My signature links to my dynasty thread, where there is almost 51 seasons' worth of exactly that sort of "luck". Expect the worst - get the worst! From our most recent series against the Indianapolis Indians, picking it up from a 1-0 deficit in the sixth inning:

None of this made the Coons less of a wretched bunch, but Spencer led off the bottom 6th with a single that dropped in front of Siebuhr, then swiped second base. Gomez, the hot paw of the week (hey, at least one!) lined a ball near the leftfield line that didn't get past Siebuhr, but was still good enough for Spencer to score the tying run on the single. Kevin Harenberg dropped in a bloop single, and then the runners advanced to scoring position with nobody out on a passed ball charged to Dear with Hereford at the plate, who was then put on intentionally. OH YOU SNEAKY ARROWHEADS!! They knew exactly how to beat the Coons – by giving them three on and nobody out! YOU SONS OF – ARE YOU ****ING SERIOUS?? Mora popped out. Nunley popped out. Rocha popped out. Somewhere in between, I also felt a vein in my left temple pop as I screamed insults from my office above the field. Worse, I got a cramp in my arm from shaking the clenched fist so much and had to seek treatment from the Druid in the depths of the ballpark. Oh well, at least I missed the two 2-out runs the Indians scored off Delgadillo in the eighth on singles by Pizano and Dear, in between which Delgadillo kept fanning the flames rather than the batters with a walk to Zanches. I came back to my office, smelling like squeezed rat puss from the ointment the Druid had rubbed onto my sore arm, probably because it WAS squeezed rat puss, just in time for the bottom 9th where Mo Robinson had the tying runs on the corners with nobody out. Oooh, exciting – how were they going to **** up THIS one!?
