Summary

Originally aired July 2024. Ian Hartitz (Fantasy Life) and host Thomas Emerick want you to get in, because we're headin' back to Wildcat Season. Did it feel like a fever dream on rewatch? A question we'll try to answer, while the 12.5-point underdog Dolphins snap New England's 21-game regular season win streak — despite being on a 1-21 stretch(!) That all changes when Tony Sparano signs off on a play design where Ronnie Brown receives the snap and either runs, hands off to Ricky Williams, or passes to Anthony Fasano. And they debut it in Foxborough. This is Remember That Game, the podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey and chart the path of the zeitgeist.
