Confessions of a living baseball jinx

I have a confession to make. I am the reason my beloved Rangers lost this week to the Orioles. My southern hospitality and amazing hostess manners are to blame.

I loaned my lucky #32 Rangers shirt to a friend in duress (she needed a change of clothes for a walk of shame just a walk! a plain ol walk somewhere!) about a month or so ago – and the Rangers consistently put up poor performances since then, Josh Hamilton especially. I can’t believe it took me until Friday night to notice (and frantic texts/phone calls to please return a ratty old t-shirt to the other side of town immediately were not received very well), but there you have it. All. My. Fault. I’m a little afraid to come clean to all those intimidating guys but the air needs to be cleared, yall! Probably shouldn’t offer to buy Hamilton a drink…think he likes brownies? Ron Washington looks like a pie guy, amiright? Is this punishment for being friends with a Rockies fan?

Sidenote: Does anybody know where/how I can reach Josh Hamilton to apologize?

Second sidenote: How well does pie travel by mail?

we had some good times, me and my lucky shirt

    Pie travels scarily well in the mail. I personally know 3 Ranger’s fans. I’m sending them your way.

      I would be interested in how you know so much about pie travel?
