In basketball, leaving a three point shooter open is the worst. Worse than any option listed for basketball....particularly late in a game but, really, it sucks at any point in the game. That shyt is demoralizing before it even leaves his hands :snoop:

A Pick Six specifically. I said interception because of just how infuriating it is. But Blown Save is more "costly" so to speak because it implies that its late in the game and the win is lost

missing a penalty in soccer.

1. the fact that you're in penalties means you're in the late stages of an important competition, or in a cup game, so if you lose you're OUT. you never lose in penalties and get a second chance.

2. the fact that you're taking a penalty pretty much means the game is on you, and if you miss your team is most likely gonna lose.

it's not really a 'mistake' but you can see it that way.

Depends on the circumstance.

A blown save is the most crucial, since your team is on the verge of winning the game.

But a Super Bowl winning TD INT with 5 minutes left is gotta be the most ether to your soul if that was your team:skip:
