NEVER EVER say "it could be worse" or "at least ..... didn't happen".
That's a sure fire curse that will cause something to happen that could and may be worse.
Here's a point to ponder....
They had a show on one of the local channels: "25 years of Boston sport history in 25 minutes" (I think this is what it's called.)
There was an interview with Bill Buckner a couple of weeks before the world series, where he commented "I think it wouldn't be as bad to give up the game winning homerun as it would be to lose a game by having a ball go through your legs" (this probably isn't an exact quote, but close).
Talk about cursing yourself.
