I think I might start 70 individual "official" threads right now, calling all the Tigers games. Plus one or two for a few Olympic Events. And some golf majors....
 Just kidding |
I started all but 3 or 4 threads for the Wings and someone else was so excited that they started the Game 5 thread. Of course the Wings lost Game 5 so it was decided that I would start the thread for Game 6.
When I got home and sat down at my computer at 6pm to start the thread, another person had just done so. So that person's thread was deleted.
Superstition. That's all.
