The Secret Discovered

I think I've discovered the secret to Oregon State's basketball team winning games.

If I tune in on television from the beginning, join the game in progress ..... even if they are ahead by twelve to fifteen points like the other night ..... or set the dvr to record it and watch later ..... they lose. If I give it zero attention, they win! 

Case in point .... today's game. I assumed it was an evening game so didn't give it a thought during the afternoon. Until I was driving home from work and turned on the radio to discover that it was over, and they had won. 

I can only conclude that I am the reason they are 4-13 in their conference this season.

Another good thing that happened today, probably because I wasn't paying attention. I stumbled upon and into girl scout cookie season. No matter how hard I try to abstain, I cannot resist the thin mint cookies. It's a singular obsession. I don't even know what other options there are. I looked at the choices today while my payment was being processed but it didn't register. The thin mints are manna to me.

The Yankees beat the Tigers 22-10 in the opening game of exhibition season. Looks like the batters are ahead of the pitchers by a football score. Just think what it might have been if the pitchers and catchers didn't always report to training camp early.
