You obviously weren't trying to jinx your boy Smoltz when he had one going. And if I remember correctly, he not only lost the no-no right after you posted, but also gave up three runs and LOST the game, when a bunch of posters had the Braves that night.
Like I said, it might be retarded and superstitous, but why fuck with it anyway? There's a reason players don't talk to a pitcher when he has a perfect game or no-no going in the dugout. There's a reason some players don't step on the baselines when crossing over between innings. Etc. etc. etc. Why fuck with fate? That's all I'm saying.
And if an old-school hardcore baseball guy like Smoltz found out that a BRAVES fan did that shit while he was in the middle of his perfect game bid, the guy would be LIVID. So think about that. He's your boy.
There's a difference between having a sense of humor and fucking with one of the oldest baseball traditions around. That's all I'm saying.
