I Might Be A Bad Luck Charm, What Do I Do?

I actually feel a little weird writing this blog, even a little bit wrong. It sort of feels like I’m back in college writing a paper on a book I never read, which I did almost every week as an English major. Basically, I decided to try a little experiment yesterday. My first time watching a Saints game, Drew Brees tore a ligament in his thumb and is out “indefinitely”. Immediately my guard went up. Did I curse the Saints? Jeez, can’t a girl just pick a team to root for without ruining their Super Bowl chances? (Side note: did not know that super bowl was two words. I don’t care for it)

So this week, I didn’t watch the game. I kept refreshing the Twitter moment, I watched whatever notable clips went up after the fact, but I did not actually fire up the ol’ cable (I do not have cable, I’m a poor, it’s an expression) and watch the game.

And they WON. 33-27.

Uh oh. Starting to think my theory is less of a theory and more of a fact. So what do I do? Does this mean I can never watch a game again? Should I just watch other teams while secretly rooting for the Saints? Is there any way I can reverse my curse? Do I have to like, throw salt over my shoulder? Really confused and upset over here. I’m a football fan for ONE WEEK and I’m already fucked.

Please let me know in the comments if you know of any ways to reverse a curse like this, or if I’m just absolutely screwed for life.
