I'm here to publically make amends.
Months ago, during that beautiful streak long ago...when the Habs were winning, and actually placed 1st in the Eastern Conference....
I wanted the team to lose.
It's true.
I didn't like how they were winning the games: lucky bounces, heart attack inducing third periods, doing just enough to get by but not enough to dominate, etc.
So I asked for it. I posted it, here, and said "I want the Habs to lose." And they did. And they continue to.
Being that I am a fan, I am almost positive that everything I do directly influences how my team will perform. Superstitious nonsense? Of course. But if drinking tea during a game, gosh darnit, you're going to do it.
So I'm repenting. I take it back. I never should have said that the Habs should lose. I'm losing sleep over this! PLEASE! FORGIVE ME!! I WANT THEM TO WIN!!! WIN, DAMN YOU, WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
