"DEVOS CURSE"


(Many Thanks to Mike Lafferty for this alert.) A new expression has crept into the sports conversation. "The Devos Curse" resulted when a certain candidate for Governor of Michigan came to the Detroit Tigers broadcast booth. Since then, the poor Tigers have been on a terrible losing streak. As one commentator said: "Now he's outsourcing our victories."

If you Google* this expression, you'll get an earful (eyeful?)
Whatever you do, Mr. DeVos, don't go anywhere near the Red Wings! Or the Chippewas, or the SVSU Cardinals, or the Bronchos, or the Wolverines or the Spartans. Go cheer for the White Sox.
