    I'm pretty superstitious. I'll pause the game during an opponents run, switch seats depending on the flow of the game. I'll allow and disallow my wife and specific kids in the room depengins on what's going on. My 18 month old girl has been a really strong good luck charm. The problem is that short of putting her in restraints, it's impossible to keep her in one place for more than 22 seconds. She'll leave andf inevitably the other team will start a run. I find myself running upstairs and scooping her up during these times. My wife just looks at me in disbelief as I race down the stairs with my little girl yelling to my wife "I don't wanna hear it"..

    It can be quite comical

I blame the wind, as I use mounting rings to hold my flags to their poles, and the mounting screw came out of the ring and was stripped, I guess better the mount to fail than flag damage. Don't worry, like yours is landed on the hedge. Given tonights chance of storms during the game I don't have it out today.

    Which means, no, I am not superstitious.

    Oh, when you mentioned your Xavier Nation flag, are you referring to this design:

    (I hope images are allowed here...)
    Yes. That's the flag.

    Where did you get that flag?
    I have a podcast. Sometimes we talk about Xavier: You. Me. Cincy.
    I put the X in Texas. @fleckd.

    I will admit to being superstitious. I am about to go look for my shirt to wear to the game tonight and just pulled the hubby's navy Xavier Nation shirt out of the dryer. I will wear my D Brown shirt which I have been wearing to each game I have been to since the shootout. I didn't get to go to the Tenn game so that shirt has only been worn to winning games. Why change what works?

    I bought my flag of that style in the gift shop in the Cintas Center. 2005-2006 season. Last time I have seen them in that style was right after the A10 tournament. I recall Gameday had one like it, which caused a run on the remainder of the bookstores stock. I don't think they restocked it.

    That Xavier Nation flag is sweet! I remember seeing it down at GameDay during the A-10 Tourney. I wish the bookstore would re-order it.

    If that is the case, I am glad that you didn't follow my advice and watch the game with your lawyer date.
