Excellent edits and comments, Jackson !! A couple of Q's:<br /><br />1) I really like your hex idea. What would you call the opposite of the hex? Also, perhaps underdogs should think of putting a hex on the other team (instead of on oneself)? And think: "Big moment + Big stage = Big Success (or Big Opportunity, etc.)?"<br /><br />2) I think many elite athletes hang on because of the love of the game, money, admiration, as well as the structure and camaradarie. But why do you think so many athletes (e.g., a boxer with a horrible win-loss record) hang on and risk (further) brain damage, etc.? Delusional about starting a winning streak, lacking an identity outside of being an athlete, pressure to continue from family/friends?<br /><br />Cheers, Jim
