    Okay, two more chances for teams to win three in a row, one of which should have been easy (apparently this curse is stronger than the Revs' having never won when they give up the first goal), and neither happened. That's 25 or 26 times this season. If I'm Columbus, I wouldn't even bother showing up on Saturday.

    You know, this could get really interesting if it continues until the playoffs.

    The Fire would have won on Saturday if I had not been there. Unfortunately, I still have a perfect record in that regard.

    So your jinx is more powerful that the 3-game MLS curse? Peter Wilt should PAY you not to come to games!


    Seriously, it's pretty weird that noone can win 3 in a row. Even in a parity-made league like MLS, just on a fluke someone should win 3 in a row.

    Galaxy can't do it either

    Defiently seems to be a curse. Galaxy should have won last Saturday against the Burn.

    But, on a lighter side, if the G's had won and thus won 3 in a row; I doubt they could continue and win 4, 5 or even 6 in a row.

    Maybe the G's can be the first to do it now.

    Yeah, at home against the Revs. That's what we thought, and we are statistically your equals.

    This just got much more interesting, anyway. If I'm Tino, I'm betting the farm on a draw. I'm telling you, it's a curse.

    NE will break the curse

    We are on a roll and will defeat Columbus on Saturday becoming the first team this season to win 3 in a row.
