More Evidence of an ESPN Jinx?

Guess who was profiled on ESPN Radio this weekend. Mariano Rivera, perhaps the best MLB closer ever, handsome, humble, and not one to seek the spotlight. Alas, he (or his handlers) made the mistake of agreeing to do an interview with ESPN Radio that aired yesterday (05/15) morning. The result: Rivera gave up a grand slam homerun that gave a win to the Twins, ending that team's twelve-game losing streak at Yankee Stadium. Mariano, Mariano, please stay far, far away from ESPN. These are the folks that jinxed Big Brown, the Cavaliers, the Patriots (not that I care about that one) and who knows how many other sure things.

Read all about it here. Sigh.
