Earnest my dude, you have NOTHING to be ashamed of. You left it ALL on the field that day (NO pun intended) Respect Bro!!!
That was such a sissy way to force a fumble. Slapping at the ball like that, you got to be kidding me. Be a man and tackle the dude. The NFL should've been ashamed of themselves for rewarding teams that play like girls.
But he still fumbled
Fuck that if he was tired should said it then let someone else be the next man up
Came here to say the same. I admit that moment crushed me but even great players make mistakes.
You and Kevin were a helluva RB duo. You made us proud to Browns fans.
He wasn't good enough, just like the city of Cleveland.
As a lifelong Steeler fan, I remember watching this game. Cleveland fell behind 21-3 cause the defense couldn't stop Elway. Earnest Byner played his tail off in the second half, he's the main reason they climbed back into the game. The defense couldn't make stops, force turnovers nothing, so you can't blame Byner. I have tremendous respect for Byner and I would love to have the chance to meet him.
I am 53, and die-hard Denver fan since the age of 12. I watched all 3 of those great Denver-Cleveland playoff games. And obviously, I jumped up in celebration when Earnest fumbled- after all, it was against my beloved Broncos. What I also remember at the time was thinking "Man, that sucks I kinda feel bad for him" as a kid. Fast forward to present day as an adult, and just watching the man who fumbled that ball, bear his soul, looking straight into the camera, and I'm actually tearing up. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him and others who have had the horrible misfortune to be remembered for one bad moment. What that must do to a man- the feeling that he let down a his team, his fans and himself- I cannot fathom. And it is constantly brought up and on film. To the warriors who have had to deal with catastrophic heartache- The Byner's, Bill Buckners's, Scott Norwood's, Gary Anderson's- who have had simply brilliant careers and big moments overshadowed by one terrible moment, my heart goes out to you. All those teams aren't even in positions to win without you, and those plays are not your definition. You are all amazing. Thank you for your heart and love of the game.
Earnest, You messed NOTHING up. You gave us one of the greatest athletic feats in the history of the sport. You are a warrior. A Brown, An Inspiration and a brother to us all. Thank you and God Bless.
Earnest, I'm 61 and I felt that pain with you that day on the field in Denver, you left your heart on that field and we will never forget you, you were a great player !
I was born a Broncos Fan and was at this game as a 13 or 14 year old and was sick as a dog. My Dad kept asking me if I wanted to go home, but I was not leaving that game. I felt like I was cheering just as loud as anybody there and being so joyous that the Broncos won! Watching this video gives me a whole new perspective on this game. Now, at the age of 49 and a recovering alcoholic, I can understand trying and working on what you thought of as failures and mistakes. Nothing Byner did that day was a failure or a mistake in my eyes. He played in a game that he worked so hard his whole life to play in and he played admirably! Only in his eyes, did he fail or make a mistake. I can understand that thinking. Fumble or no fumble, he did something that day that only he could have done. I Love his attitude about what happened and how he uses that to succeed from that point on. That team may have deserved to play in the Super Bowl that the Broncos ultimately were destroyed in. The way he described how that Browns team played as a team and were so in tune with each other, makes me think that they would have had a better chance in that Super Bowl. I am a fan of Earnest Byner because of this game and the fumble. How ironic it is that a Hero like Byner can come out of losing a game and become a Hero to fans of the opposite team and not because the opposite team won, but because of how he has lived his life since then because of it. Thank You Byner for being who you are!
This is an amazing autopsy of that game. I close my eyes and it was 87 again. Wow. Much, much respect to Mr. Byner. The Fumble is a microcosm of Life, for all of us. We all have "The Fumble" in our own lives.
My Hero and favorite Browns ever I cried a 7 yr old Cleveland kid when it happened, then cried again nearly 30 yrs later when I yelled to Earnest and he grabbed my hand and we both said " I Love You Man" at the Cavaliers Championship Parade
Whew! Got me all choked up...Mr. Byner, Browns and NFL fans everywhere, love you!
This was an incredible and excellent intimate interview of a player who was man enough to own it. Thanks for the upload. Byner is great man.
You are always a hero in Cleveland and beyond. Met you in Phoenix a few years ago. Maybe you will come see the die-hard Browns fans in Texas someday. ❤
This really should be in a viewing room in the pro football HOF. Not because of anything to do with Denver winning, but because it has everything to do with elegantly and respectfully handling oneself in one’s most trying time.
