the losing end of a 34-28 overtime victory by the New England Patriots. The 2nd half rout which ended in OT sealed their fate. Some will consider this the greatest Choke of all time.

None the less we put both the Falcons and the Clinton Chokes as  a toss-up for NUMBER ONE ON THE CHOKE list; now to be proverbial known, both of them as CHOKE ARTISTS. 

The opposite of these two chokes though was the climatic victory of Donald J. Trump who had a 1% chance of becoming President and the New England Patriots, who at all odds pulled Victory from the Jaws of defeat. Glad that the New Boston Tea Party was not only alive to witness these two surreal events, but relish in the fact that our guys did not Choke.
