Didn't he pretty much go off the reservation the next season, faking injuries or illnesses and threatening to retire to become a FBI agent or something?

The game itself is not scary however if you look at the players who were on the cover end up having injuries or head cases the following season.

Cool, ever play with coconuts and vinegar? I think voodoo is a religious thing tho. I merely referred to the much publicized and ballyhooed Sports Illustrated cover curse. Google it. It’s interesting. Hard to disbelieve stuff that happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more than well aware of the SI curse, and the 3 rivers stadium curse, and step on a crack and break your mother's back, and ya have to step on 3rd base on your way to the dugout from the field. I just don't believe in any of it. Nor have I seen any space aliens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
