I have this superstition: if I watch an important football game, the team I’m rooting for loses.  So I usually try not to pay attention to important football games.

However, today I watched — really watched — the Patriots-Colts game.  Especially the second half.

Oops.

SUBSEQUENT THOUGHT:  On the plus side, the Patriots’ loss means I can forego the silliness and hype of the Super Bowl.  I probably won’t even watch it, except for maybe Prince.
