The Fro-gurt is also cursed

Last night after the Broncos missed the play-offs with a loss to the mighty 49ers, I started to think that perhaps I carry a football curse. Here is a list of places I have lived over my life - Michigan, Minnesota, the Bay Area (Oakland and San Franc), and now Colorado. The Lions, Vikings, Raiders, and 49ers have suffered terrible seasons and awful disappointments. The Lions 1-9 in the play-offs. Chris Carter drops a ball that hits his hands on a possible game winning drive, Anderson misses his first field goal of the year, the Cardinals win with a spectacular catch in the final seconds knocking the Vikes out of the play-offs... Oakland lost in the playoffs when Saragusa tried to rip off Ganon's arm (When the booth announcers are bitching about the rules to protect the QB I think they should say "Hey Tony, can you figure out why the QB rules are in place? Do you remember a game where an unnecessarily aggressive hit altered the outcome of a game?"), the following year they are humiliated by the Bucs, then turn into the worst team in the NFL. The 49ers go from play-off team to the new Saints. Just when I thought the curse couldn't be worse, Darrent Williams gets gunned down last night at three a.m. So, beware readers, if you anger me I'm moving to the town your favorite team calls home just to prove how much I dislike them. Next stop Washington? Naw, that's too easy...

There is a place for you. It's called Wrigleyville, on the northside of Chicago.
