Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

Playoffs superstitions?

Wearing my new, red Viva El Birdos under my unbuttoned Albert Pujols jersey seems to be my new good luck charm. They won the game I attended Saturday, and again when I wore it yesterday. I'm not washing them until we lose.

I'm also attempting to grow out a playoff beard, but it's hard when your face looks like Brad Thompson's. (I'm blogging about it at myplayoffbeard.com, if anyone's interested.)

Just curious what other superstitions my fellow birdos fanatics might have. I'm convinced that good luck charms are the only things that will help us advance through the playoffs. I'm doing my part.

This might sounds crazy
This season, I was the Fan Radio announcer for the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds and there was this girl that I had a crush on down at the ballpark and it seems like everytime the picture of the two of us holding a baseball together or another with her and some of my friends, the Cardinals win or something magical happens.

On yesterday, the picture popped up again with the help of the tray application on Webshots in the fourth inning and all of a sudden, Albert Pujols hits a homer.

What do you think?

Jack Buck was God's way of being nice to Cardinal fans.

My watch
My wife got me some cheap Cardinal watch from a website that does sports watches.

I wear it for every playoff game, even though it apparently doomed us during the 2004 WS.

I wear the VEB shirt for Saturday games.  But not to work, since I didn't wear it yesterday and we won.  heh.

Both during the season
and in the playoffs:

I wear the red Cardinal hat for home gome days, and

I wear the navy Cardinal hat for away game days.

Don't have a Sunday home cap, though.  If I had one, I'd surely wear it on the appropriate Sunday home game.

Well...
I've had the "playoff beard" working for about 30 years now... got tired of the ingrown hairs when I shaved, and Mrs. Goaler likes the beard.

I'm wearing my Cardinal Red jersey with the number "1" on the back, the Sunday hat when the Birds are on the road, and the home hat when the Birds are on the road.

Oh, and I'm talking to the TV again (after screaming "Send 'em! Send 'em! SEND 'EM!!!" during Speezer's triple t'other day...

Whatever works, right?  ;-)
