TNT Omits Flyers from Teams “Overcoming 3-0 Deficit” Reel
By Kyle Pagan
Published:
On Monday night, TNT ran an “Overcoming 3-0 Series Deficit” package during the Heat/Celtics game. They completely forgot about the Flyers in 2010. A team that won IN THE SAME BUILDING WHERE THE GAME WAS BEING PLAYED:

Bullshit. Lets feature the 1942 Maple Leafs, a team no one fucking remembers, but forget one of the greatest comebacks in sports. Who’s the B’s fan in charge of producing the game over there at TNT? The Flyers mounted the most improbable comeback of all time. They weren’t only down 3-0 in the series, but 3-0 in the first 15 minutes of Game 7:
In 1942 the Leafs won 3-1 in Game 7, during the last game in 2004 the Red Sox whooped up on the Yankees 10-3, and the Kings in 2014 finished off the Sharks 5-1. All anti-climactic finishes. Nothing compared to the electricity of that Bruins/Flyers Game 7. A comeback of epic proportions as it was described on the Versus (lol) broadcast. The Flyers beat a team that won the Stanley Cup the next year. This kid had seen like five Boston championships since he’d been alive and he’s crying like Simon Gagne killed his dog:
