King of the Jinx
Jeez. I knew my “It ain’t Tautology til it’s Over” post was flying in the face of all common sense on jinxing the season, but this is ridiculous. I noted that barring a sweep by the Phillies and a sweep by the Braves, the Mets may have it sown up. Since that post, they’ve lost 5 straight, getting swept by the Phils, who are back to within two games of first. Moreover, I have been wishing a monumental late season collapse on the Bosox. While they did meet their own broom at the hands of the Yanks, it looks like a monumental late season collapse on the part of the Mets. Terrible. I’m already hearing it Facebook-wise from the damn Phillies fans, who are perfectly in the right to mock these latest events mercilessly. I think Willie’s job depends on pulling out of this tailspin but quick.
