Ted Lilly has a conceal/carry weapon in all 50 states. Otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to wear pants. Adapted from Seeley Booth facts which I took over to the Bones board when we did Ted Lilly facts which were adapted from Chuck Norris facts. Is that confusing enough?

Maybe this game could be our "something else." Here's hoping, anyway.
I don’t believe in curses or jinxes, but I do believe that a franchise (or even a city of franchises) can pass a point with its fans at which they expect bad things to happen — always, without fail — and the players almost get contaminated by that negative energy. Sadly, there’s no way to stop it; no pill to take, no exorcism to be had. It has to happen organically. For Red Sox fans, it was the Roberts steal. For Cleveland fans, Cubs fans and Bills fans, it will be something else. But it WILL be something else. It’s just the law of averages. There is no infinity button for failing in sports. At some point, things turn. They always do. — Bill Simmons
