I am a jinx.

I have been to 5 LA Kings hockey games this season. Four of them at Staples Center and one at the Honda Center when they played the Anaheim Ducks. Know how many games the Kings have won while I've been there watching?

None.

Not one single game have they won in my presence. They came close once, losing in a shoot out, but they've never actually won the game. It's almost comical, if you think about it. They've lost 9 games at home this year, and I've been to 44% of them. They've lost 18 games all season, and I've been to almost a third of them. We have tickets to another game in March, and I'm almost afraid to go. They're in last place already, so it's not like they need my assistance in losing!

My jinxiness (yeah, I said it) doesn't limit itself to hockey either. My boy Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts (who I really think should be renamed Peyton Manning and Those Other Guys) lost to the freaking Chargers because I was busy watching a minor league hockey game rather than cheering on the greatest QB in the game (who's jersey I got for Christmas. So VERY cool.). I let them down and they lost. (Thankfully my Steelers crushed the Chargers last weekend. I would have been very close to wrist slitting had the Chargers taken out both of my teams.)

So, rather than thrill you all with the new masthead I've done, I'm going to keep the Steelers theme until they've completed their season. It's bad enough they have me as a fan, I don't want to bring more bad luck to them by beautifying my blog!
