Number Four with a Bullet!

Yes, I'll admit it -- I'm slightly superstitious. I sit the same way and don't move my position during a crucial part of the game, as if it somehow helps my team. I only wear certain shirts while watching my team play, because I've worn shirts/jerseys before that always Always resulted in a loss for my team, so I don't do that anymore. And if I email some smak talk to my friends, my team always loses their next game. It's as if the Big Guy likes to feed that humble pie with authority, and with a sense of humor. Now, it's no secret amongst my friends and family that I am a staunch non-believer of ghosts or supernatural stuff or spirits or anything like that. I'm too much of an amateur scientist to believe in the human side of the unknown -- it's illogical to me. And yet I dread saying anything about my Sun Devils, because I fear they will lose their next game because of my bragging about them and their #4 ranking. In April of this year, I got on everyone about how I thought this was most definitely the year for my Dodgers, and they fell flat on their ass in September and not only missed the playoffs but were this close to finishing dead last. And around that same time in April, I was also boasting about how the Hurricanes would make it back to the Stanley Cup Finals, and they promptly missed the playoffs entirely. So there you have it. Don't expect me to say anything proud and loud about my Sun Devils. I'll let them speak for themselves.
