I'm sorry, but what does "Rue The Day" mean?

[SteveOS]

I've seen it a billion times on this site, just curious.

 

[YosemiteSam]

Basically means, You will regret the day you did whatever it is you did.

To rue is to regret. In other words, we will regret the day we ________.

it means that you will regret...for instance when we didnt draft randy moss, my brother always would say that we were gonna rue the day that we didnt draft him.

and he was right...because if i remember correctly, i dont think we have ever won a game against him, and he has always been a cowboy killer.

 

[theogt]

By definition, it means getting pummelled by a Kellen Clemens led football team.

We are rue(ing)

-The Galloway Trade
-Drafting Anthony Fasano instead of Devin Hester
-Drafting Bobby Carpenter period.
-Ryan Leaf, Quincy Carter, Chad Hutchinson, Drew Henson, Clint Stoener, Tony Banks, Vinny Testaverde.
-The Gailey/Campo years
-Shante Carver, Demetrius Underwood
-Seattle's K Balls
-BP wanting to take Marcus Spears at 11 instead of Ware. Not really ruing it, just interesting for those extreme BP apologists out there.
-Rushing Felix Jones back.
-Rushing Marion Barber back.
-The Marco Rivera deal.
-Thinking Drew Bledsoe was the answer for 7 games while the better QB sat watching.
-Etc.