We loved you then and we love you now Ernest. You never needed to apologize to us. You were our heart and soul and we aren’t even in that game without you my Brother!
Wow. This is awesome. So well put together. Great job by Earnest. I always love to hear the old players remember all those details. Earnest is a testament to the game and to life itself. He didn't let one play define him, even though it's what everyone remembers. He owns it, but he played a high level for another decade. Only Marcus and Emmitt played more games as a running back. And he got to the top with the '91 Redskins.
The last great game for the Cleveland Browns. We love you Earnest Byner!!
The last great game for the "real" Cleveland Browns. They will live forever in our memories!
@@g.bennett4899 Agreed. Never could root fully for the replacement Browns. Started with a strong dislike of the new stadium and its security cam overkill weirdness, then ownership packaging the Dogpound as a Browns' thing to sell (no you a--holes, the fans created that!), and the list goes on. 27 later and I'm still bummed about losing the real Cleveland Browns.
I’m a Denver Broncos fan, but I really respected and loved the way Byner and Mack used to play.
Same here...I have mad respect for Cleveland taking the Broncos to the wire in 2 of 3 AFC championship games...I almost had heart attacks and I was relatively young 25
21-3 down yet this team fought hard and had a lot of resolve, even if "the fumble" happened. I love how Byner is so retrospective of a definitely difficult game to talk about. He was so epic in so many ways for this Cleveland team.
Had a chance to talk to earnest at a game more than a decade ago. Sitting in the end zone with my dad before the game and earnest walked by. We didn't recognize him until it was too late.
So badly wanted to share that he was a part of one of the greatest sports moments I experienced with my dad. Fumble or not, it was a great moment. We celebrated around the house thinking we won the game. That moment was full of true ecstacy.
We eventually figured out what happened, but wouldn't trade that moment for the world. Thanks for being a part of that memory (and many others from those great years). Back then, I thought those types of moments happened all the time.
Earnest, you are a strong man to speak about this from the heart. As a 17-year-old watching that game, I felt some of the pain. I wish I could take more of the pain away now. I’m tearing up a bit.
It may sound strange, but moments like the fumble are what cemented the love for the browns in my soul. When they hoist the Lombardi, it will be the greatest release of joy and emotion. I hope Ernest has a prime seat in the parade.
Earnest Byner will be the M.C. for the Cleveland Browns super bowl parade and deservedly so.
Earnest Byner will always be remembered for being a Cleveland Brown, but we Redskins fans will always be thankful to him for helping us be one of the most dominant teams in history in the 1991 season - 14 - 2 regular season, cruised through the playoffs, and winning Superbowl XXVI
I am a Browns fan but have always sort of liked the REDSKINS. Thank you for crushing Elway in that SB.
I was thrilled for EB and the 'Skins in 91. He was such a great runner those years. It was nice though that he was able to come back to Cleveland. Yes, in my mind he wears number 44 but I think he was at his best wearing 21 for you guys. I'm glad he was able to be such an important part of that Championship run in 91.
I am a life long Cowboys fan. I had a lot of respect through the years for certain players in the NFL and wished the Cowboys had them on our team. You sir, were one of them.
SAME HERE EAGLES GREEN
Byner was the heart and soul of that team. I never saw a player who gave so much.
And I still respect the heck out of Bernie. A Bronco lifer.
The reaction he had for the 60 seconds following the fumble showed you who he was (this video only confirmed it). He rolled over with shock/grief for about 3 seconds in a manner that acknowledged who he let down (teammates, coaches, even fans) and then got up and walked with shoulders back and face mask up acknowledging that what’s done is done and I will face the lumps that come my way.
This. Is. Leadership.
Mr. Byner, as much as those late 80s Browns losses hurt me as a fan, I am sure that it's nothing compared to what you have had to deal with all these years. You are one of the main reasons we were even in that game and your heart as a competitor is absolutely legendary in Cleveland Browns history. You're the type of player that made me a Browns fan forever. I loved when you came back and I always rooted for you when you played for other teams. Hell of a career man! Thank you for giving your all to my Cleveland Browns!
"I never met a player that got more out of his talent, and he was talented, than Earnest Byner, and he gave it to you every single play." -Coach Marty Schottenheimer on the verge of tears talking about this moment. A guy like Schottenheimer doesn't get emotional or just say things like this for no reason.
No real fan of any team gets upset with any player that leaves their heart and soul on the field like Byner did. Real fans pick up a man like this for everything he gave them. The shot of him laying there after the play is powerful. The shots of Kosar and other teammates consoling him are powerful as well. It's the painful luck of the draw in sports sometimes. Credit to Byner for having the mental strength to not let it define him like so many would.
Earnest, don’t know if you see these, but you are loved bro! You were a beast, the heart and soul of my Brownies!! Thank you for your hard work and passion! Love you bro! Wouldn’t have even come close to this game if not for you!!
My heart ached for you that day..you were such a warrior. You are a man, in every sense of the word.
It was a team loss - the fact that people blame Ernest is b.s. all the way. They played from behind the whole game and even if Ernest scores Elway gets the ball back (who knows what would've happened). I had nothing against Denver but was cheering for the Browns in hopes for a bit of redemption from year before. I was already let down by the first game (Vikings vs Redskins) where the Viking's made one of the dumbest play calls in the final seconds and lost the game. This story replay is like Ernest is in a zen moment the way he tells it - totally awesome video. This man took the team on his shoulders in the closing minutes and his determination showed. Still, team loss. Final note: Ernest looks like he could still play....damn! plus one more I can't imagine what Browns fans are going through right now send this team a miracle!
I have nothing but the utmost respect for you. Acknowledging that it was a team loss and not a single player loss is what earned you my respect. And I hate that Browns fans still blame only Earnest Byner when he was literally the only one who played like he wanted to win. Bernie Kosar too. Webster Slaughter and the defense are to blame in my eyes
SGT51051992 so true. Erny kept us in the game. Our infamous members of the "dawg" defense were totally defenseless against Elway for the 2nd straight year. Our defense failed, not Ernie.
He always went all out.A great player.
AmaIng breakdown by an amazing man. EB just took me on an emotional journey.
Watching that game with my family (my brother was home on winter break) and my best friend, who was a Broncos and 49ers fan, it was brutal... I initially cheered when I saw him tumble into the endzone, because, the tv angle was from the back, so I couldn't see where the ball had been punched out, lying on the field, where the other defenders pounced on it. I can still hear Steve's cackling laughter and all 5 of our hearts lying on the floor... All my Dad said was, "Go home, Steve...right now." I was ready to stab him, my dad wanted to shoot him, and my mom was picking out a place in the backyard to hide his body. :-P That year, the Broncos went on to play against the 49ers, who were LOADED... Montana and Young both had unbelievable years, and Rice shredded the Bronco secondary... The final score was 55-10. Had the Browns played them, it would've been just as bad.
@@bryanhallman8183 LOL
@@bryanhallman8183 I disagree with your last point. I believe if the Browns had made it to the Superbowl that year, it would have been a much closer game.
@@williamanthony9090 No, the 49ers were super hot going into that game. Bernie might've been able to do a little better than Elway, but, the Browns still would have lost.
This is seriously one of the greatest TH-cam videos ever
Thanks!
RightOn
It IS right Earnest! The Browns don’t get there without you. It was an incredible performance of endurance and heart...and sometimes you just get overwhelmed with fatigue. To go into Mile High and perform like that?? Legendary man! Love the Browns forever
Lifelong Browns fan, I watched every second of that game as a kid, and though it was heartbreaking the way it ended, you were the reason we were even IN that game. You’re still one of my all-time football heroes Earnest!
To further illustrate how life can be crazy, unfair and random, two weeks after this game, in Super Bowl XXII, the Denver Broncos, were eviscerated by a running back who was out of the league within 2 years. So much glory that back received, and so much scorn for Byner. The man in this video has come to grips with that and has succeeded in spite of his fumble.
I thought that for the last 31 yrs man lol the Browns had Mack and Byner Timmy Smith was no where on their level smh
Does anyone remember that Earnest Byner became the leading rusher for the 1991 Washington Football Team (Redskins) and won Super Bowl XXVI? Redemption would happen in 1994-1996 when he became a Cleveland Brown / Baltimore Raven again. Very powerful retrospective. This is football ladies and gentlemen!
