As we all know every time a guy goes to the Free Throw line and hasn't missed or the team hasn't missed they mention this and the FT is missed.

My question is Why the Fuck do they continue to do this when they know they jinx the FT shooter?

Yea man. Why do those announcers keep making the players miss free throws. The players actually hear the announcers say that and miss on purpose

Or how about in football when the field goal kicker "has never missed from this distance".

LOL if you think this way you are a loser. To think something that someone else says can make someone miss a shot is realy dumb.

Stop gambling you have no chance.

If that guy politely asked me to miss a shot, said shot would probably end up being way short or off the mark...

You just think it happens that way. For every time an announcer says something like "he has made 98 straight free throws" he will probably make the next one. You just don't remember the times they do. You DO remember the times that it happens opposite and then you think they jinxed him.
