    Superstition?

    Like I said in this thread, when I get a strong feeling, I rarely, rarely get a prediction wrong. It has happened to me so many times that I want to see if this is real, or if I am simply being superstitious (like Robert De Niro in Silver Linings Playbook).

    Yesterday, I was having a wonderful and busy day, then all of a sudden I couldn't get the Rockets losing out of my mind, so I was compelled to write the above thread. It wasn't smart, it wasn't planned, just compelled. Because it was a low probability outcome (Rockets losing at home to an opponent whom we dominated), I wanted to see if I could predict it here on CF, and I did.

    We all have some superstition in watching sports, right? Well, I really want to test this out with you, so I can get this out of my mind for good. So, please help by bearing with me. There will be for sure some ridicule, but it is a price for this. I am also inviting the mods to ban for a week when I get one wrong. It could be the next one, or a few games down the road. We will see.

    Thanks for helping. Also, if you have a strong superstition in regard to the Rockets, feel free to share.

    3/20 vs Utah = win

    you posted a link to your thread that was locked.

    that should have been a sign.

    this is not about you.

    Even if you felt that way you shouldn't be saying it as a Rockets fan.