Timmy Smith was an unknown then, and is still a virtual unknown now...Because outside of the Washington [fanbase of the 80's] not a lot of people know much about him, In fact nearly everyone's focus to this day was about Doug Williams and as for Mr Smith the then {Redskins} offensive line {The Hogs} gets more love than him.
@@BIG-D-STAR now Smith is ironically known for being arrested and serving prison time in Colorado
Doug Wlliams and the Redskins pummeled Denver in the second quarter alone... scored 4 Touchdowns..... its like Washington called the Browns and said we got you
I was pissed at this guy for years afterwards as a kid. Looking back, the Browns don't sniff the playoffs without this guy. How can you be pissed at a guy that always leads your championship caliber team in rushing AND receiving?
Well said Michael!
Marty Schottenheimer is the guy you need to be pissed at! Coaches lose championships.... and clearly Marty Schottenheimer lost this game
@@prettynoose8497 and Webster Slaughter. His lack of blocking on the fateful play was the cause of the fumble.
I was pissed as well and cursed his name for weeks!
But if you look at the replay of the fumble if Webster Slaughter makes a block instead of standing there, then there is no fumble.
It happened a long time ago so it is all good. You were a great team player Earnest thank you!
@@sickofguysnamedtodd2293 you are right on! Good call!
Damn!! That's so painful to watch over again. Byner had played a heckuva game that day.
You were amazing, win loose or draw, thanks for the memories, it’s been along time since we had any, God Bless!
My, my, my, my, I feel it all over again! What a game Byner had that day. They were "in the zone" in that second half and we all could feel it. Oh the pain we all felt at 1:08 in the 4th quarter, but man, what a ride...and what a great team! Loved you all then and love you all now. Browns for life, baby! Ernest Byner, you da' man! Thank you for making such great football memories for me and my Dad (1939-2018)) to enjoy together!
60+ years a Browns fan and this broke my heart but Earnest was one of the best and I still love that man. I was conflicted that day but over time I get it. Earnest was awesome and still is. It isn't what life throws at ya. It's how you work through it that means something. Good job Earnest
Earnest was a great running back. And he gave it everything he had in this game.
E.B. One of the best!! Nothing to be ashamed about!
That was one of the greatest FB games I ever watched. I’m a lifelong Browns fan and Mr Byner you played your heart out.,All you did. ❤
You did 75 % of the work dude raise your head,be proud!
You had absolutely nothing to be ashamed of; Earnest, and a HELLUVA LOT to be proud of! You wore that Denver Broncos Defense, OUT that day. Denver got what was coming to them, 2-weeks later against our Redskins! You come to D.C. and contributed mightily to our winning the Super Bowl against Buffalo!
Man , I always rooted for the under Dog . I loved watching Ernest. play . He was Tough !
I will never forget that moment. I was 11 years old and had just really started watching football 3 years prior to that. My dad was dropping me back off to my mom. We were driving and listening to the game on the radio. The announcer called the handoff and was saying he was at the 7, the 6, the 5, the 4, the.....fumble. I was heartbroken. Keep in mind I was 11 and life's priorities were way different. I bet my father my weekly allowance and lost it lol. I could only imagine how he felt. Regardless of that play, I am honored to say the EB wore the orange and brown. He will always be part of the Dawg Pound. Somebody else had mentioned how this was a team loss and that could not be any more accurate. This is a very similar incident to the missed field goal in Chicago a few weeks ago. Everyone wants to blame Parkey, but he had already accounted for 9 of the 15 points that had been scored to that point. I'm just glad that social media did not exist back then.
Earnest is a Legend and great player. Thank you for everything
You win as a team and you lose as a team. Many people believe if that one play did not happen they would have won. Its never one play, Thanks for sharing your experience, I am sure that was a heavy burden to carry, you did the best you could, its all anyone can do.
I was disappointed in the loss but never hung the blame on you Earnest. I loved that season. Thank you for the memories.
You are the man Earnest, always played your heart out. We could have never been there without you. Its all Gods will ! Thank you for all the great years in Cleveland. Browns for life...........................................................
This was the first time I realized Webster Slaughter dogged and didn’t make a block. Looks like if he does that Byner walks in.
This is true, I never realized it until watching a TV show on the subject and Coach Marty Schottenheimer pointed it out, I cannot watch that play since then without seeing #84 fail to make the block on the man who knocked the ball out of Byner's hands.
