Cause and effect

I rarely watch football (or any other sport, for that matter) on TV, so so far this season I've been reading about the Steelers' great run. Then last night, I figured I'd watch their playoff game against the Jets. I almost had a heart attack. I can't believe how close they came to losing based on a punt return and an interception return. I don't want to take anything away from the Jets by calling those plays "lucky", but they're certainly rare. I feel responsible for the change in Pittsburgh's performance, as I changed my gameday routine. I think that for the sake of the team (and my stress levels) I may not watch next week's game.
