Colin226 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) Ok so here's the story: I have a brick for my family at Championship Plaza.. I wanted to make it my pre-game tradition to touch the brick for "good luck" prior to games I'd be attending BUT.. every single one of the Devils loses this season has come after I touched the brick before the game.. The only home game I didn't touch it beforehand was the Carolina game (I wasn't at the Caps game this past Wednesday so I couldn't touch it).. Likewise, they have won every single game when I haven't touched the brick (includes away games too).. Remember, this pattern has been 100% correct through 13 games so far.. That's a HUGE coincidence if not something more The question is: Do I touch it before tonight's game? Also consider this.. The Devils have won every single game when I've made the GDT.. I made the GDT for tonight's game, so do I go ahead and risk my GDT streak by touching the brick? If I touch the brick then one of my streaks comes to an end tonight (either the Devils win and my GDT streak continues or they lose and my brick streak continues) You decide!

ghdi Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Dont touch it. Your instincts are already telling you not to. Trust your gut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Part of me wants to say it's too early in the year to be worrying about such ridiculous superstitions. But another part of me is also currently wearing the same jersey I've worn the last three games, so who knows. I'm gonna lean towards don't change anything up 'til they lose. 'Cause let's face it, they're not gonna win every game for the rest of the year just 'cause I wear the same dirty jersey or you don't touch your brick... ...I assume, anyway.

Devils Dose Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 showing your own brother up on the Devils forum? you're dead tonight keith... What's pretty amazing is that immediately after I posted that, the tagline read "NJDevs.com: Where our rookies haven't earned their place yet" or something very similar.

thelastonealive Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I think I'm changing my mind. Touch the brick. Then we find out which juju is stronger, Colin starts GDTs or Colin doesn't touch the family brick. Better we find out now than in the playoffs, yes?

LucifersDog Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Colin, I hoped you touch the family brick because you got a win. GDT another winner. You are on a hot streak. Devils 10-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin226 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 See? GDT juju > Brick juju. Your logic is sound.. but do I continue to make GDTs until they lose? I'm really not feeling a win tomorrow as much as I want it to happen.. Then again Marty will be rested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again Marty will be rested What's the strangely pained guy say in the MSG+ commercial..."You don't leave your seat if things are going well"...I say keep up the GDT 'til it stops working. But, that's just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatansDevils Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Good going Colin 6-0! You have 4-more GDT wins to go before you tie me, as I went 10-0 last season before my first loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
