Goat: Hey, Rat. How's everything going? Rat: Great. No problems at all. Jinx 1: Ohh? Rat: Who the #$@#@ are you? Jinx 2: The jinxies. You bragged about having no problems, so we're here to !@#$% your entire life. Rat: Knock on wood! Knock on wood! Knock on wood! Jinx 2: Too late.

The Jinxies attacked University of Texas Mack Brown’s serenity after the 2009 BCS Championship season. He had the audacity to say, late in summer practice and before the first game of the 2010 season, that his team was so good they could have some fun in the games to come. It was a bad year. They went from 13-1 in 2009 to 5-7 in 2010. Beware the Jinxies.
