:rofl:
The only flakes floating around football today are the folks who no longer believe in the Curse of Doug Flutie.
The Curse is alive and well and stronger than ever, casting its web of defeat around anyone who employs the architect of the Curse, Wade Phillips, and rewarding those teams that free itself of his shackles of ignorance.
If you didn’t believe in the Curse before, this is a good time to grab an oboe or sousaphone and hop on the bandwagon. After all, some phenomena are beyond the explanation of logic, science, human perception or, even, the blind, sober reasoning of the Cold, Hard Football Facts.
The Curse of Flutie is just such a phenomenon. It had a hand in both divisional playoff games Sunday, lifting San Diego to an upset victory at No. 2 AFC seed and defending Super Bowl champion Indy, and squashing the hopes of No. 1 NFC seed Dallas in historic fashion.
Most Cold, Hard Football Facts readers know the story:
The Curse of Flutie was born back in the 1999 playoffs and continues to haunt the Buffalo organization and any team or coach that employs Phillips.
