I showed incredible restraint last night.

Every time I watch LSU Baseball on tv, something bad happens. Last night I tuned in, and Coleman got in trouble, and Money came in, and, just like that, we’re down 2-0.

I had a decision to make: keep watching and bring my bad mojo to the team, or turn off the tv and miss the biggest game of the season. I dug deep, took a breath, and turned the tv off. You’re welcome Tigers. Whatever it takes.

You should have seen the scoreboard early in the game when we were down 2-0.

Same here. Had to coach my daughters t-ball team at 7. Down 2-0 when I was watching, then up 5-2 when I wasn't. I got to watch the last 3 innings when we didn't score

Throw your TV away before the game even starts tonight. Let’s not take any chances.

I watched the last game that Skenes pitched. He’s the only one with enough power to overcome my bad mojo. Even I can’t stop that dude. His Chuck Norris energy is too much for my tv curse to handle.

I'm the same way...lol. Gathered at a friend's house to watch and fry fish for the game we lost. Watched the next game by myself at the house and we won. Haven't changed that since despite invites to go elsewhere and watch.

My daughter put her gabby gabby TV show cat ears on my wife the game we eliminated UT. We will be wearing the same outfits every evening and she will be rocking those cat ears every game until our Tigers see this thing through!

It wasn't you. It was me. I took one for the team last night and didn't watch a single pitch.

Gonna admit that when the ump called those 2 strikes balls from Coleman I switched to the radio call for a while and cleaned up the patio/grill. Couldn't handle watching a ridiculous strike zone again. Didn't put it back on the tv till the 5th inning.

In game 1 vs. wake I went upstairs to bathe the baby in the 6th inning when Floyd imploded. Last night i pulled the game up on my phone and brought it with me for bath time.

Sorry but you can re-watch tonight's game tomorrow. Take the family to a restaurant that doesn't have a bar or TVs. Don't even check in here. Sorry it has come to this, but you know what is right.

For the team. Whatever it takes.

For the record, I did the same thing Monday night. Picked up the kids at my parents in the bottom 2 and stayed until the 6th. Got home in the 6th and you know what happened. Last night I decided to watch the game at their house. Got there after the top 2 and well you know the rest. Didn't leave my spot the whole time after we scored.

In a peer reviewed study conducted by scientists, it has been proved that who watches a game, what position they sit, what clothes they wear, who they root for, or what they drank during the game, has no effect whatsoever on the outcome of the game.

The scientists were beaten with foam fingers.
