Liveblog curse is real !!
Bill Simmons did a couple and the Red Sox tanked. He bailed towards the end of the second game and the Sox came charging back to win the game.
He decided to devote quite a bit of his latest podcast to this.
I implore you Brian, DO NOT tempt the gods for the Sparty game!

Have you not noticed the 3 liveblogs the past 3 weeks?
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:21 PM ^
they only count when they cause the team to lose. ignore our 3-0 record with 3 liveblogs.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:24 PM ^
worried only about games like Sparty and not Delaware State. Taking on a real opponent and the curse....thats too much even for the Force.

oh right because "liveblog curse" is something a seven year old would believe in

Yeah man, there's no way we could ever beat a real opponent on say a last minute drive if there's a liveblog. Oh wait...

There is a "liveblog curse". Fortunately, I was wearing my lucky diaper to counteract it.

If you recall
During BBall season I predicted --nay, FORESAW!!!-- that, as far as the University of Michigan is concerned, the liveblog curse would end when the civil war in Sri Lanka ended. Well...
It ended.
Bada bing. No curse for us. Let the Red Sox deal with it.

only applies to basketball. Every football game gets liveblogged recently, so hopefully is only applies to basketball.

Are we 3-0 or 0-3? I feel like this entire board is dyslexic or something.
September 22nd, 2009 at 8:57 PM ^
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

Maybe liveblogs only curse away games?
Yes! That must be it. Theory still intact.

I think the liveblog curse only applies when the team is not good.
