Football is a meaningless game played between sweaty gargantuan millionaires. The results of the game have no impact on anyone’s insignificant, meaningless life. The results of this NFL game, or any sports event ever, has no impact on the greater good of humanity. The results are largely forgotten over time, and by the time everyone who watched this game is dead 100 years from now, no one will remember a single player who played in the NFL in 2017. Go do something good for your life before you die of heart disease. This sh!t doesn’t matter.

PS - A team with a black cat as a mascot is cursed

On the black cat curse, that idea possibly comes from pagan beliefs in the middle ages as cats, specifically black ones, were viewed by certain pagan belief systems to be good luck. During the Christianization of Europe (particularly Scandinavia and Ireland), goddesses like Freya and their symbols (cats) were demonized to make Christians more fearful of the pagans, which effected their trading with the rest of the world resulting in resistant pagans converting to Christianity.

 

I'm no scholar on this, but it makes sense in my head. We're not cursed. We just have an owner who won't let go of the old school football thought and coaches who don't understand adjustments and utilizing talent properly.
