Not singing the theme song before a game (but that's because I can't sing lol)

Hoping my mother n law does not ring my house on game day. That's why I love Friday nite games am only home before I leave work in the morning she doesn't get the chance. Work early finish boozing the footy then casino lol. If we lose I always check to see if she rang when my wife gets home from work that night lol.

If we're winning during a game I dont like to move, so I dont change the forces occuring during the game...when we're losing, Im usually changing positions, washing my face doing something to change the sad events ... considering what I just wrote, Im considering seeing a psychologist lol... ;D :lol

I don't sing the song - haven't since 2002 and vowed not to sing it again until we play finals.  :thumbsup

Precisely Ramps, it's the forces.  That's why I point my toes in the direction we're going  :rollin
Can you get a quote for me on the psyche, because when we're losing I do the same as you  :lol

See, my mindset would tell me that I was doing something wrong there.  Did you ever think that if you started to sing again we could make the finals this year :thumbsup

But then again, I've heard you sing  :help

I knew a Hawthorn supporter who didn't change his undies during the week. More a case of him being cheap than a superstition, he could wear the club colours to the game without buying a jumper.


ok, so I made it up.

Exactly I am doing the Tiger community a great service by not singing ;D
