It's all about the foot wash...
If I can wash my feet in the shower without losing my balance, it's going to be a good day.
The morning of game 3, I lost my balance 2 or 3 times having to lean against the shower wall. Yesterday morning before game 4, I executed the foot wash with perfection...

Jigo, my lucky Banner 47 Cavs shirt is a little different than yours... you may indeed have one of a kind.
And funny sidenote - like an idiot, I didn't put my lucky shirt on until a good way into the third quarter of Game 3 (right around the time the Cavs were down 21 points). It was a carbon copy of the Easter Sunday game at Boston.
I didn't make the same mistake yesterday and made sure I had it on from the beginning. And we win by 23. Coincidence? This thing is road game tested and will be worn for all 48 minutes from here on out.

I watch the games completely alone. The only people I would watch a playoff game with have to be complete die hards as well and understand that there is no talking or anything to distract from what is at hand.
If I have to work, I record the game and let everyone know that I do not want to know one single thing about the game. I don't even want to know that it's 2-0 Cavs. People do not understand the passion and think it's kind of bizarre.
This is just for the playoffs...I'm not nearly as crazy for regular season games.
I will never forget that last year I was back at my parent's house for Game 2 of the ECF and after Turkey Glue hit the shot with 1 second left, my dad accidentally fast forwarded all the way through to the celebration.
I had walked out of the room after Hedo's shot so that I could re-gain my composure and not break something in the living room. As I was walking back my dad goes, "LeBron hit a 3, we won."
It was so weird because I didn't unknowingly watch it happen, I felt like it wasn't real. Even as I watched us celebrate, I just had the horrible, pissed off feeling in my chest. So surreal.

AGREED!
And my only superstition is wearing an I Love The Hype Shirt.
JJ Shirt is 2-0
Delonte Chicken Shirt is 1-0
Moonman Shirt 0-0
Down With the King 0-0
So far =D
For game 3 I was wearing a black LeBron shirt. Needless to say I'm not going to wear that on a game day for the rest of the season.
And Volume HAS to be on 17.

I just got this for free!! My brother in law works at a grocery store and this just came off the floor. They were going to have an employee raffle for it, but everyone forgot about it, so I was able to snatch it up. I'm so pumped, I love it!!!
I will now be shooting free throws with the team for good luck. It already worked yesterday! Wish me luck!!
Oh yeah, the timer and score keeping works!! I already have my wife practicing so she thinks she can beat me. :chuckles:

Just got out of the shower...
We have nothing to worry about tonight.
I actually thought about this when I was drying my feet in the shower this morning. Hahaha

Before playoff games, I rub my right nipple in a clockwise fashion.
If at any time we get down by more than 6 points, I rub my left nipple in clockwise fashion.
If we get down by more than 10 points, I rub the right nipple in a counter clockwise fashion.
If we are up by 10 points or more, I rub my left nipple in counter clockwise fashion.
If we win, both nipples get action simultaneously. If we lose, I neglect both nipples and instead braid my asshairs out of punishment.

Funny, I do that for playoff luck instead of growing a beard. Different strokes, I guess.

I drink straight Jagermeister for every playoff game. Out of the same miniature Guinness pint glass. I find that when I need a big shot or a 12-0 run, I should take a shot. This usually seems to work.
Also, if the game is close in the second half, I put a three song playlist on repeat that consists of Reality by Staind, Miseria Cantrare by AFI and Reborn by Drowning Pool. Long story.
Also, I never turn off the TV or change the channel under any circumstance. That's for little emo girls who can't face reality. I want to watch every second, no matter how blissful or agonizing.
