SO TIRED OF THE HYPE!

Matt Wieters doesn't believe in bad luck

and neither do I.

Bad luck is one thing, the SI jinx is something else entirely

The SI cover of Albert Pujols pinned up in my cube

begs to differ.

Am I excited, yes! Am I concerned, yes.

I fully believe in the Curse, need I reference the most recent example:

That's not a jinx

Ryan Howard has NEVER been able to hit sliders, and the Yankees (and fucking everyone else) knew it. That’s just SI acting foolishly.

Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.

That's SI trying to sell magazines

What’s the big deal? Of course Matt Wieters is on the cover of “Matt Wieters Illustrated”.

Wouldn't that imply something else?

It looks like it’s “Matt Wieters Photographed”

Let’s just call it “Matt Wieters Magazine” to be safe. I wouldn’t want to incur his wrath or anything.

Anyone know when this issue will be out?

Or is it already out? I’m a little clueless.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

A-mazing.

I wish they didn’t come with that stupid white address box on the front cover, because that would totally be getting framed.

by daveh873 on Mar 9, 2010 7:00 PM EST reply actions  

If you're really interested...

You could get a framed reprint from the SI website

Yea I know

I was explaining my theory to my gf that they put that printed white address box on the front so you have to buy the reprint.

by daveh873 on Mar 9, 2010 10:18 PM EST up reply actions  

I entertained the idea for about ten seconds

But then decided $99 was a little too much to frame a magazine cover.

by PhilR8 on Mar 10, 2010 3:15 PM EST up reply actions  

i wish you could get it unframed.

In one game as a freshman at Miami, Wieters hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth to put the Yellow Jackets ahead, then pitched the bottom of the ninth for the save. On that day, the God nickname was bestowed. - Sports Illustrated
