Ouchie,

Have you drafted up a correspondence to let the Pottsville mayor and council members know that we (Cards fans that will participate) acknowledge the rightful championship of the Maroons?

I think it has to be a legal document, as much as it can be in e-form, then e-signed by the particiapnts and sent to the correct parties in Pottsville, Tagliabue, and Mr. Bidwill.

I think if we get the legal letter out of the way first, it may be easier. If a trophy is still needed, then we can addresss that when the time comes.

CAN WE PLEASE GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF? How many ridiculous losses do we have to endure before we realize that this team is cursed!!! At least if we give them a trophy we can eliminate it as a possibility of why we blow it every time.

Ouchie, please spearhead this...

Well, unfortunately as supporters of this team, we are stuck with these losers for the long term, so we may as well do what we can to avoid this pain in the future. When this team wins a championship I really hope I remember how crappy these days are.

I am the only one with an income in our house right now, wife is in law school, but I will pledge $250. I don't need to eat. I don't need that crap, I just need the Cards winning and beer.

holy crap. how can i ignore this?

i know i've said i'd get on this EVERY YEAR SINCE 2003 (can't believe this thread was started in 2003 . . . what the hell does THAT say?), but can i ignore tonight? can any of us? there was close to $400 total pledged (w/o poo's insane pledge). i have a friend who worked for the company that makes the heisman trophy. i'm going to ask her about having a trophy made, or if she knows anyone that can find us a pic of the '25 trophy.

They already made their own trophy.

I've been trying to get some of you east coasters to go to Pottsville. It never happens. But if we can actually get a group together, I definitely want to go.

Screw the trophy, lets just invade their house and watch games there. It will piss them off. If we're going to break this, we have to do it in an unconventional way.

I've participated in threads like this before.

There is no need, there is no curse, it's just a game, the team making the crucial plays won the game.

We'll be fine and they don't need luck.

Karma, what comes around goes around. If one considers how much this franchise has lost and the strange ways we do lose compare to winning...no matter how strange it may sound...we define what a curse is hook, line and sinker.

We need to get a lawyer, to find out what needs to be done and what can be done. I'm in for twenty if someone tells me who to send it to.

uh, yeah, that's what we want to do - we want to make the curse somehow WORSE.

And don't say it - don't you dare say "Cheese... it can't get any worse than this", because you, me and everyone know, there's is NO BOTTOM of this pit, just more ledges to continually fall off of.

Ouchie, it's football season - once my pilot's done, it might be time to finally do what we talked about back in April.

40's "negative thinking" pysche makes more sense than this curse business.

If there were a "Pottsville curse" due to event which occured in 1925, then explain the Cardinals '47 NFL Championship.

God was too busy making it up the Jews after the Holocaust to worry about enforcing the well deserved Cardinals curse... that's my theory.

What if we go and apologize to the mayor and the people of Pottsville.

That'd get us on ESPN for sure.
