7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 As many of you know I'm am not superstitious at all, but I'd brought up our recent (past 3 years) run of bad form to some friends from Scotland and they had two suggestions for turning the tide: 1) Wear mini-kilts to the game (I don't know if regular kilts could be substituted or not, I'll find out) 2) Come to the game naked with a piece of heather stuck in one's ass. The only problems I can see with the suggestions are that arrest for public indecency is certain in one case and Scotland's run of form has not been the most stellar as of late (though Celtic's not doing bad). Anyhow this is presented as a public service. 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 7
Who's Heather, and why do want her probing your ass? Sorry, I will understand if my post is stricken from the record.
At the last game at RFK people were turning their shirts and hats around during the OT (I guess to reverse the tide so to speak). I can bust out the voodoo candles and cookies, they have worked in the past. K
i was pondering a similar dilemma. i got a new jersey with "stewart 9" the week of the chi game and have worn it to matches and viewings of subsequent games. we have yet to lose with my jersey on but of course we have failed to win also. so now what do i do? do i risk wearing a different jersey and we lose? or will we finally breakout and win if i change or add something?
I've heard of Heather....I'm not sure that she changes ones luck, but she does tend to keep your mind off the debacle. John
Wearing mini-kilts and sprouting heather out one's ass will only bring good luck if you're cruising for man love. Your friends in Scotland probably asked you for pictures of this, as well.
I am firmly convinced that there is little I can do to alter the outcome of any match in a positive way. Therefore, I focus on doing things in order to prevent disaster. Example, last season vs. LA - I called GdopplarXT after DC scored - result: DC United lost. This season vs. Colorado - I chose not to call GdopplarXT after DC scored in a similarly shocking manner - result: DC United drew! Not making the call saved us a point but thinking about it cost us 2... darn hex upon me! BTW - I am not actually insane because if you read Fever Pitch you'll see that he does similar activity and by all acounts Nick Hornby is quite sane!
I used to believe that the total number of "hot chicks" that I saw on my walk to the train station would be the number of goals United would score in the match that night.
No wonder, DC United can't score in a brothel with a fist full of cash... Man, Baltimore has dried up that much...
Given the blue on yer nose and ICT's recent expolits against the Hoops I thought you'd be a big Caley Thistle booster. BTW I'm going to "Glory of Gothenburg" party tomorow. Real pies, scots ale, mustaches, sheep jokes and all. We now return you to our regularly scheduled subject.
I'll try to look harder! Actually, I was in Manhattan for a meeting on Wednesday and I took the train, so maybe it will be a blowout for United after all!
