The Superstitious Rituals of Sport

It’s that time again. Super Sunday. The Big Dance in Vegas. For many, it is the summit of sports. And, as with all sports, Us versus Them.

It’s important, and you care. Care in a way those closest to you may not understand. Care with a fervor that perhaps makes them shake their heads, leave the house, or both, when the game is on. That’s okay. Alone, you’re free to do what’s needed if your team is to do what it must — win! By any margin, by any means, at any cost. For, in the words of Field General Vincent T. Lombardi, winning’s not the important thing — it’s the only thing.
