Obama Jinxes Steelers in Super Bowl

Posted on | February 6, 2011 | 13 Comments

Ever since the president put the curse on Philly, every NFL team has prayed that Obama wouldn’t endorse them.

Obama: ‘I’ve got some love for the Steelers’

Sorry, Pittsburgh fans: Packers by 4.

But at least Dan Collins can enjoy the sexy cheerleader at AOSHQ.

UPDATE: Everybody else has already blogged this, so what the heck?

    Saw that earlier today, sick people over there, usually an admirable quality.

    Finally something I can agree with him on! Go Steelers!

    I have but three words…

    GO PACK GO!

    However, in fairness to Teh Won, I will say that if he doesn’t root for the Pack, there’s some evidence he’s a real Bears fan – unless they’re in mixed marriages, they never root for the Pack.

    I’m not a football fan, but I would like to offer another reason to root for the Packers (this came to me VIA e-mail):

    “Every Red Blooded American should jump in line to support the Green Bay Packers! The Packers defeated the Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon, thus earning them the opportunity to go to the Super Bowl. By doing so, they saved the Hard-Working, Red Blooded, Taxpaying Americans literally several million dollars of tax money.

    How, you say? Simple… we were told that if the Chicago Bears had won that President Obama (and probably his family) would be attending the Super Bowl to cheer on his hometown team. Since the Bears lost, the President won’t be attending.

    The money saved from not using Air Force 1, the limosines, all the
    additional security, and let’s not forget Michelle Obama’s entourage, is literally several million dollars! Therefore every American should cheer on the Green Bay Packers at the Super Bowl to show them our gratitude.”

    Yeah, with any luck, the curse of jonah, aka oblahblah will be 10 & 0….he wrecked it for the Bears! At least he won’t be in Dallas in person, which he would have had they won. GO PACKERS!

    I hear it was the ice on the stadium roof that kept Obama away. He doesn’t like to be anywhere that anything (else) cold and slick would take attention away from him.
