I think this one might be the worse jinx I've seen at SBR - Louisiana Tech (+7.5) and East Carolina (+6.5) were the bets. After Q1, East Carolina was winning 10-7 and LA Tech was winning 14-3. Someone posts that the bets were looking good WHICH WAS AN OBVIOUS JINX.

East Carolina only scored 10 points for the rest of the game, LA Tech didn't score another point. Both teams lost and both bets failed to cover.

WHY DID THIS PERSON JINX THE GAME???

People at SBR are not happy. Please stop jinxing games, people.

looking good so far on LA Tech and ECU

Thats a jinx if ever i saw one.

wow total jinx in effect. wtf is wrong with you man. way to totally screw alot of people.

Yup, was just about to say something.

Anyone who believes in a message board jynx really needs to get laid, like if your message somehow affected the outcome of a game hundreds of miles away

LOL...... so true

[Regul8er]

Couldnt agree more UntilTheNDofTimeE.....people need to realize that a comments on a message board have ABSOLUTELY NO effect on the outcome of a game! Lets get real here people!

[tacomax]

That jinx screwed a lot of people - if you had been jinxed like that then maybe you'd think differently.

[Regul8er]

cmon tacomax.......need to get off it bud. Whether someone made a comment or not, the outcome of the games wouldn't have changed. With as many posts as you have and as long as you've been in the community, you can't truly believe in a jinx (at least I'd like to think not)

[Regul8er]

Sorry guys, there is such a thing as the Nicky Santoro jinx. I've seen it.

[DeeWizzle]

I can make this better for everyone. If the "Jinx" really does exist then the reverse "Jinx" must also. So...

Everyone post in this thread on how I won't win the Lottery tonight and then when I do, I will pay everyone back their losses for this game.

Here's one more. Oregon -13 is a LOCK!!!!!

There, I Jinxed it. So go all in on Purdue.

[RogueScholar]

Did Pags pick up some bad juju? These were both on his card, or so I'm told...

[reno cool]

no, no, no. There's no such a thing as a reverse jink.

Throw in the Car and a kidney too.

[Masu485]

i just put my house, first born child and soul on this now

i never understood putting ur soul on the line. do u get like a 2nd life if u win? if so that would be amazing. i just hope u dont instantly die if u are losing and the final whistle goes off.

and first born children are generally useless, no offense. they are often worse looking than later siblings and have more psychological problems.

[blackbeSSt]

Throw in the Car and a kidney too.

well the L card was throw.......so what the heck! DONE! i hope betjamaica loves my kidney

[Willie Bee]

Q3 review is around the corner, right?

People not understanding Taco's dry humor is a lock.

Oh shit, I jinxed it, now there won't be clueless people posting in Taco's threads.

Dr., never under estimate the Under on the IQ of the masses.

[RoagBettor]

Jinxes are real because we all live in separate realities, like our own little universes. Some were affected, some were not.

It's a cosmic thing.

[MJFtheGenius]

I had La tech and East Carolina.....thanks guys

[blackbeSSt]

well if it matters i didn't really put my house, kid, soul, car and kidney up on purdue!

[RoagBettor]

Don't believe in jinxes? Chicago Sky were up 19:

Then you are bound to lose all of them because of the jinx.

[blackbeSSt]

but how can i lose something i didn't put up

[Cougar Bait]

The jinx knows you made that post. The jinx is a complete asshole. He'll take what he can, and leave you with the leftovers. It's just like socialism.

Maybe. If I were you I'd get some friends at ACORN, cheat on your taxes, and tell everyone you know what's best for the economy. However, you are not allowed to have any previous business experience whatsoever. That is key.

Good handicappers don't believe in jinxes.

[DeeWizzle]

Jinxes don't believe in good handicappers

[hhsilver]

I think anyone who was a victim of this jinx should not have to count those losses on his w-l or unit record. Thanks, Taco, for alerting us to the danger of commenting while a game is in progress.