Wow! As a lifelong Broncos fan I have an incredible amount of respect for Earnest Byner. I wish he had not fumbled. I remember screaming in joy when the play happened, but a short time after wishing he wouldn’t have fumbled because of the pain you could see in his face on the sideline. He played a brilliant game, which is largely forgotten now because of The Fumble. Had he scored instead, I believe Elway would have driven Denver down the field into field goal range with just a minute on the clock, and it would have been known as “The Drive II”. I guess the Houston game would have been The Drive III. Regardless, it takes a big man to face his failures head on, and Earnest Byner will forever be one of my favorite players. Let’s not forget the man went on to have a great career with the Redskins after the pain he suffered with The Fumble.
Denver scored at will that game.
I had the pleasure of meeting earnest in 2014. Extremely underrated running back and I thought he was very nice and humble as well. Trading him was another asinine move by Art.
But karma worked out for Earnest. He ended up winning a SB with the Redskins and I think most football fans could tip their hat to Earnest for becoming a champion.
I wouldn't call it asinine. I felt Modell wanted to get Earnest out of there. He needed a new environment.
That iconic shot of Bernie with his arm around Byner’s shoulder….gets me every time 😢 I was in college at the time and after the game ended, I wandered around campus for hours. The stars had seemed so aligned for Kosar and the Browns to do in Denver what Elway and the Broncos had done to us the year before. Somewhere, there’s an alternate universe where Byner doesn’t fumble, the Browns force overtime and go on to win. The decades long ripple effect that would have had… 😞
Mr. Byner: You were one of the Brown's greatest assets over the years. I loved to watch you play. One play does not make a season, does not make a player. You were great, and I appreciate your contributions to the Browns and to football. My favorite game of yours was 1988 week 16 against Houston when the Browns came back to win in a snow storm. Your play that day was outstanding.
Earnest looks like he’s in great shape at his age!!!
I absolutely agree with that! He probably still can run well for someone his age. I mean, he's not what he was in his prime, but he's at least still strong.
As a Browns fan I remember this game like it was yesterday. Took awhile to get over this game. Brutal,brutal loss.
Don't hang your head Ernest. I'm a CB fan and I'm here to say that there is nothing to forgive. You were a major reason the Browns made it that far!
Byner, Mack! Love that team. But Earnest was my favorite. Heck of a player!
I been a browns fan my whole life I'm 57 .I always said when we got our team back from Baltimore if we don't win the big game soon. It will never be the same .and here we are we lost our chance as far as I'm concerned our chances are over it will never be the same ..I cried watching this video we can't blame 1 guy .I would love to meet you and tell you in person we had a great team at that time
We haven't had a quarterback since Kosar.
Now we do.
That's all it takes. Get ready.
Cleveland will always love and respect Earnest Byner. Glad to see him win a Superbowl 4 years later in Washington.
We would not have been in that situation to tie the game if it wasn't for Byner who had the game of his Life , thanks for all the memories Earnest
In 1987 I’ll never forget this game! It’s embedded in my brain! After revisiting this video, I’ve got to say I’m sorry to you. I’ve been a long time Browns fan, and I have had many many disappointments! That fumble crushed me I hate the Denver Broncos to this day, with that being said, after watching the game, you have nothing to be ashamed of! And with that being said my heads off to you earnest, Byner will go down in history as one of the greatest Browns ever to play the game and as a fan I’m sorry for carrying this distaste of you for all these years. You see as time goes on the memory of that game only comes down to one play. It’s human nature and your reality even though it’s wrong in your mind, it’s right that’s who we are as people and again I’m sorry. Number 44 earnest Byner thank you for putting out this video.
I met him years ago at raquet time a Fittness facility. He was on a stationary bike and as got on another bike I said if it weren’t for you the Browns wouldn’t have been in the game! Thank you Ernest for having a big heart!!!
As a Broncos fan, the moment was great for Denver. But I was THRILLED that Byner won a SB with Washington in 1991. Byner deserved one for sure. He has had to live with this fumble his entire life. He was a GREAT player.
NOTHING BUT RESPECT SIR !!!!!
You have handled yourself with great dignity! Football is a game! You are class and teach people about life! I thank you!
I'm a Bronco fan but mad respect to Byner and the Browns they stood toe to toe with Denver in 2 of 3 AFC championship games...as you can imagine those were heart attack games for Broncos fans
Ernst…. I always cheered for you before and after the fumble….. you are a team player..
