Superstitions v Bad Traits
Average Rating: 1/10 Hits: 560 Submitted: Jul 5, 2008
Superstitions are what some people describe as beliefs or practises that people tend to cling onto even though it’s been proved the beliefs are untrue. Many of us have superstitions, some are rational, others tend to be a predicament for some. Do not walk under a ladder, breaking a mirror will bring you 7 years of bad luck, the number 13 is bad…so on and so fourth.
Bullshit. Superstitions are bad traits, refusing to walk under a ladder, being extra careful around mirrors and avoiding every black cat out there are not superstitions. That’s my opinion at least. Either way, superstitions/bad traits, they hinder my FM experience because I tend to involve them into the game.
Let’s take colours for example- I refuse to manage a team with light colours- Man City, Norwich, Palermo. I’m not sure why, I’m not bad sighted, colour blind or have problems with the colours in day-to-day life. I’ve tried a career with the teams listed, and they last about 3 games into the first season. I’ve contemplated changing the colour on the editor, but then for some strange reason it would feel like cheated the game.
Another bad trait I have is playing my favourite players before others. I tend not to play players that play exceptionally well on a week in, week out basis. In my Liverpool career at the minute, Gerrards 33 and not really cutting it, yet I prefer to play him then Toni Kroos, Gerard’s successor at the age of 22 just because he’s a leg-end and one of my favourite players to grace football.
This thought only crossed my mind recently when I was playing away to Man City, you can’t really tell they’ve scored because they’re kit colour contrasts with the flashing white we all love seeing.