Earnest you were an amazing player!! I cried with you! No regrets!!❤
Earnest you are a big and wonderfull player.
My respect for you.
Regards from México.
Outstanding retrospective by Earnest Byner. Earnest Byner was the reason the Browns had the last minute drive to have a chance to try and tie it up. Webster Slaughter got caught watching the play instead of blocking Jeremiah Castille. Earnest Byner has nothing to be sorry for whatsoever
You're the man Earnest! Thanks for the memories. I have a print of Brennan patting Byner's helmet after the fumble hanging on the wall of my man cave. It's a picture that speaks a thousand words about the late '80s Browns.
Earnest, every Browns fan is always going to love you. We wouldn't have even had a chance to tie that game if you hadn't been there. I'm still ashamed of how you were treated afterward.
Lily finally got you after you beat him all day. That's the way of war. Cant win all the battles soldier, but you can give your all and you did. Salute. Thank you from a Redskin Fan
Even after all these years he is still a lover of the Browns. Miss those days.
You single handedly made it possible for us to win that game Byner
Earnest you played great that day.Big play after big play,after big play!Browns would not have been close had it not been for you!
It was one of the best games ever played by both teams. If either team had gone on to win the Super Bowl, this playoff game would get the respect it deserves.
This was a magnificent roller coaster.
Much respect to your Earnest! Man. I ached with you that day… I was so excited to watch you bounce back and continue to do well.
The essence of courage - raw, real, without remorse.
Earnest was the man. It was beautiful to see him get a superbowl.
I remember watching this game. Hey it’s sports. Fumbles happen part of the game. Gotta love it
You were pivotal to being there in the first place, there's so much that happens that would change the outcome of a game. No postmortem and Thanks! It was a rock'n season.
Love you man. You carried us there AND for the entire game. Byner was a beast.
Earnest...we wouldn't have been there if not for you! You where a great player.
Earnest Byner is an East Carolina guy. Much love!
Earnest Byner is an enlightened Zen Master
I was a kid but I remember being so mad but I can honestly say I never blamed Byner because he played so brilliantly and even till this day that era of the Browns is my favorite!!!!
Earnest you're a legend! Cleveland loves you forever. It was so great seeing you at the Cavs parade.
This has been one of my favorite Broncos moments........never looked at it from this perspective......good video.
Man one of the greatest moments in the nfl. EARNEST my friend the winds of change will make this right and you will be part of it cause the recors books are meant to be broken. nobody ever gave what you gave in that field and my hope is for you to see the dogpound alive and kicking one of the greatest games and a victory for the browns of all times my friend and nobody blames you my brother its just 1 play .And the winds of change will make this right .keep strong big dog
I think this thing to this day still gnaws at him more than savoring his eventual moment of glory( 4 yrs later) with the Redskins
Ernest Byner had a tremendous career and was amazing in this game.
You have nothing to be ashamed about You're one of the greatest running backs The Cleveland Browns have ever had your legend bro those were the good old days I remember of how hard we fought to win games you should be in a Hall of Fame
Watching my father's expressions during that game is what made me a die-hard fan today and since then!!! Go Browns baby Woof Woof Woof!!! 2020 Woohoo!!!!!!
So sad the fumble happened! Earnest we would have never been there if it wasn’t for you! Trying to dig out from a hole on the road is so hard ! Trying to dig out of a hole like that in the playoffs to a playoff team is almost impossible! The turnovers and poor play in the first half is why we lost that game ! We had a shot and Denver got lucky to get away with a win! So sad the browns so deserved to be in atleast 2 Super Bowls!
Nothing to be ashamed of, without Byner it wouldn't have even been a game.
Now people have this perspective, Ernest could have used that the last 30+ years
We? You didn’t play
We! That’s right we! We is the city ,we is the fans ,we is the community that stands behind our team and players ! Your obviously not a we !@@TL2354
What a warrior.
Nothin but love for u Earnest! We wouldn't have even been in that moment if it wasn't for u. Dawg Pound 4 Life!!
Nothing but R E S P E C T for this gentleman
As a fan, we know absolutely nothing of the true impact of a football player who commits a turnover. We bitch and cry about it but then we don't have a clue to what is happening in their minds. I've screenshot this video and will post it every single time I see anyone complain about a turnover ever again
